Hey kids, what time is it?

It’s WWW Wednesday Time!

Yeah, the call-and-response thing works better for Howdy Doody, doesn’t it? I’d had this prepped and scheduled then at midnight I closed the book on The Treadstone Resurrection and had to do a quick update. Because I’m just that committed to accuracy.*

* and, yeah, it’s a good way to procrastinate.

The Three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

Easy enough, right?

What are you currently reading?

I’m reading Burying the Newspaper Man by Curtis Ippolito for a Tour Stop next week and am listening to The Rags of Time by Peter Grainger, Gildart Jackson (Narrator) on audiobook—part my favorite audio series by far.

What did you recently finish reading?

I just finished a thriller, Joshua Hoods’s The Treadstone Resurrection, and the near polar-opposite, Paper: Paging Through History by Mark Kurlansky, Andrew Garman (Narrator) on audio.

What do you think you’ll read next?

My next book should be something I’ve been wanting to start for months, Born in a Burial Gown by M. W. Craven and You’ll Never Believe What Happened to Lacey: Crazy Stories about Racism written and narrated by Amber Ruffin & Lacey Lamar on audiobook—my wife tells me it’s a great mix of something that made her laugh and made her angry.

Well, Murphy and his Law scuttled my plans for the day, at least I have time to get a WWW up…

What are you currently reading?

I’m reading Calculated Risks by Seanan McGuire and am listening to the new Audible novella Junkyard Bargain by Faith Hunter, Khristine Hvam (Narrator) on audiobook.

What did you recently finish reading?

I just finished Ben Aaronovitch’s What Abigail Did That Summer and The Unkindest Tide by Seanan McGuire, Mary Robinette Kowal (Narrator) on audio (and there were a couple of the moments I most looked forward to hearing Kowal’s take on, they did not disappoint).

What do you think you’ll read next?

My next book should be Drop the Mikes by Duncan MacMaster–I fully expect to rave about it next week–and Paper: Paging Through History by Mark Kurlansky, Andrew Garman (Narrator) on audiobook (not just because I love the irony, but that helps).

What about you? What’re your double-you-double-you-double-yous?

It’s the middle of the week and time for me to check in on my reading.

What are you currently reading?

I’m reading Cover Blown by Ian Robinson—hot off the press—and am listening to Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore by Matthew Sullivan, Madeleine Maby (Narrator) on audiobook—something I’ve been meaning to read for 2-3 years.

What did you recently finish reading?

I just finished Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club—a charming and clever novel—and Smoke Bitten by Patricia Briggs, Lorelei King (Narrator) on audio.

What do you think you’ll read next?

In a very strange confluence of schedules, Seanan McGuire’s two bigger series are next on my lists—next up are her Calculated Risks and The Unkindest Tide (Narrated by Robinette Kowal) as I almost complete my trip through the Toby Daye audiobooks. Thankfully those series don’t feel like they’re written by the same person, so I’m not going to have a problem (I think).

What are you reading?

A three-day weekend left me scrambling to get together a WWW Wednesday before I was really mentally prepared for it. I don’t know about you, but I took advantage of that bonus day to read more than I expected to, which made the day all the nicer.

What are you currently reading?

I’m reading Latent Damage by Ian Robinson, a new police procedural, and am listening to the last Eddie LaCrosse novel—He Drank, and Saw the Spider by Alex Bledsoe, Stefan Rudnicki (Narrator) on audiobook.

What did you recently finish reading?

I just finished Sara Gran’s Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead, an unusual P.I. novel, and Blood Trail by C.J. Box, David Chandler (Narrator) on audio—possibly the best in the series.

What do you think you’ll read next?

My next book should be Oh, That Shotgun Sky by Sarah Chorn (which will probably be beautiful and depressing, because that seems to be her wheelhouse) and an audiobook to be determined.
