I never read more than one at a time, and I never DNF, but it seems like reading multiple books at the same time would make it easier to abandon one or more of them. Is it?

As someone who used to read a
LOT of multiple books simultaneously (but now much less so), I can say that for me it took away a lot of the book's pleasure to read so many books at once.
I now try to limit myself to reading about four books, switching off from one to the other:
1) A literary collection of short stories
2) A literary novel (or novella)
3) A horror collection (or anthology)
4) A horror novel (or novella)
I'm now having a lot more fun with my reading. This makes my DNF much less.
