WWW Wednesdays


WWW Wednesdays was started by MizB over at Should Be Reading,

To play along, simply answer the following three (3) Questions:
1. What are you currently reading?
2. What did you recently finish reading?
3. What do you think you'll read next?

Currently Reading
Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters, #1) 
I'm about halfway through this one. I'm really enjoying the characters so far and trying to connect things before the author divulges the information for me. Michelle Zink has really brought to life the setting for me as well.

Recently Finished Reading
 Fixing Delilah 
I liked the characters and struggles created by Sarah Ockler. It was a journey I enjoyed making with Delilah even if it was slightly predictable and had a few plot points that strained for me. You can see my review here if you want.

Paper Valentine

From my review:
"I agree with the ending going a bit faster paced than the rest of the book. But man, did you see that coming? I didn't. I kept mine at five stars though, despite being slightly disappointed with the resolution just being flung at me. So, no, I don't think it was just you. I just felt her writing, the world she created and the rabbit hole (ha!) I was able to go down that kept me forgetting I wasn't actually there made up for that one flaw. :)"

Needless to say, Brenna had me falling in love with her writing all over again.

What I Might Read Next
  Splintered 
This is another NetGalley copy I got a while back and haven't (whoops) gotten around to reading. Malissa has a copy as well, so we thought we might do this one together like we did Paper Valentine. :)  So if we're both ready at the same time... this will be next. *fingers crossed* I'm starting to itch for this one. 

The Madness Underneath (Shades of London, #2) 
(Another NetGalley)
After this one, I'm getting back to demolishing reading my short list for the year. But I'm curious to find out what happens with Rory next. ;)

What have you been reading lately? What do you think you'll read next?

Smiles,
B

  3. Currently reading (and sooo close to finished with) The Weed that Strings the Hangman's bag (I've been sticking installments of Alan Bradley's oh-so-fun Flavia de Luce books between my other reads).

    I just finished Paper Valentine also (as mentioned above).

    Next I'm hoping to read Splintered too, but my copy won't be here until after the release date so the first week of Feb. Becuase *I* wasn't special enough to get my NetGalley copy approved. Poor me T_T +whine whine+ At the rate we're going (especially you, Brandy!) we might each be able to squeeze another one in between! [if you want to wait on me, of course ;) ]
