I generally have 3 or 4 books going at the same time, not including the book I am editing for a client. I find that at different times of the day, I prefer to read different types of books. For example, . . .

I am currently editing a multivolume medical book on neck and head imaging. That covers my workday. When I quit editing for the day, I like to grab my Sony 505 and read a fiction ebook for 1-1.5 hours. After dinner, I pickup either the Sony or a hardcover and read another hour or so of fiction but a different book than what I was reading earlier.

At bedtime I pickup a hardcover nonfiction book and read that for 1-1.5 hours. I usually alternate nights between a couple of nonfiction books.

I admit that occasionally I find a book is so compelling that that I do not want to put it down so my usual schedule goes by the side and I simply read the one book until completion. This is not often the case, so I usually adhere to the above schedule.
