I’m not going to finish off all my reading challenges for the year, I know. But two of them will be complete when I read the books mentioned here. So that’s something.

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?

How to Become the Dark Lord and Die Trying
by Django Wexler
Changes
by Jim Butcher, read by James Marsters

I’ve only heard good things about Wexler’s book. I’ve only dipped a toe in, but what I’ve read so far makes me want to go on.

Changes is just one of those books that blew me away when I read it the first time. And it’s gotten better in each subsequent read. This time (2nd time in audio, and maybe 6th time overall) is no different.

What did you recently finish reading?

Cover of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis Cover of What If...Kitty Pryde Stole the Phoenix Force? by Rebecca Podos
The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
by C.S. Lewis
What If…Kitty Pryde Stole the Phoenix Force?

I’ll gush about the Lewis book in a day or two. Like Changes, I got something new out of it this time, I can’t even guess how many times I’ve read this one.

This What If… book didn’t really click with me until the last 30% or so, but that last bit made up for the rest.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Cover of Strange Practice by Vivian Shaw Cover of The Faithful Executioner by Joel F. Harrington
Strange Practice
by Vivian Shaw
The Faithful Executioner: Life and Death, Honor and Shame in the Turbulent Sixteenth Century
by Joel F. Harrington, read by Jame Gillies

Strange Practice was added to my TBR because I walked into a bookstore with money to spend, and all the books I wanted weren’t in stock. So, the helpful bookseller put it in my hand. A year later, here I am, ready to open it.

I’ve had two friends raving over The Faithful Executioner lately (I posted a small bit of that raving a couple of weeks back). I assume I’ll be raving soon.

How’s December looking for you? Any last-minute things you just have to get read?
