The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn question

I usually have about five books going at a time. They typically aren't all in the same genre so I can switch back and forth depending on my mood. My mom was always flabbergasted that I could do this without confusing the stories but it really isn't that hard.

I don't use a Kindle either. Only real books for me!

I do that too. It just takes me longer to read the books. Sometimes, months. Sometimes, l'll read it for a little while, then I put it on the back burner for something else and come back to it later.

I am usually reading several books at once. I keep a paperback in my bag, an audiobook in the car and a book on the nightstand.

I usually try to keep it down to 3 but sometimes it gets up to 8 or 9. I only try to keep it down because I usually feel a little guilty if i allot more time to one book than I do to another one. Having less makes it easier to do. Although sometimes I do just blast through books with a complete disregard for all my others, but that's only if I really like the book.

Usually I have about 2 to 8 books going at once and i never get them confused. Sometimes im just rereading one or two on my Nook, and sometimes i get focused on a certain one. For switching i usually read the one on hand or the one im in the mood for. Sometimes i get angry at the story so i stop and start another then i go back to it. Hope that helped. :)

People think I'm crazy that I can keep that many straight at one time but I can't understand how you could be confused. They're totally different stories!

I usually have a book at every different chair in my home, a book on my iPad, on my two different iPods and one on my phone. I listen to specific ipods in my cars (work/regular) and then my phone when I'm cleaning or shopping.

I usually have 5-10 going on at any given time. You're not always in the mood for one specific book! It's nice to have a choice :)

I have a Kindle, so it's tempting to read multiple books at once and I often do. Usually a non-fiction or history book along with a fiction book. Right now, I am reading The Hobbit and American Colonies. However, when I read multiple books I tend to favor one over the others and sometimes don't even pick up a book I previously started again. For me, it's that feeling that the are so many books, so little time that brings me to do this.

I always seems to have 3-8 books going at a time, though one usually surfaces after a while to engage my full attention until I finish it. My interests vary so, that I feel most happy when I have choices for my reading on any given day.

I read 3 at once, most people think I'm crazy, one chapter from each and I can keep up on each.

I usually have 3-5 books ongoing but I can't help myself and start sorting out the next ones I'll read so I easily end up with 10 books. It's as if I'm a junkie afraid of not getting my next fix!

I have 2-7 books I'm reading at the same time. My mom thinks that I'm crazy because I can handle all of the without getting confused. Usually I have an audio book (or more) and a book (or more) that I'm reading. I think I do it more out of not wanting my books to end. :)

I keep between 15 and 20 books at a time on my nightstand, but usually try to focus on one work of fiction and one of non-fiction. At present I am rereading both Treasure Island (Robert Louis Stevenson) and Good Calories, Bad Calories (Gary Taubes).

If I started a book, I keep on reading until I finish it. I can't start another book until I finish the one I'm reading :)

I can only manage 3-4 at a time . One in each sitting room, one on cd in the car and one in my tote bag-to come and go with me. I also read a number of magazines and journals so I share the obsession!

I go through a mania personality once in a while where I try to start 4 or more books, but realistically, can only read 3 at a time. I will pick books that are polar opposites in subject matter so not to jumble my mind.

I ususally have three going. Changing between them is similar to changing channels on television. Occasionally one book will really grab my attention, and then I read that one in exclusion to the others. I don't use an ereader. I get a headache from the screen.

No, you are not the only person to read multiple books at the same time!

I often read five or six at a time, but usually only one work of fiction is in the mix.

I usually have at least five books going at the same time. I'll have a novel open on my e-reader that I read only at the gym or while on the road traveling; one novel that I read primarily before bed; one or two non-fiction books from which I read a chapter here and there; and one to several poetry books from which I read individual poems as the mood strikes. I also often read & review e-books for authors as they are in process. Those are usually short reads and I fit them in between other books.

I read several books at a time. I like to read different genres, so it just depends on my mood which one I pick up. I also play an audiobook when I do mindless, mundane tasks, such as laundry or dishes. I have another audiobook that I listen to in my truck. You are definitely not alone. ;)

I frequently have multiple books at once. Both e-books and regular. I'm just so glad I found my Alice in Wonderland. I had misplaced it, but I found it again finally. So glad! Might not be worth anything to anybody else with it's broken spine, but I love old books. This is around the 19th century, I think. No copywrite date.

I tend to overdose on books I really like, so I normally have about 5 or so going at a time. When I get so engrossed in one that I do not want to put it down, often I will stop anyway at a chapter break, and switch to something in a different genre. I may only read a few pages of whatever I switched over to, and then wind up back into the book I'm so deeply into.

2 or 3 at a time for me. But never two novels at once. Usually one non-fiction and one fiction, with the occasional addition of a book of short stories, or non-fiction on a different subject.

Same here... i have around 7 to 8 at a time all different genre... See you are not alone :)

I usually read one at a time. When I get into a book, I don't want to put it down at all. If I ever stop reading a book and start reading something else, it probably means that won't pick the other book back up again.

Also, having multiple books that I like and that I'm reading irritates me. I can't handle it (I'm a wimp like that). It's all the indecision. While I'm reading one book, all I can think about is the other, and when I'm reading the other, all I can think about is the first book. It kills me. So mostly I just stick to reading one at a time.
