Can one read too much?

I tend to have a few on the go at once. Right now I'm cycling among:

Audiobooks: Finishing up Jane Gardam's novel "Old Filth", and have started Mary Roach's nonfiction about the afterlife "Spook" (which I'll continue with as my "main" audiobook after Gardam). Moreover,
I sometimes listen to stories from Joyce's "Dubliners" and Julian Barnes' "The Lemon Table" here and there.

E-books open on my reader:

1) "The Secret Lives of Somerset Maugham" - about halfway through, nice in small doses, but not exactly riveting.

2) "Grounded" - story of a couple's travels around the world by surface only, so interesting I want the relatively short book (200 pages) to last.

3) "The Art of Eating In" - nearly finished with this (sort of) non-TV reality TV show about the life of a New York blogger who vows not to eat restaurant food (for a couple of years).

4) A non-Holmes novel by Conan Doyle, translated into French, for reading practice - the Sony
French-English dictionary works great!

5) A book of film 1000 film reviews that's taken me a couple months to get barely 1/3 of the way through.

Print book: almost finished with "Majestie" (bio of James I), a quick read that I got off the library's New Books shelf a few days ago.
