I was thinking about this earlier. I'm still working my way through a fairly large pile of 2e FR sourcebooks and other RPG materials that I've purchased off E-Bay recently. Along with a number of FR novels I picked up as well. But I'm not sure which group to tackle first.
So then I thought about reading both a sourcebook and a novel at the same time. I usually only like to read one book per reading session but in this case, and with so many books/sourcebooks to work through, I thought this would be a more effective strategy.
But I'm also curious about how others handle this. Do you each read one novel and sourcebook at a time? Or do you drop sourcebooks into your regular reading cycle, so that when you're done with a particular novel, you might move on to a sourcebook next? What about gaming magazines - - like Dragon or Star Wars Insider for example? How do they fit into your reading rotational cycle?

I read novels for most of my regular reading. I read sourcebooks in my reading room (known by others as a bathroom), and at odd moments here and there.
Other than Kobold Quarterly, I don't read magazines any more. When I did, they fit into the same spot as sourcebooks. KQ I just read as pdfs, so my reading habits on that are most erratic. |

| I usually read three or four books at a time, but usually from different genres. encyclopaedia in the bathroom, some sort of fantasy or sci-fi novel, a gaming sourcebook (usually in bed), and some book of more serious literature. In addition there is comic books, poetry and some sort of non-fiction in between. |
