Not Giving up Library Membership and Other Ideas

I have decided not to forgo the library membership.
More from a sentimental point of view than anything else. Of course, I was blind to this perspective, to be honest, and the spouse wondered why I was doing what I was doing. Previously I wasn't happy about the decision of cutting it out of my life, but then, I thought I would be practical for once.
Didn't work.
His gentle admonishing made me feel horrible about the whole plan - of being practical. I guess somewhere at the back of my mind, I was waiting for somebody to tell me it was a bad idea. I am glad I changed my decision.

I am also trying Kindle Unlimited for a month - just to see if it makes sense for me to have something like this on my reader. For now I have downloaded a travel guide from lonely planet, and a couple of novels. I hope it works out for me, in the sense that it pushes me to read more and develop a strong discipline towards reading.

I am currently reading two books in parallel - 'The Vegetarian' and 'A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Cemetery'. Both are very interesting and belong to two different genres.

Very soon I should start writing about the books as well. I have fallen behind schedule, big time. 

Reading in Parallel

Is it possible, I wonder? I mean I have tried it, and I am ambivalent about it.
Earlier, I could never read two books in parallel - I felt my focus was not as singular, but in the last one year, I have tried doing that and I did manage to read.

Is it better now? I don't know. Have I lost interest, in general? I don't know that as well. But I have noticed that if I can finish two books in the following conditions:

a. Book A is a breezy read; Book B is heavy/intense
b. Both the books A and B are breezy reads
c. I am not too interested in the book but I just want to finish it

I do know a couple of friends who read in parallel but I am not sure I can do a good job of it. I wonder what is the general split - of people who read multiple books at a time and people who prefer to finish one after the other.
