One bad habit that I have is that I sometimes start a book, read it for a bit to about the 1/3 mark, then completely forget about it.  One way that I’m getting around this is to read several books at the same time, in order to keep myself motivated, and to increase the odds that I’ll finish at least one of the books.  I also like to read a variety of books, with a mix of fiction, non-fiction, and graphic novels.  Here’s what I have on my night stand at the moment:

Tenth of December, a series of entertaining short stories with a bit of dark comedy,

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, the graphic novel which the movie is based on,

and Flash Boys, a non-fiction novel about high-frequency trading on Wall Street.
