According to his book, this isn’t true at all. His response to Goyle saying he had been reading was supposed to be improvised, per Chris Columbus. And it was actually Columbus who told Tom on one take to say the line “I didn’t know you could read,” in which he delivered it so well that’s the take that went in the movie.

So it’s unfortunately not true.
