Just curious, how long of a break do you guys take between books? Do take a few days to reset the brain or just roll straight into a new novel?

Sometimes no break at all, but usually a few hours. Up to one day, unless the book gave me a horrible hangover haha
No break for me. I either start a new book immediately after finishing one or if it’s late at night, the next day.
straight away MUST READ xxx
No break!
What’s a break? 😉
No break
No break!
Dear Damon don’t be mistaken. Science proofs that our Mind/brain rests and relaxes when we are reading or have something to comprehend. So as a brother i advise you not to take any break at least for the sake of your mind. Thank You!
I just keep rolling along. There are so many books and not enough time.
i usually will take a short break. i read at night after work, so i’ll usually start my next book the next day. Unless the ending was really good and I’m absorbed, then i have to at least read the first few chapters of my next one.
As soon as I stop one I pick up another.
Love the response of what’s a break? ??
Week
Start reading another book right away
No break unless I cannot find a book but otherwise I am in a new book as soon as I finish one
Depends on the day. Sometimes a day or two. Sometimes up to a week because I’ve other things to do. But usually I’ll change genres before a big break between readings (if doing a lot of fantasy go realistic, if young adult go to a younger read….)
Roll straight in the next day!? (My favorite is to have an entire series to binge read, in which case I wait about thirty seconds)
An hour or so
I’m usually so excited to start a new book that I get right into it.
To answer my own question, I’ve found that I have to let my brain reset which usually takes a day or two depending on how busy I am. If I go straight into a new book my concentration seems to wane slightly and I’m more likely to lose interest in the new book or I’ll just find it hard to read more than a page in a day.
I’m usually reading g 3 books at a time, so I just keep on with the ones I’m reading, and then add one extra – right away, or with in a day or two.
Depends on whether or not that book gave me a hangover or if it’s the next book in the series
I don’t take much time between books. I might roll the story around in my head to make sure I got all the important points of the last book I read.
Depends on the book
No break! I normally always have one ready and waiting!
Until I read the post I’ve never thought of having a break between books .. Finish one straight on to the next!
Depends on my mental health after the book xD
Depends on if I have something else lined up to read
Twenty seconds..
Right into the next one.
I jump right in.
I start to read a new book right away.
SInce I read two to three at a time there is no break.
Straight from one to the next usually. Depending on when I finish though sometimes I eat in between
Onto the next one lol
Roll straight into another book
Depends on the book. Sometimes, I need time to heal (read “stop ugly crying”). Sometimes I’m pissed!! But mostly I just roll into the next one.
Normally after reading a book I write my review, edit and publish it. Then I go to Goodreads and YouTube and read/watch some other reviews of the book. And then I pick a new book to read.
Straight on in – I get twitchy if I don’t have a book (or two) on the go! 🙂
Roll in
Depends on the book
I read one book after another. Sometimes when I’m a slump I may not read for a few days.
Roll straight in lol.
I tend to read series so straight to the next cause I want to know what happens ?
I tend to have more than one book on the go at a time ? then I alternate reading between them depending on mood haha
I usually keep going into the next book– maybe 24 hours between. If I’m in a slump, I’ll reread one of my favorites
No longer than a day, and probably just a few hours. If I found the one I just finished to be spectacular and it’s not in a series, I take a day to reset.
No break! Sometimes I read two books at the same time, so I haven’t time to rest.
I like to take a day or two off. Sometimes though, when I’m really in a reading mood I just jump right on to the next. It really depends on the book I have finished reading.. wether it has left me with a lot of thoughts ?
I move right on to the next one.
I’m almost always reading two at once (one physical, one on my phone) so this doesn’t happen.
I start a new one immediately!
Depends i go in and out of reading moods so it could not even be ten minutes after i finished a book or a month till i pick a new book
24 hrs if the plot is too twisted and you need to calm down. Or else i jump right in.
Winter straight into a new book. (16 since december)
Summer i always have a book on hand just no time to read
No time in between. In fact, I have to pick the next book and have it ready before I finish the previous one.
Overnight…..once I finish a book I usually need to just finish the day/night…goto sleep and then the next day I can open the next book
I’ve often felt this way. unless I’m reading a series. Sometimes it’s hard for me to get into something completely new.
Overnight. I’ve been trying not to read more than one book since this year started xD
Roll on- or take a few days to recover if it had been an experience of note
Straight to a new novel !!
