Why is reading a book on a computer monitor so uncomfortable compared to e-readers or tablets

It's because of the light levels given off by each type of screen. E-readers and kindles usually have less intense back-lights and limit blue light which I think is the one that fucks your eyes up if you stare for too long. Phones tend to be the worst because you're not supposed to be looking at it for too long and it needs to be readable in bright conditions also, so generally a much brighter screen.
 
Pirate the book and print it. Go to your local bookshop and ask them to print your .pdf book if they have printers.
This is what I do every time I need a book. Book shops near universities are often specialized in printing and packaging the copies into a book.

There is a cheap solution for everything in life.
 
I like curling up with a book or tablet and holding it close as I read. I'm not cuddling my computer monitor thus not as cozy.
 
I remember in the early 2000 when i downloaded converted books to .jar and read them in a Sony Ericsson

If i could do that, you can read just fine in current day smartphones and tablets

I used to put books on a flash cartridge so I could read them on my DS. It wasn't bad - low resolution, sure, but readable.
Tried on a smartphone at some point but the screen was too bright, hurt my eyes.
