Finishing a book... starting a new one

[SueK]

I tend to "chain read". It's like a drug really, always got to have a book on the go .......

Yeah, me too. Only time I don't have a book on the go is if I've finished one at night and haven't bothered to open another before going to sleep.

If I'm reading part of a series (i.e. Harry Potter or recently the Twilight Saga) then I can't live without contining straight on to the next book.

 

I'm exactly the same - I read the entire Alex Rider series in one long weekend a few years ago!

Before I'm even done with a book, I usually have something already lined up to follow. But most of the time I read 3-4 books at once anyway so there's no gap.

[Lucybird]

Yeah I go straight from one to the other, sometimes actually straight away with no gap at all.

[Talisman]

I usually start another one pretty much straight away as well. Always have done.

[funrun]

usually I can If I am in the mood to read next book

[Ravenwood]

I tend to go straight to the next one that's waiting, but I do usually have 2 or 3 on the go at the same time.... usually lying around in different rooms, so I'll pick up whatever's nearest

[Ossiy]

I need time for that to master a book

[busy91]

Yes, I do it all the time. I usually finish a book on the train, and still have a ways to go, so I pull the next one out of my bag. I often know when I'll be done and put the next one in there so I'll have it. If I am reading from my kindle it makes life easier, but that is not always the case.

 

I don't seem to need time between books.

[Mysterioso]

Never have a break between books as I read for pleasure, book reviewing, my job and a bookgroup. Besides I would feel slightly disorientated without a book within my reach- that's just not natural...
