Of
late, I have started reading several books simultaneously, which does not mean
I have a book on my right hand and another on my left. It just means I pick up
a book, read a few chapters, and then I pick another and read a few chapters /
pages from that and so on. And why would I do that? It saves time.

Certain
books like thrillers or chicklits can be read in one sitting but there are
books like the ones on health or parenting; they demand slow reading. Then
there are travel books which can be read chapter-wise. There are some heavy
duty books, about complexities of life, which you need to read after breaks.
There are some big books like the one I read recently, Cuckold by Kiran Nagarkar;
they deserve some leisurely time and attention.
So, if you love reading, you
can easily bunch up different genres and make the most of your time. Since I am
always short of time, so I thought of this ingenious way to read more books in
the available time. It is
not that difficult really. If you read 2 books from the same genre, it will be
tricky. I am reading a parenting book, a health-related book, a non-fiction on Afghanistan, a book on English language and a Fiction. Simultaneously.
