WWW Wednesdays

WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by MizB at

Should Be Reading.

To play along, answer the following three questions:

What are you currently reading?

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

What are you currently reading?

I’ve been awake since 2:30 AM, so I read the sample chapters and decided to buy it based on those.

I have been reading these two for awhile as I work through some of my manuscripts.

What did you recently finish reading?

I so wanted to like this, but it just wasn’t for me. The main character was hostile almost the entire read. Plus, the leading guy—Damen—was a paper doll cutout with no flaws, no depth.

Loved this! I bought Mockingjay for my Kindle, but need some time to process this one before I finish the trilogy. I am going to be sad when it is over. Talk about incredible character development! Wow!

What do you think you’ll read next?

Not sure. I’ll be staying at the hospital with my son after his surgery. It will depend on the whole mood. In addition to adding Mockingjay to my Kindle, I also added Lola and the Boy Next Door. So I'll just wait and see.

WWW Wednesdays

Things have been a little crazy this week with medical issues for the littlest and the almost-loss of his insurance, so I skipped Travel Tuesdays. However, things have seemingly calmed down. With the exception of a string of events this morning at the hospital that—in retrospect—are humorous but were not at the time. See Zane’s blog if you’re interested in the story and his goings on.

Anyway, today is WWW Wednesdays, a weekly meme hosted by the wonderful MizB at Should Be Reading.

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…

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

What are you currently reading?

I LOVED (yes, the shouting is intentional) her book Refuge. Terry Tempest Williams is such an eloquent and evocative writer. Plus, she often weaves nature into her writing, which I absolutely adore. This has been on my shelf for quite some time; I am not sure why I haven’t picked it up sooner.

What did you recently finish reading?

I could not put this down! It was really that good! I bought Catching Fire, too. But I need to process The Hunger Games a little while longer before delving into book #2.

Okay, this is so not my type of book. But it was on sale at Waldenbooks due to their going-out-of-business liquidation. So I gave it a try. It showed the world inside reality TV (it is fiction, though), but there was little depth of character and oh-so-much telling and not showing. I wanted to like this book, but I really didn’t feel connected to it in any way.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Hmmmm…I really need to get around to Truth & Beauty by Ann Patchett. It has been on my to-read list before.
