Oh, hey…time for this post…
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 Blue Horse by Bruce Borgos |
How to Invent Everything: A Survival Guide for the Stranded Time Traveler by (and read by) Ryan North |
Unless the next 80% of this book goes off the rails in a big way, Borgos has locked himself a spot in my TBRs for years to come with this one.
Say you’re a time traveler stuck in the past and you need to recreate civilization–but by cheating, because you don’t want to have to do the trial and error bit, North’s book is exactly what you need.
What did you recently finish reading?

| Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel |
False Value by Ben Aaronovitch, read by Kobna Holdbrook-Smith |
I’m stunned by Station Eleven, it seems beyond good. I’m not sure exactly what Mandel was trying to accomplish there (still working on that), but that book is a doozy.
False Value was just as fun as I remembered–but the pacing was different than I expected. It just threw me a little bit from time to time–you’re doing X already? When is Y going to happen? etc. Memory is a funny thing, eh?
What do you think you’ll read next?

| The Bright Sword by Lev Grossman |
No One Leaves the Castle by Christopher Healy, read by Jessica Almasy |
I’ve been curious about Grossman’s take on Arthurian legend since I first heard about it–time to put the curiosity to an end. Past time, really.
It’s been a dog’s age since I spent time with Healy, this book looked like a good excuse to fix that.
How are you closing out June? Also, how is it the end of June already?
