Time for MizB’s WWW meme yet again! And I’ve finally hit that rush of finishing books I’ve been anticipating for a while. Two this week! TWO!
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?
Currently reading: My ebook is still The Domesday Book by Connie Willis. And to make my life more awesome, I don’t have it checked out any more. It’s going to be a while before I get to read it again, so this is on hold.
One audiobook on my phone is California by Eden Lepucki and which I’ve put on hold. I need to stop making that a habit! It’s okay and I intend to finish it… soonish.
I’ve begun The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood for a book club and I’m really enjoying it so far! It’s a great dystopian conversation that’s scary and unbelievable yet realistic. Creepy is probably a good way to say it.
I’m activly listening to Paper Towns by John Green checked out as an e-audiobook. I’m not super far into it yet, but I’m hoping to get through it fast as this is now my main audiobook.
Recently finished: I finished Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett on audio yesterday. It. Was. Amazing! I’m so glad I made it through this story though it might be a while before I’m brave enough to pick up the sequel!
I’ve also finished These Is My Words by Nancy E. Turner. And with that I’ve finished my own When Are You Reading? Challenge. Yay! Nothing like fulfilling your own standards to pump you up.
I’ve also put up a review of The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri which was amazing and you should all read immediately.
Reading Next: I’ve got two in the queue now: The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce. This is for a book club that meets in January so I’m feeling a slow read of this one. The other is for my free-form work book club and we’re reading Attachments by Rainbow Rowell. I don’t know how to describe how excited I am about this. One woman finished it in less than a week, which is quick for us! We might be talking about this before Christmas holiday!
School ends on Friday and I plan to drive home and read all evening with a glass of wine to celebrate. How is your WWW? Leave a comment and let me know and check out the original post on MizB’s blog!
Until next time, write on.
You can follow me on Goodreads, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Instagram. I’m available via email at SamAStevensWriter@gmail.com. And as always, feel free to leave a comment!
Great choices!

I read ‘Fangirl’ and really enjoyed that. I wrote FanFiction for a long time so I could identify with Cath and her friends.
Good luck with your reading goal!

Fangirl is a great book! Rainbow just announced she’s writing a whole Simon Snow book, exciting!!!

I heard that this morning! She’s writing fanfiction of a fictional series she introduced in a fictional novel. Which means that fanfiction writers will write fanfiction about it.
I’m confused just typing this. But in theory, couldn’t someone write the original Simon Snow books and they would be fanfiction of the fictional fanfiction? Wow. 🙂

Some great choices! I have to read Paper Towns still, and Attachments is probably my favorite Rainbow Rowell book, though Fangirl is a close second! Here is my WWW: https://darcysbookblog.wordpress.com/2014/12/10/www-wednesdays-dec-10/
