Kindle - does it make you a flighty reader?

With so many books on my kindle I am finding that I usually have 3 or 4 different books on the go!

Do you stick to the 1 book and read it or are you like me and flit between a handful.

I always have read more than one book at a time - with the Kindle I don't have to worry about where I put them, or losing my place Grin

Funnily enough it's done the opposite for me. I'm terrible for flicking to the end of books and getting bored half way through. I haven't worked out how to do that on the kindle, so I've had to read complete books if I want to know what happens in the end. I've read about 5 in the last few weeks, one after the other. A miracle for me lately, with two small children. I hadn't read a book for ages before the kindle!

IS it possible to flick through?? (chunks I mean - not pages??) I also sometimes want to flick back to check what characters have done, but can't! So I find the kindle a bit irritating tbh.

Have 3 kindle books plus 2 paper books on the go. But I always have read with a different book in each room or bag so can't blame the kindle.

I have 7 on the go Grin
I just like that they're all in one place really.
