How many books do you have going at once?

Started by widsith , author of WIDSITH 7/21/2010 12:15:51 PM

I have over 10 books going at once, and I don't know what to do with myself! Is it really a problem? I feel like I want to take in many different genres at once: If I'm reading historical fiction, I want to read modern mystery at the same time. If I'm reading a philosophical book, I want to read a biography too.

Do you do the same thing? Or do you read only one book at a time?

I usually have one, maybe two going at a time. If I am juggling, I make sure they are different genres entirely so I don't get mixed up.

It's usually fiction all day long. When I juggle, it's something political mixed in.

I thought I was the only one that reads several books at the same time. Well let me think... right now I am reading 4 books, finished a 5th and am I weird? But this is how I've always been. Or like my son would say, This is how I roll!   LOL.

usually 1 or 2 at a time..thats all I can handle


I usually have between 6 and 8 books going at one time. Once I had *gasp* 18 going at one time. I like having multiple books going at one time because it allows me to switch back and forth if I'm bored with one. 

And I thought I was the only one who read so many books at once. smiley


I usually have a minimum of two and max of five.  No wonder it takes me so long to finish.

Lol. I'm always reading 2-3 books at a time! Wow! 10 books?


I have about 4 to 5 books going at one time.  I like romance and cozy mysteries the best..and cant wait to start "one more".

good question!

I'm a one book woman. LOL  *Maybe* two, but if I do that, the first one gets sat down until the second gets finished.


I tend to read a lot of books at once which is one reason why I am really in to using an e-Reader now. I can put as many books as I want on it and not have to lug them all around!
