I've fallen into the habit, now, of having two books on the go at the same time. One, my daytime book, and two, my nighttime book.

The daytime book is always a paperback or hardback, while the nighttime book is a kindle book, which allows me to read in bed at night without a light on, so I don't disturb my sleeping wife.

Currently, my daytime book is Strangers by Dean Koontz, and my nighttime book is Crosstalk by Connie Willis.

Works well :)
