I'm the same way ... I get bored easily, so I'll have several books on the go simultaneously. I like biographies, history, mystery, and espionage books. I don't buy paper books much anymore, but like to read them on my tablet.

I used to be monogamous with my books, but have become more willing to entertain two or three at a time.

Well, according to Goodreads I'm in the process of reading nine books.There are, in fact, that many books that I pick up from time to time. But for all practical purposes, there's one that I'm listening to in the car (always non-fiction), one that I'm reading that's related to work (non-fiction, again), and one that I read while relaxing (fiction, for escape!).

I'm guilty of preferring eBooks and audiobooks to print. I haven't read a physical book in years. I started with eBooks because I have pretty serious arthritis in my wrists and hands, and many books that I enjoy are heavy enough that they're painful for me to hold. I also found it tiresome to keep track of physical books, and especially to move them. When I found that with eBooks I could keep an entire library in my pocket, I was thrilled! As I grow older and my vision grows dimmer, the ability to change the size of text in my eBooks is more and more important. I like to read in bed, and having a light on to do that by has been a bit of a nuisance to my partners over the years. With my Kindle, I can read without a separate light, and my co-sleeper isn't bothered at all. And, happily,the Kindle's lighting lets me avoid blue light at night time. Audiobooks let me use otherwise wasted driving time productively! So I'm unlikely to go back to print books any time soon.

The only detriment to eBooks is that there's no browsing the bookshelves of readers any more. I hardly have anything on my shelves but coloring, music, and children's books. You wouldn't know to look at them that I'm an avid reader! You could tell so much about people by what was on their shelves before!

2 non-fiction ones right now that I've started and probably will never finish. Lol. I'm slow.

While I have quite a few lined up, I tend to focus only on one book at a time, and sometimes read the same book twice in case I missed any details the first time around. I'm just glad to hear there are people who still enjoy reading actual books and not E-books.

I am more like a sequence method type of reader. Work on one at the time and like to really dig into details where I feel is needed. I am sure there are plenty of ways to do this.

3 books for me. 2 non fiction and one random book.

Currently three books:

Zealot: the life and times of Jesus of nazareth
Rant: The oral biography of Buster Casey
Children of Blood and Bone

I usually like to invest time in one book at a time but I just picked them all up at the same time and can’t stop reading any of them

Yes, I like to read several genres more or less parallel. Currently 4.
