How far along are you in your current read before you start thinking about what you’ll read next?
I'm usually thinking about my next read (and the one after that- and the one after that) immediately, but I often change my mind. For example, I think I told you a couple of weeks ago that I was planning on reading American Dervish next- well, that kind of fell by the wayside and I started From the Memoirs of a Non-Enemy Combatant, by Alex Gilvarry. After that, I thought I'd start To Say Nothing of the Dog but ended up with Stoner. And next I figure I'll read The Long Song, but I'll probably change my mind at some point too! Theme months help me a little with keeping organized but there's still a bit of wiggle room when it comes to what to read next. Nothing's ever written in stone and once I've started a book I very well may put it down in favor of something else! I guess what I'm saying is I read as the spirit moves me.More Musings at ShouldbeReading.wordpress.com.

I have no plan and little organization, so what I pick is usually a surprise!
Haha! Me too. I think I know exactly what is coming up next, but I am easily distracted.
Yeah I'm all over the place. Here's my Musing
Happy reading!

I do plan ahead, but like knowing that I can change my mind.
Here's MY MUSING MONDAY POST - and here’s

I am always changing my mind too, and sometimes as I finish a book, I think I will be reading one thing, only to discover that I am being led to read something entirely different. I think this happens to me because there are just so many books that I want to read, and I have too many choices! Not that I am complaining! I love to be led my my whims when it comes to reading!
I usually have my next book in mind when I am just about finished with my current book. That being said I often change my mind based on my mood, too!
