I have this bad habit of reading more than one book at a time.I usually have two or three going at a time.The reason for this is I usually have many different types of books.For example this week I was reading graphic novels(comic books for those who are not sure what I mean by graphic novel, though few of them are funny and even fewer have superheroes in them.) some very strange southern gothic horror(had to force a description for Joe R Landsdale books.None of those words do the style of this man justice)a book called 86'd by Dan Fante for those of you in to the Bukowski and Hubert Selby Jr. type writing and some book about some American ball players that defected to the Soviet Union during the Stalin era and the terrible things that happened to them there, and a biography of Franklin Delano Roosevelt...
The funny thing to me is this need to read so wide a variety of subjects has nothing to do with the Bi Polar or a short attention span like others have tried to use to identify why I would do such a thing.I like variety and different moods and concepts.It is the same way when i surf the net and listen to music...variety of experience.....makes shit fun....so the moral of this story is hell I don't know I just wanted to write about books...
