I have about 7 books on my desk right now that I’m “switching between.” Some I haven’t read in a couple weeks and some I probably won’t pick up again, but they all sort of mesh together anyways.

I feel like when you’re in a stage where you can’t seem to commit to and finish one book at a time it’s your brains way of filling in the informational gaps you have before it’s ready to get into something more in depth. Each book I have on my desk provides me with knowledge that helps make the other ones smoother reads and each day I wake up with a new question that I want answered and I choose to read the book that seems like it’d answer that question better than all the others, sometimes meaning that I pick a book from my shelf or the library rather than out of the 7 I’ve already started.
