Another day without a “real” post. The struggle with my new schedule continues–I really thought I had a post ready to go today, I just needed a bit more work. And then I started reading, and didn’t get around to writing. I’m on a roll when it comes to books—not sure it’ll be enough for the 20 Books of Summer, but it’ll be close. It helps that I’ve hit a streak of good ones, too. Let’s take a quick look at some of them with this WWW Wednesday!

The Three Ws are:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?
Easy enough, right?
What are you currently reading?
I’m reading very fun and charming The Good Byline by Jill Orr and am listening to the mildly amusing In a Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson on audiobook.
What did you recently finish reading?
I just finished a couple of books that didn’t hold back the shocking moments: David Nolan’s The Mermaid’s Pool and Cold Wind by C. J. Box, David Chandler (Narrator) on audio.
What do you think you’ll read next?
My next book should be the third Sam Batford novel, Fools Gold by Ian Patrick, and my next audiobook might be Warping Minds & Other Misdemeanors by Annette Marie, Rob Jacobsen and Narrated by Iggy Toma if I the hold comes through at the Library—otherwise, I have no idea.
How are you wrapping up the month?

Just finished “The Cherished Wives” by Linda Amand – Book V of a series I’d never heard of by an author I’d never heard of. Loved it!
Currently reading Gore Vidal’s very snide “1876” and Marguerite Yourcenar’s very dense “The Memoirs of Hadrian”
Tomorrow I’m going off for an R&R week, and am taking with me a couple of fluffier books, P.D.James “The Murder Room” and Karen Fowler’s “We are All Completely Beside Ourselves.
Gave up on Dumas’ “The Red Sphinx.” Too thick, too many characters, too long since I’d been interested in that period of history
