Him - I fare just as poorly on books with parallel storylines. I don't bother with LOTR or Harry Potter type books for this reason. I think I subconsciously find them somewhat intimidating.
I definitely do better with linear storylines, but even then I find my mind can wander. I can watch a talk show or a reality show with no problems.
I'm also pretty forgetful. At work, I can have conference calls with 3 different clients over 3 days, and a few days later forget which details are associated with which client.
How could I train my brain to become better at parallel processing? Is it just practice?
