I currently have six novels, one book of short stories, two autobiographies and a book on politics on the go. I read one for an hour or two, then swap to something else.
I've always read several books concurrently. I remember my father commenting on it when he saw several books with bookmarks in sitting on the table beside my bed. That must have been about fifty years ago. If anything, the number has increased in recent years (i.e., since I retired).
