I’ve got nothing to use as an intro today…so let’s just get into it, okay?

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?

Cover of Robert E. Lee and Me by Ty Seidule Cover of The Silver State by Gabriel Urza Cover of On Again, Awkward Again by Erin Entrada Kelly & Kwame Mbalia
Robert E. Lee and Me: A Southerner’s Reckoning with the Myth of the Lost Cause
by Ty Seidule
The Silver State
by Gabriel Urza
On Again, Awkward Again
by Erin Entrada Kelly & Kwame Mbalia, read by Jennifer Aquino & James Fouhey

The first half of Robert E. Lee and Me is a maddening combination of mind-numbing repetition and horrific history. I’m not really enjoying the process of reading (I’m pretty sure that you’re not supposed to), but I’m very glad I finally got this to the top of my TBR.

At the same time, I do need something else to break up the reading, so I’m going to start The Silver State this afternoon. It’s been awhile since I did a legal thriller.

I just started On Again, Awkward Again…or am about to when this posts, so I don’t know what to say. The title and then the cover caught my attention…and it looked cute enough. So I took a chance.

What did you recently finish reading?

Cover of Hansel and Gretel by Stephen King, Maurice Sendak Cover of Proven Guilty by Jim Butcher
Hansel and Gretel
by Stephen King, illustrated by Maurice Sendak
Proven Guilty
by Jim Butcher, read by James Marsters

This was a gentle reworking of the classic story, with some repurposed art by Sendak–which King used to help in his retelling. I don’t know that it’s an instant classic, but it was fun (and I look forward to sharing that with the grandcritters when they get a bit older)

I think I enjoyed Proven Guilty this time through than I’m used to. Which is saying something.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Cover of Gnomes of Lychford by Paul Cornell Cover of The Edge of the Crazies by Jamie Harrison
Gnomes of Lychford
by Paul Cornell
The Edge of the Crazies
by Jamie Harrison, read by Justin Price

Like I said Saturday, I thought the Lychford series had already ended…oops. Glad to be proven wrong, if only for 160 pages

I saw something about the newest book in Harrison’s series a few months ago, and it look good. Finally got my hands on a copy of the first in the series to check it out.
