I gave up reading in bed, so that isn’t a concern of mine. And yes, even the booklite” throws off a lot of light and will disturb one’s spouse.

We three seem to have the same kind of reading habits, vis-a-vis several books going at a time.

I wonder how common/uncommon that is.

Oh, okay, then I misunderstood. All is well.

I find this a bit naive.

I have to read at least a little, otherwise I’ll get to fretting about things. With a book, I’ll follow a side thought related to what I’m reading, and fall asleep before I know it. Then the Kindle turns itself off after a few minutes.

It’s always good to get your mind off things, before you try to fall asleep. ;^)

Quite the contrary. You’re a terrible person for giving OpenAI your bona fides .

I think lots of people do that. My wife has at least two or three books going at all times, and I’d say that the majority of avid readers I have known read more than one book at a time.

It's a normal practice in my family...for generations now; however, I never thought to ask others if they do the same.

I'm down to having only 2 books going right now, and don't plan on starting another one as yet.

Tried at least three different book lights, and they weren’t of any use. Couldn’t use the ones that clip on the book. Had one that laid over the page, and didn’t like that. It was just easier to use the Kindle. I double a pillow up, set the Kindle on it, and read.

"I wonder how common/uncommon that is."

We're just uncommonly good.

Oddly enough, this song/lyric came to mind...
Van Halen - Runnin' With The Devil
I got no love, no love you'd call real

There's the problem, especially with AI.

Ain't got nobody, waitin' at home
Sounds like a ripe environment for a cheese trap.

I don’t like the clip-on lites at all. My lamp, on the night table works well for reading, as it’s tall.
