Yes but it never really works out in the end for me because I usual get too bored with one of them and it takes me a long time to get back to it and finish.

One downstairs during the day, one upstairs before falling asleep and one for doc appts and hair dresser.
It depends. I generally will start one book but If I am not really into it, I will start a second book with my fingers crossed that I will enjoy it and when/if I do I will use that second book as a buffer to finish the first book. I am not a fan of not finishing books I start.
Usually. I have one on my Kindle app I read at the gym, drs, etc. and an actual book at home.
I have to read only one cause then I can focus on it. I thought about getting audio books I can listen to at work?
I typically engage with at least two books simultaneously: one in audiobook format for my car rides, and another in either physical or Kindle format for all other occasions. I usually opt for one book that falls under the adventure/thriller/mystery genre, while the other leans towards romance.
yes. I manage group homes.. I read to my clients. I also listen to audiobooks when i work on my diamond art. Then I have the book that i read to relax
Currently reading 4. I used to only be able to manage one at a time but since I am a mood reader I actually go through books quicker when reading multiple. Also, audiobooks in between while I am at work.
recently started to read two at the same time, one physical at home and one easy read on kindle for on the way.

If by then it still is boring (which was the case with Donna Tartt's "A Simple Story"), then I don't waste any more time on it.
Gabriel Maria Marquez once said that there's no use in wasting time on boring books as there are so many compelling books out there. :)
I typically will be reading a paperback or hardback while listening to an audiobook and reading a book on kindle. I like my kindle for night reading and the regular books the rest of the time.
yes, i have attachment issues
Yes, sometimes I do. One on my Kindle while traveling, and 1 paperback
No because i like to get really in to my books and i feel lik when reading more than one i cant do that.
I usually read 5 books at the same time. I can't go further than 5. And it's easier when they are in different genres.
I'm currently reading 8 books simultaneously. History and fiction.
I have tried that but I always set one of the books aside and read the one which has caught my attention more.
NO
yes, its the only way i can focus jajaja i know it doesn't make sense, but it works for me
I have a memory of a goldfish. When I'm reading a book I have to constantly read it throughout the day/days or in one sitting otherwise I forget what happens so there's no way I can do that with two books
I will read two books at once if they are in a different format. If I’m reading a paper book I can’t read another paper book at the same time. I would read on my kindle. It’s the only way I can keep the stories straight in my head.
Yes one ebook and one physical
Ya, I do. I gtg so this isn't very long; sorry
Yes I can read two at a time sometimes. One audible book and one physical book.
At any given point I have one audible that I listen to on my way to work, one im reading on my kindle for on the go reading, and one physical book to read early in the morning on the weekend before anyone gets up.
i go back and forth between books, but i try not to be reading more than 5 books at once
I can, but they have to be different. Like one a fun one more serious
I kind of have to. I didn't start that way this year because it could distract me, but I've gone back to it.I'm almost always listening to one book on Audible, and then reading at least another one. And most of the time, I have a secondary one I start or pick up occasionally. The secondary one then becomes my primary read after finishing my first one.
I often have as many as 6-8 that I'm actively reading at any given time. Usually different genres and on different platforms, kindle, kobo, google books, etc as well as hard copy! I'll pick up whichever one suits my mood at the time.
I usually read 2-3 at the same time, but they are all by different genres so I don't get confused
absolutely!!!!! max 3 though at a time....
usually a nonfiction, sciency book and a novel at the same time
I don't. I like to give all my attention to one book so I can really focus on that story.
Lately yes. I’m reading a physical one in bed - it’s iron flame for me.
Then I also have an audiobook for daytime - while driving or doing chores. Now it’s two audiobooks as I’m doing a tandem read.
yes ..mostly one physical and one in kindle
Always. I do literature based school, so I read 6 books at a time, plus a fun book, and an audiobook during the day.
No, I need to focus on one book
I'm almost always reading multiple books simultaneously.
i try not to, but if ive started a book that doesnt interest me much ill start smth else for sure
Yes, I'm such a mood reader.. I've started over so many books cuz I only get past like the first 5 pages. Now i'm almost half way through two books! Now I can't decide which one to finish first. That's the problem with reading multiple books at once.
It depends on the book, but generally I stick to one book at a time. However, if one book that I am reading is not clicking with me, I will put it down for a bit and start another one.
I normally always read 2-3 books at a time. One book on my Kindle, so that no matter where I am I can pick it up to read, an audiobook so every time I get into my listening to one, and of course a physical book to read while at home.
YES BRO. IF YOU LOOK ON MY PROFILE IM READING LIKE 9 BOOKS AT THE SAME TIME-
