13 Mar

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!

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’m accepting that I’ll be stuck on Más allá de la magia (Beyond the Wand) by Tom Felton for a while. It’s so hard to find time to pick up a physical book when you’re constantly holding a baby. I’m ok with this one lingering for a while.
I made decent progress in Vita Brevis by Ruth Downie. When my kid is asleep for a bit, I’ll put this audio on and knit a few rows before they wake up screaming again. It’s a nice break for a few minutes.
I started Can I Say by Travis Barker as an ebook. So far, it’s interesting but I’m not a huge fan of the writing style which is keeping me from being more engaged. It feels very free of emotion which is making empathy hard.

Recently finished: I was able to wrap up Servant of the Underworld by Aliette de Bodard during an overnight nursing session! I’m glad to be done with this one because it lingered for so long. I wasn’t a massive fan, honestly. I gave the book Two out of Five Stars and posted my review yesterday.

I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m caught up on reviews! I had time to review Saints and Misfits by S.K. Ali and posted my review on Monday! I gave it Three out of Five Stars, please check it out.

Reading next: I don’t really have a plan right now and I don’t think I’ll need one before next week. I’m thinking an ebook might be next for me if I can keep up the habbit of reading during feedings that I’ve been doing. We’ll see.

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.

    Well done on being caught up with reviews. I have three to write and one of the books I finished weeks ago and I’m struggling to make sense of my notes! And I don’t even have the excuse of nursing a new baby…

    You’d think a book about a person would have more emotion. Hopefully that changes.

    I do my reading during feedings 😂

    Thats a shame about Servant of the Underworld. I did a one star review for a book the other day which was sad. Nothing negative, just that it wasn’t for me and I wrote about the style of the book. 

    Have a great week!

    Aw, sorry to hear you didn’t love Servant of the Underworld. It kinda sucks when a book lingers like that because you just don’t love it.

    My WWW Wednesday is over here!
