I understand where you are coming from. I have a vison disorder that makes it hard to read so actual books were a pain when I was younger. I found my love for reading through comics like Alan Moore's run on Swamp Thing, Jamie Delano's run on Hellblazer and Matt Wagner's Gendel. The transition to normal books wasn't overnight but I fazed out comics for sci-fi and horror novels. I don't know how else to describe it but I have a mind movie that runs in my head when I read a book. Authors like Clive Barker and Stephen King helped out a bit(Barker does a lot of the art for his books, so stories like "The Thief of Always" had good visuals to go with the book).

Try audio books. I almost exclusively consume my books this way now.
