we dont need to hear about your Harlequin Romance novels Fine, we'll compromise. I'll drop it when you learn to read a book that's not crayon colored.

I typically read 2 books at once. Right now I'm reading A Dance with Dragons and (rereading) Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.

The Starbuck Chronicles by Benard Cornwell
I just finished "Rebel" and am starting "Copperhead". Really excellent so far

I'm going to start "Edge of Eternity" by Ken Follett soon. Most of my free time has been spent learning Indonesian and/or reading books in Indonesian. Definitely need to get back to some casual reading.
Also got Doris Kearns Goodwin's "Bully Pulpit" in my reading queue.

When I'm reading a great book, I can't wait to get back to it. When a book is just okay, I push through to get to the next. I guess people like you are better multitaskers, but it just seems like it would be distracting.

I am reading various things. Calvin & Hobbes, some different cook books. I have not committed to an actual book since reading Sammy Hagar's auto biography, Red. I have a literal crap ton of books in epub and mobi format that I need to load onto the Tab.

I guess people like you are better multitaskers, but it just seems like it would be distracting. For me sometimes I'm in the mood for some non-fiction, and others for just a good story. That mood can change within the hour, or sometimes days. It is probably more akin to ADHD than being a good multitasker though...
