Reading more than one book at a time.
Counter-productive?
Disturbingly ADD?
Who cares?

I've been told I'm nuts when I do that, being that I cannot read one book at a time unless I'm reading it consecutively from start to end. I am curious to see if I'm the only one I know who does this on a normal day-to-day basis.

i was reading 3 books at a time the other day, really only 2 since the other one isnt that informative / interesting. They are 2 different types of books, hell if that makes a difference, as for more books than that at one time, i dont think i could.

Really? I'm the exact opposite. I fly through fiction, not deliberately,it's just something I can immerse myself in to the point where I'm not even aware that I'm reading. Anything non-fiction (or fiction that is full of non-fiction, or just plain informative) I take the time to think about and chew over in my head. And Hi.

Um. Well I usually do it that way. I get bored with one book and start another. Go back to the first. Get bored and start another. Leave one of them under the bed, forget I've been reading it, and start another. Clean my room and find it. End up with 5 books I am halfway through in a pile. Yep.
But then I AM disturbingly ADD, so there ya go!

Can't wait to see you. We have much clubbingness to do.

i usually just read the sentence on the opposite page of the one i'm supposed to be reading, that way i get through the book faster.
