I've recently observed that my wife, 37, shakes her head gently while reading but she herself doesn't feel it. is it a symptom of anything serious?

Possibly: There are various so-called movement disorders, related to Parkinson's disease, that can begin with this type of thing. I recommend seeing your family doctor or a neurologist.
