I generally have 2-4 books going at the same time. One is usually non-fiction, the others fiction. I read whichever one interests me at the moment. Time of day, how I'm feeling, day of the week, all have input in what I may read at any given time.
Some non-fiction takes very little concentration. For example, I'm currently ready Katie Couric's auto-biography. It's an easy lite read, not much that requires heavy thought. I can easily read it before bed. But, a book like "No Ordinary Time" which is long, and full of heavy detail about WW2 and FDR, took a good of concentration and was much slower going. One book is a snack, the other a 9 course meal.
If I start a reading session, and the book I've chosen isn't pulling me in, I pick another book. It's what so fabulous about an e-reader...hundreds of books at my fingertips, so always something that will suit.
