Schizophrenic or enlightened?
>>
>>24783356
Necessary. If I read one book (I usually read long ones) I hit a point where reading becomes a chore and I look at the book and would rather do anything else so end up not reading at all.
Multiple books allow me to take a break from the voice of one man and continue reading another’s.

Schizo is you alternate between the books after each page.

Stacking is the best way to read and to read a lot. Do 3-4 at a time, making sure each one is different enough that you won't get confused. I like doing fiction, nonfiction, and something like a play or poetry.

You can read a lot of different kinds of books, even a kid can read a fun fantasy novel and then switch to studying by reading something for school. Even if you read two books that are very similar I don't even think there's a problem. It's neither.

Retarded. Focus on one thing then start another.
>>
>>24783356
Every time I try and read two books I end up liking on more and just reading that one.

What's he reading? Looks like it may be a Bible and a piece of commentary

Why is this even a question? It's something I do all the time, I didn't even consider it was rare

I am reading the Turner Diaries and Between the World and me at the same time. Very enlightening.

When one accumulates a proper library, one tends to read from several volumes on and off as he or she needs.
It's neither schizophrenic nor enlightened in and of itself. It just sort of happens that way.

I usually read one novel and one philosophical work at a time

One fiction, one nonfiction is a great way to read

Thats adhd.
Schizo would be reading some book on a broad topic like pic related and then extrapolating points from it that are never explicitly said in the book the very clearly implied throughout.

nta but I look like that

100% agreed.
My stack is currently 1 fiction, 1 non-fiction, 1 theology.
I should add some short stories or poetry to the mix.

old Bill level: you have two books open on the screen side by side, and you read one line from each in turn.

I think it makes sense for instance if someone is reading a heavy/dense book they might have a light novel to read as a break.
Better than doomscrolling Instagram
>>
I wouldn't call it either of those things, if it works for you then great, I just found out it doesn't really work for me cause I get distracted by the other books so just one book at a time for me personally

im reading dozens (schizo)

Don't talk about Leon like that...

I like having a more "chill" / slop book and a more complex one for different moods.
>>
>>24783356
I have different books for different places. Currently it's
Bed - War and Peace
Toilet - All the Pretty Horses
Commute - a book about the House of Capet
Living room - a young adult novel in Russian (trying to learn the language right now)
That way I can always read wherever I am without having to actually carry a book with me. I also try to read in different languages as to not forget them.
