I was surprised that it's both entirely possible and really difficult to read upside down text. Some of the what I read most often are the Harry Potter books; here's a video of the first part of the first book when read upside down. For added atmosphere, I brought along my homemade Monster Book of Monsters and recorded in a cupboard under the stairs.

Interestingly, Harry is specifically mentioned reading upside-down at one point in this book (when he reads Hagrid's quick note to Dumbledore while they are in the hut on the sea, at night on his eleventh birthday).

Let me know if you're ever passing through Boston. Surely we will meet one of these days!
Someday, I want to meet you. I adore the Harry Potter books, and pretty much every task you do
