WWW Wednesdays (Jan.18)

January 18, 2012

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?




My answers:

What are you currently reading? I’m between books, again. Haven’t picked up anything else, ’cause I’m not yet sure what I’m in the mood for. But, I have the day off, so I’m going to dig into a couple and see which one holds my interest longer. ;)




What did you recently finish reading? I finished “Kiss Crush Collide” by Christina Meredith on Sunday night. I’d picked it up late on Sunday afternoon, and just couldn’t put it down! Even rushed through my dinner so I could get back to it! LOL. But, I had it finished before bedtime. Hee hee… ;)




What do you think you’ll read next? Goodness knows! Choices stand at: “Stay With Me” by Paul Griffin (owned) | “Creativity” by Mihaly Csikzentmihaly (owned) | “Matched” by Ally Condie (library) | or “Go Put Your Strengths to Work” by Marcus Buckingham (library). Like I said, I will have to give several a try, today, and see what catches me.




PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own WWW Wednesdays post, or share your answers in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks! :D

    I’m reading the second book in the Matched series right now :) I liked Matched pretty well. I think it was too short, but I liked the plot a ton! I hope you are enjoying it!

    I myself read some YA books. It seems so many blogs are dedicated solely (or mostly) to them. I think it’d be an interesting post to talk about what it is about YA books today that garner an adult audience.
    Anyway!
    Here’s my list for the day: http://wellreadfish.blogspot.com/2012/01/www-wednesdays.html

      So very true! I often wonder why I, myself, am so drawn to the YA books! I think, though, it’s mainly because (1) the storylines are always so varied, as opposed to what you find in “adult” fiction, (2) I love the adrenaline rush of those teenage relationships ;) and (3) I like that the books are usually fairly easy reading — I can breeze through them without having to dig too deeply into my own, current life problems — they don’t remind me much of my current life stance, so therefore they’re more of a true “escape” for me … which is what I’m looking for when I read fiction. ;)

    I love reading about the books other people are reading! It helps me add interesting titles to my TBR pile. This week, I’m in the middle of Divergent by Veronica Roth, and I’m really enjoying it!

    Hi: Great meme! I included these in longer posts here – http://yearofreadingmybooks.wordpress.com/2012/01/18/blood-and-love-and-dickens/ but I just finished Tale of Two Cities by Dickens, Victoria Glendinnning’s Anthony Trollope biography (amazing), and Helen R. Hull’s Heat Lightning. I’m reading Kathryn Hughes’ George Eliot biography (wonderful), and I’ll be moving into Dorothy Whipple’s The Priory and George Eliot’s Middlemarch next. Thanks! Ruby

    I want to be interested in Matched, but I know from experience that dystopian always sits badly with me. I hope you’re enjoying it, though — I know a lot of people are.

    Here’s my WWW for the week. Happy reading, everyone!
