In my experience there are two groups of readers: Focused readers and Scattered readers.
Focused readers read only one book at a time and curb the temptation to be led way by other books that might enter their reading orbit.
Scattered readers have may books on the go at any one time. I am definitely such a reader and have upwards of 20 books on the go at any one time. I do 10-15 minutes per book and then change out.
People ask me how I can do this and still remember and follow plots and characters. My answer is that I have a trained, segmented mind. In my profession I have directed many concurrent projects and programs and this required the ability to multitask and quick switch.
I have tried focused reading but it hurts my brain...
