Okay, it’s the end of September and I’m still working on some of my “Summer 2026” reads. Uh-oh.
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?

| Fallen Star by Lee Goldberg |
The Confederacy Myth: How an Insurrection of Slaveholders Tried to Destroy the United States by Connor Williams |
The Jungle of Carabanana by Kate McKinnon, read by Kate McKinnon & Emily Lynne |
Fallen Star isn’t the best Eve Ronin novel, but it’s plenty of fun with some good twists.
So, I get done despairing for our future with Empire of AI, only to turn to despairing for our past with The Confederacy Myth. I’ve got to find a different kind of non-fiction to work through.
Okay, the third volume of The Millicent Quibb School of Etiquette for Young Ladies of Mad Science series is just as loony as its predecessors. The trilogy might end up in my all-time Children’s Fiction list (too soon to tell, I need to experience it another time or two)
What did you recently finish reading?

| Waiting for LeClerc by Vern Smith |
Morfran, Dark Lord Reformed by S.B. West, read by Fred Berman |
Smith’s latest was great (as I said last week).
West’s novel was entertaining enough–a very cozy vibe, but with enough violence and nation-conquering to keep it out of that category. But Berman’s narration sealed it for me. Just knocked it out of the park.
What do you think you’ll read next?

| Bark Humbug by David Rosenfelt |
The Legend of Uh by Aaron N. Hall |
It’s too early in the year for a Christmas-themed book for my taste. But Rosenfelt will help me get over that.
I’ve been wanting to try The Legend of Uh for quite a while–nice of my library to grab the audiobook so I can.
How’re you wrapping up the month?
