Sometimes yes, sometimes no. (How's that for a non-answer?)
If I'm reading something particularly weighty and I find that it's bringing me down, I'll put it aside and read a few Dave Barry essays or even a comic book until I feel ready to go on.
And, most all of the time, I have a novel going (which I read quickly) and a non-fiction book of some kind (which I read more slowly).
And, sometimes, I take an informational book and cherry-pick the stuff I'm most interested in.
