You too!!! We had a big assembly at our school!

I was just wondering, how many books can you guys read at once? I'm usually reading 2-3 books at once. 📚📗📘📙📓

Depends on how I'm feeling. Once I went to the library and was literally read 14 books at once...I'm seriously not kidding you. 📚📙💕

And @jilly_bean holds the record!

Hmmmm...... Sometimes I forget I'm reading a book or have to return it. Currently I'm reading *pauses thinks really hard* 5ish........Usually I don't read this many at a time! But I'm listening to audiobooks and a couple are skippy :( Usually I read about 2-3 at a time as well! Usually one audiobook, one reading, and then usually a schoolbook! :)

Audio books are good! But I never know what to do while listening to them! What do you usually do while listening to them?
auntieb auntieb

I LOVE audiobooks!! I like to clean my room while I listen to them or knit, do a craft, draw, color, the list goes on!!
ajg16 ajg16

Good ideas! I'll try to remember to get an audio book at the library!

One book if it's really good, another if I found one and then got another one from the library and they both turned out pretty good, a third if one is required for school, and I usually have a nonfiction book tucked in my backpack.

Yeah, same with me. 2-3 books at once, but sometimes I get the characters mixed up into different books! It's sort of confusing!😂 XD
chlooe chlooe

I get mixed up with the story line and the charcters too!
ajg16 ajg16

That happens to me too! It gets confusing sometimes!
