Yesterday, I finished reading a book and today I started another one having still the last history in my mind.
...once you finish to read a book, do you start immediately to read another one? Or do you wait a time until you digest what you've read before you open another history?

i'm a book reader and i tend to read a new book right after the previous one..it is because i always read before sleeping..i can't seem to manage to sleep without reading..so it is like a continuous process..if i run out of hard books to read..i will go read for my ebooks in my laptop..the worst thing that could happen is realizing in the morning that i've slept with my laptop on my bed..

That's the reason why I try not to read in bed before at night time, I could get asleep with the book in my hands, because I easily get sleepy. So it would take me longer to finish the book.

Sometimes I do. It depends on what is available. Often times I am reading more than one book at a time, this is soemthing I have done for awhile, so it seems like i am never really done reading a book.

It might be difficult to concentrate on the story you read if you read two books on the same time.

So am I, addicted to books. As more I read, more I want to. There are so many books already written that I would like to read them all.

Reading is something I really, really enjoy doing. Reading one book after another is not something that I can help doing. Once I finish reading one book, I just this urge to start reading another. It's something that I've always done, ever since I was kid. It's something that I really like doing, on my spare time.

It really depends on the time that I finish the book. There are a lot of the times where I tend to go late at night, to try and wrap up the last couple of chapters of a book that I am reading. Therefore, by the time I am done with the book, I am done for the day. Of course, it takes me a while to get to sleep, as I am mentally digesting what I read and trying to figure it out.
I think there are times where I have gone right into the next book but its very rare. Most likely its done within the next couple of days. Most likely the next day. I always have to read before I go to sleep. Otherwise, its hard for me to go to sleep. There is something about reading that relaxes me. Therefore, I may on some occasion if its not too late, grab the next book off the stack and start it. It really depends.

I always immediately start a new book after finishing the last one. I can't really go a day without reading, it makes me sad and my stress levels shoot up! I don't really think I need time to process what I've read. You can still think about the last book you read while you start another one. I still think about books I've read years ago, and I've read hundreds of books since then.

I love to read and so when I finish one book, then I go straight to another.

When I finished reading a book,I wouldn't go to another one immediately,YES,I will digest what I have read first,it's what I enjoy very much.And I am very critical on books,if I have read through a book,the book must have something that really attract me.
