WWW Wednesday—April 2, 2025

Poking my head up long enough to post this–hopefully first of two for today.

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?

Seems easy enough, right? Let’s take a peek at this week’s answers:

What are you currently reading?


The Price of Power by Michael Michel	Baby City by Freida McFadden & Kelly Stoddard, read by Phillipa Miller

Last night I pulled the “well, just one more chapter and then I’ll get to work” move three times with Price of Power, and that’s a testimony to my self-control. I easily could’ve kept going.

I’m not sure how Baby City ended up on my holds list, but I’m going to trust past me…for a little while, anyway.

What did you recently finish reading?


Parable of the Sower by Octavia E. Butler	A Little History of Music by Robert Philip, read by Zeb Soanes

I’ve been thinking almost non-stop about Butler’s book for days now. I’m not sure when I’m going to stop.

I learned a little about music from Philip, almost enough to justify the time spent listening.

What do you think you’ll read next?


My Documents by Kevin Nguyen	Happy Jack and the Scary-Ass Book of Doom by Rich Partain, read by JP Adams

The ARC for Nguyen’s novel looked like a chilling look at what could easily go wrong in the U.S. when I requested it. Now, it just looks chilling. I may regret picking this up.

On the other hand, Partain’s book looks like a fun antidote to all the serious things I’ve been reading and listening to lately.
