Reading Multiple Books at Once???

As suggested to me by BJ, while I am in this temporary blog and reading lag, I should post small simple posts for the time being. I think it’s a great idea!

So, recently I took out a copy of Les Miserables from the library. I was not aware it was so thick! Instead of reading it all at once, I thought maybe I can read it in conjunction with other books. Then I thought back on 1Q84 and how I have still not picked it up again because of being intimidated by its size. I began wondering if me reading it while reading other books if  would make a difference. When I thought about it, I don’t think I have ever read more then one book at a time.

Do any of you guys do that? If so, do you have a schedule or do you just wing it?  I would love to know and maybe even get some pointers! 🙂
