WWW Wednesday—August 12, 2026

Another week, another WWW Wednesday. The end of my 20 Books is in sight–and thankfully, I’m having a blast with them. (we’ll see about the rest of my summer hopefuls next).

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?

Magic & Mystery Collection The Dungeon Anarchist’s Cookbook
by Matt Dinniman, read by Jeff Hays

I just started Dial A for Aunties at lunch today, and am laughing already. I don’t know where this is going to go, but it’s going to be ridiculously fun.

I should be finishing the Magic & Mystery collection tonight, and I’ve been very satisfied with it.

I’ve listened to 13 minutes of the third Dungeon Crawler Carl book, and am very annoyed that I’ve been in an all-day meeting today, and will be in it all day tomorrow (unless people get really quiet, really fast). So it’ll be Friday before I can make real progress in it. I’m kicking myself for those 13 minutes…I should’ve known better.

What did you recently finish reading?

Cover of Crownfall by Michael Vadney Cover of Good Eggs by Rebecca Hardiman

Good Eggs
by Rebecca Hardiman, read by Alana Kerr Collins, Gary Furlong & Siobhan Waring

Crownfall was almost as good as I’d hoped it’d be–and the last 100-150 pages are just fantastic.

It turns out that Good Eggs had been on my Goodreads “Want to Read” list for a while, so my picking it up last week wasn’t the fluke I thought it was. It was a good novel, not one that blew me away, but one I’ll recommend.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Cover of Cold Iron Task by James J. Butcher Cover of Ms. Mebel Goes Back to the Chopping Block by Jesse Q. Sutanto

Ms. Mebel Goes Back to the Chopping Block
by Jesse Q. Sutanto, read by Eunice Wong

Last year, when Cold Iron Task came out, I was so behind with ARCs and Tour reading that I loaned it to a friend immediately so it wouldn’t be around to tempt me. Then when I got it back, I was still so occupied by other things that I set it aside and never got back to it. That ends this week–and hopefully I don’t repeat this cycle next month when the fourth book in the series releases 🙂

Am I possibly overdoing the Sutanto? Yes. But when a Libby hold comes in, you jump on it. Hopefully this protagonist is different enough from Meddelin that I don’t OD.

Do you have anything good cooking?
