I start a bunch of books and just keep flipping between the more interesting ones until something starts to really grab me and then I usually commit to reading it all the way through before returning to the rest.
There may end up being more than one "grabby" book running at a time, though, especially if one's a lengthy door-stopper narrative that I want to take occasional breaks from and another is something more non-linear that I can read in more-or-less self-contained segments, like a collection of essays or whatnot.
