I always have AT LEAST four or five books open at a time š I gotta have my poetry, my work-related book, my nonfiction, my novel, my graphic novels, etc. I love how my brain makes unexpected connections, especially if the books have nothing to do with each other!
I like to have one book to make me think and one for fun. At the moment Iām reading the Fall by Albert Camus and Pageboy by Elliot Page. Both are insightful but when I get tired of first person pov and need more academia I can swap!
so that when you want to read you're not forced to read whatever one book you've already started. works especially well if you're reading books in different categories or genres
