I try to make sure they are extremely different storylines. It makes it easier to keep track. If I read books that are similar, the plots tend to run together in my mind and I can't remember which book events happened in. It gets confusing. When the books are really different it's easier. Plus, sometimes I get bored with a book so I pick up a different one, and when I go back to the book I was bored with...I'm not bored anymore. :)

I haven't read Earthsea, but I did see the movie. It was pretty decent. Vampire Academy is one of my favorite series! It is so addictive! I can't bring myself to read the last book, because I don't want the series to end!

and

A Canticle for Leibowitz - Walter M. Miller, Jr.
(which I haven't read in years and years, but it's coming up as a book club read, I think. Or at least I voted on it, forget if it won now ...)

Helen I do like to listen to books on the bus which are completely separate from my 'read' book.
