Like I said Saturday, I’ve been largely occupied with non-book related things this week, but I did have time to put together this last night, I should be back to normal tomorrow. But for now, here’s WWW Wednesday!
This meme was formerly hosted by MizB at A Daily Rhythm and revived on Taking on a World of Words—and shown to me by Aurore-Anne-Chehoke at Diary-of-a-black-city-girl.
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?
Today, I’m wrapping up the third Charley Mann thriller, Persecution by RC Bridgestock, and I should be finishing Plugged by Eoin Colfer, John Keating (Narrator) on audiobook.
What did you recently finish reading?
I just finished J. C. Jackson’s Divine and Conquer—a pivotal installment for this series—and Summerland by Michael Chabon on audio.
What do you think you’ll read next?
My next book should be One Decisive Victory by Jeffery H. Haskell, which promises to be chock-full of action. To gear up for the next Toby Daye in a couple of weeks, I’m going to revisit When Sorrows Come by Seanan McGuire, Mary Robinette Kowal (Narrator) via audiobook.
What about you?

Still reading Jon Krakauer’s “Under the Banner of Heaven”, about the most frightening book I’ve read since I can remember. And it’s non-fiction. Also Mark Halperin’s “A Soldier of the Great War”, very slowly. Also (guilty pleasure) re-reading Neil Gaiman’s “Neverwhere” (but not just before bedtime.) And Peter Hessler’s adventures in modern China “Oracle Bones.
I did pick up and breeze through a reread of Georgette Heyer’s “Regency Buck” and remembered that it is one of my least favorite of her classic Regency romances – too much heavy-handed plotting, not enough bubble and spark in the characters. But still a refreshing alternative to the looming disasters in the other three above.
Next…. I dunno, I’ve been reading at “Soldier” and “Banner” so long I’ve forgotten what’s on my TBR

Yeah, I remember that about Under the Banner…, nothing easy about that one.
That’s probably my least favorite Gaiman work, but there were some great moments. Probably worth looking at again, I might change my mind about it.
In the middle of all that, a little lightness (even if not all that great) would be a nice palate cleanser for sure.
