I always have to hear a voice when I'm reading, and while I generally read description faster than a normal speaking voice, when it comes to dialogue it tends to slow down a bit.
This is partly because (or mostly?) of my overactive imagination. Back when I was in grade 6 or 7, I realized that while I absolutely adored reading, what made it even more fun for me was to place characters from shows/fandoms I like into the story, regardless of whether or not their actual character matched the story character, and 'see' the story in my head: the characters looked like the ones from the specific show/fandom but dressed like they would in the world they were in, and all of the action sequences were played out in a way that I could 'see' them.
I mentioned this to my grade 8 teacher at a student/parent/teacher interview when he inquired about my reading habits, and he found it really interesting and even brought it up to the class as a way to make reading more enjoyable.
So, I guess there are plenty of different ways to read!
