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?

| Ancillary Justice by Ann Leckie |
The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst, read by Caitlin Davies |
I haven’t gotten very far (40 or so pages) into Leckie’s book, but there’s something interesting afoot. I just need to figure out what it is.
Yes, some of what I’ve heard makes me think that The Spellshop is too heavy on the romance for my taste. But at the same time, a lot of what I’ve heard makes me think the cozy fantasy is just what I need. So, let’s give it a shot, eh?
What did you recently finish reading?

| City of Last Chances by Adrian Tchaikovsky |
Blind Date with a Werewolf by Patricia Briggs, read by Holter Graham |
There were so many things about City of Last Chances that were great and entertaining. But at least an equal amount that fell flat. And I’m not sure that all the good bits belonged in the same book. I’m really looking forward to the Book Club discussion next week to help me work through some of these things.
The premise for this book seems like a stretch—and while I enjoy Asil, I don’t know that I needed this much of him all at once. Still, it was a fun listen.
What do you think you’ll read next?

| True Color: The Strange and Spectacular Quest to Define Color—from Azure to Zinc Pink by Kory Stamper |
Return to Sender by Craig Johnson, read by George Guidall |
I’m looking forward to learning a lot in this focused bit of word-nerdery from Stamper.
I think I could use a return to Longmire’s Wyoming. Might as well take a minute for it now.
What’s been grabbing your interest lately (or, I suppose, what’s been failing to?)?
