Theoretically I go with what I think of as a Three Bears approach: one “hard” book, serious fiction or biography; one “medium” book, e.g. travel, memoir or literary fiction; one “light” book, for when I’m tired or can’t concentrate. And one audiobook.

But something may call to me or I get bogged down (especially likely with the hard nonfiction) and sometimes it’s two audiobooks, one to go to sleep by and one for when I’m out and about. And the library aspect, but with a 21-day checkout I don’t have to start it right away, at least in theory. And next thing I know….
