Hi there.
So I'm curious.... Your currently reading list, are these books actually books you literally ready now, something like a bit of each book a day or are these books, just a list on what you want to read? Lol sorry I might sound a bit daft but if you literally read these books kind of all at once, I need to know how on earth you do it?
I'm just a kind of person that can only read one book at a time just coz I want to get the full experience of the book and to have different genres all at once it feel like I'm not doing justice to each book.
Yep. All of them at once. *lol*
I used to read only one book at a time. I can't say exactly how it started. I was in a slump, which led to me starting multiple books that I wound up being unable to finish, which somehow morphed into me being a die hard poly reader.
I basically just pick up whatever suites my mood/situation.
It's definitely not for everyone, but it's also not as complicated as it seems, and is fairly common.
It's kind of like actively watching multiple series; they're all different, so my brain compartmentalizes them.
I actually feel kind of the opposite. If I force myself to stick to a single book when my brain wants me to read something else, I'm failing to enjoy it at the level I otherwise would.
I can still devour a book without switching to a different one. If it grabs me, it grabs me, and all of my attention goes to it. But I can also start missing the variety. *shrugs*
