23 Dec

Welcome to WWW Wednesday! This meme was formerly hosted by MizB at A Daily Rhythm and revived here on Taking on a World of Words. Just answer the three questions below and leave a link to your post in the comments for others to look at. No blog? No problem! Just leave a comment with your responses. Please, take some time to visit the other participants and see what others are reading. So, let’s get to it!IMG_1384-0

The Three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

Note: For users of Blogspot blogs, I’m unable to comment on your posts as a WordPress blogger unless you’ve enabled Name/URL comments. This is a known WordPress/Blogspot issue. Please consider enabling this to participate more fully in the community. 


Currently reading: I managed just a few pages of Lateral Thinking by Edward de Bono. Meh, I’ll get through it eventually, right?
I’m just starting the final section of The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. I tend to read fast and I want to have a good memory of this book before discussing it with my reading buddy so I wanted a bit, but now it’s time to get through it.
I’m really close to finishing A Burnable Book by Bruce Holsinger. I didn’t think I’d be pushing this one so close to the end of the year!
My inter-library loan of Hum if You Don’t Know the Words by Bianca Marais came in! I started it and I had my first big shock by page 60 so I’m excited to keep reading this one.

Recently finished: Nothing new this week. I did post my review of Golden Glow by Dan D’Addona and Kaitlin Sandeno so feel free to check that out if you want.

Reading next: I need to get moving on audiobooks so I can start Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. My group meets in January to read it and I’m afraid I won’t finish!
I’ll start A Pale View of Hills by Kazuo Ishiguro soon. I hope this one is gripping, I think I need that soon.


Leave a comment with your link and comment (if you’re so inclined). Take a look at the other participant links in the comments and look at what others are reading.

Have any opinions on these choices?

Until next time, write on.

    “Hum If You Don’t Know the Words” looks very promising! Look forward to seeing your reflections when you finish.

    This week I’ve gone classic. I’ve got a classic novel I haven’t read since high school, and the story of a classic TV show that’s become part of our national vernacular.
