WWW WEDNESDAYS : 12th Aug


This is a weekly book meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words and I thought it was a great Idea. So WWW WEDNESDAYS… is a weekly event where you share (1)What you’re currently reading, (2)What you recently finished reading, and (3)What you think you’ll read next.... And here goes

Q1) What are you Currently reading?
A1) I am currently between books at the moment. I just finished reading a book yesterday and I'm agonizing over which book to pick up next. Right now the choice is between The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black and The Final Empire by Brandon Sanderson. I am leaning towards The Final Empire for the time being and might decide to pick that up.

Q2) What did you recently finish reading?
A2) I just finished reading A Madness So Discreet by Mindy McGinnis. I really enjoyed this book. It is based in the 18th / 19th Century in America. The protagonist is a lady of society who has been locked up by her family in an insane asylum while she is with child. I am not really great at summarizing the book so I would suggest you read it here.

Q3) What will be your next read?
A3) If I decide to pick up The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black my next read would be the Final Empire. I have already read the Final Empire but I am determined to complete reading this trilogy so I need to reread the first book to move on to The Well of Ascension and The Hero of Ages. If I pick up The Final Empire then I will move on the next 2 books in the series.

What are you planning to read next? Happy Reading!!

WWW Wednesdays : June 25th

This is a weekly book meme hosted by Should Be Reading and I thought it was a great Idea. So WWW WEDNESDAYS… is a weekly event where you share (1)What you’re currently reading, (2)What you recently finished reading, and (3)What you think you’ll read next.... And here goes

Q1) What are you Currently reading?
A1) I am currently reading 77 Shadow Street by Dean Koontz.The last time I wrote this post I was reading another of Koontz's books. I am liking 77 Shadow Street more than I did Darkest Evening of the Year. Though this book is not as great as the one's I've read previously I still like it. It somehow has a bit of The Shining feel to it, mostly because it has got to do with an old building and its previous tenants.

Q2) What did you recently finish reading?
A2) I recently finished reading Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson. I had watched this movie when it first came out and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was the same with the book. I cried at the end.It is a good children's book.

Q3) What will be your next read?
A3) I had begun reading Lips Touch by Laini Taylor but was side tracked by other books. I just was not able to read a book to its end a few days back. 77 Shadow street has brought me out of that mini slump. So I am thinking of reading another Koontz book (maybe Strangers) or a Stephen King book (probably The Stand).

What are you planning to read next? Happy Reading!!

WWW Wednesdays - June 18th

This is a weekly book meme hosted by Should Be Reading and I thought it was a great Idea. So WWW WEDNESDAYS… is a weekly event where you share (1)What you’re currently reading, (2)What you recently finished reading, and (3)What you think you’ll read next.... And here goes

Q1) What are you currently reading?
A1) I am currently reading The Darkest Evening of the Year by Dean Koontz. A few years back I discovered Dean Koontz and I just could not get enough of his books. I read close to 20 of his books over the course of a year. This book was just coming out then and I was quite looking forward to it. But I got side tracked by other books and it just didn't happen. But now I'm taking part in a read - a - thon on Instagram called #bookstagramathon and I thought this is the right time to read it. I am 3/4ths of the way in to the book. I am liking it but it isn't as good as his other books like Seize the Night, False Memory, Life Expectancy and many more. One of the best things about his books is the importance he gives to the dogs in the books. I love dogs and his portrayal o the dynamics between the person and their dog is just great.

Q2) What book did you recently finish reading?
A2)  I just finished reading The last Policeman by Ben H. Winters. This was a book about a Detective who decides to solve a murder even though the date of the end of the world is known to everyone. He takes it upon himself to regard a death that seems like a suicide, when most deaths are suicides, and looks past it to consider foul play. I am not doing the story any favors by telling you this premise. I would suggest you read the blurb on Goodreads here and decide for yourselves if this book is great. I enjoyed reading this and look forward to reading the rest of the books in this trilogy.

Q3) What do you plan on reading next?
A3) I have not really thought about what I will read next. I might read The Lost Boy by Camilla Lackberg. This is part of the Patrik Hedstrom series and I have read the previous 6 books in the series and I am in a mood for crime/thriller books. But this could change by the time I finish reading my current read.

WWW Wednesdays...

I stumbled across this weekly book meme hosted by Should Be Reading and I thought it was a great Idea. So WWW WEDNESDAYS… is a weekly event where you share (1)What you’re currently reading, (2)What you recently finished reading, and (3)What you think you’ll read next.... And here goes

Q1) What are you currently reading?
A1) I started reading Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor and I am LOVING it!! I am about 200 pages in and the story has just sucked me in.

Q2) What did you recently finish reading?
A2) I recently finished reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor. As you can surmise from my previous answer I just could not wait to get my hands on the next book. I am so glad this is a series that is complete. I have always heard great things about this book but I was apprehensive about picking t up. One of the reasons was because this was an unfinished series. And now there isn't anything holding me back :)

Q3) What do you think You will read next?
A3) I will probably read the last installment in the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy - Dreams of Gods and Monsters. You might ask why I say "probably" and not "definitely", but I think the last books in a series are my kryptonite. I usually have to force myself to pick them up. This way the world and the story still exists for me. I just recently completed the Poison Study series after having read the first 2 books close to 7 months ago.. Even though I had all the books. And I have the last book in the Feed trilogy by Mira Grant. So I am keeping my fingers crossed that my stupid habit doesn't surface this time around and I get to read the 3rd installment - Dreams of Gods and Monsters.

What about all of you . What are your reading plans for the week?
