One while commuting, one while at home. Either might be fiction or non-fiction. |

The number of fiction books I've read, can be can be counted on two hands. It's been years since last I read a fiction book. But I usually have 2-3 history books going at once. |

Sometimes, but it is much more likely that I have two history books going at the same time. |
ZULUPAUL | 11 Dec 2018 6:39 a.m. PST |
I will read 2 non-fiction @ a time. Fiction is a very very rare read. |

Normally it is 3-5 books going stashed in various rooms of the house as well as the car. Mostly non-fiction, but occasionally a fiction book is among the current books. |

That's the target or default setting. But it can be two completely different non-fiction in normal use, or for swatting up a subject or researching a particular event, pretty much everything I can find on the subject, flipping back and forth. Hard to take a pile of books to the fast foodery for lunch, though. |

Depends on the mood and the books. Sometimes I will get into a historical theme and read several on the same period. Sometimes I will read period fiction then historical for the same period, or vice versa. Other times I will read several fiction books 1 after the other. |

Depends on my mood. Right now I'm reading two historical books. But I have read two fiction books or one of each. Jim |

My habits aren't as regimented as the poll suggests, but I do have any number of books going on at any given time. |

Other. I don't limit myself to 1:1 fiction/non-fiction. I read what I want when I want, and often 2-3 books going on at a time. |
Frederick | 12 Dec 2018 9:40 a.m. PST |
Some times The difference is it takes probably a quarter of the time to dash thru a fiction book |
MajorB | 12 Dec 2018 12:46 p.m. PST |
As the mood takes me. Sometimes I read multiple books at the same time. |
Shagnasty | 13 Dec 2018 2:16 p.m. PST |
Much of my fiction is historical. |
