Hi all! It’s time for another WWW Wednesday! I completely forgot until I saw someone else’s post. Oops.


The Ws

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


#CURRENTLYREADING

GlassSword Blurb: 

Mare Barrow’s blood is red—the color of common folk—but her Silver ability, the power to control lightning, has turned her into a weapon that the royal court tries to control.

The crown calls her an impossibility, a fake, but as she makes her escape from Maven, the prince—the friend—who betrayed her, Mare uncovers something startling: she is not the only one of her kind.

Pursued by Maven, now a vindictive king, Mare sets out to find and recruit other Red-and-Silver fighters to join in the struggle against her oppressors.

But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat.

Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion? Or have treachery and betrayal hardened her forever?

I am so so so excited to be finally reading this! I just started and I am not far into it, but oh gods I am stoked! I hope I can get more reading in today since I’ve been plagued with migraines lately. 😥

I AM A PUDDLE OF TEARS AFTER READING THIS BOOK! Like seriously, what even?!

5 out of 5 stars! Review here!


#COMINGUPNEXT

I think I need a contemp to balance out all the long books I’ve been reading lately, but who knows. I may just pick up Deathly Hallows because I am anxious! Oof, I don’t know. I also have been wanting to reread a few of my favorite contemps…hmm…

So here is what I am thinking


There you have it! Thanks for reading and I’ll see you in my next post!

Until next time,

WWW Wednesday #20 | February 10

www

Welcome to my very late WWW Wednesday post. I am barely trying to bring myself to write this post with a pounding migraine because I had the pleasure of catching a cold this week. I told myself I would just skip this week, but I can’t bear to fall behind again. My T5W will be up later this week because I liked the topic.

This meme is hosted by Sam over at Taking on a World of Words.

Wait! HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEW ABOUT THE PUBLICATION OF HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD?!!? OMG! OMG!

Anyway…I had some good progress this week.


The Three Ws are:

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


#CURRENTLYREADING

Voyager

Blurb

Their passionate encounter happened long ago by whatever measurement Claire Randall took. Two decades before, she had traveled back in time and into the arms of a gallant eighteenth-century Scot named Jamie Fraser. Then she returned to her own century to bear his child, believing him dead in the tragic battle of Culloden. Yet his memory has never lessened its hold on her… and her body still cries out for him in her dreams.

Then Claire discovers that Jamie survived. Torn between returning to him and staying with their daughter in her own era, Claire must choose her destiny. And as time and space come full circle, she must find the courage to face the passion and pain awaiting her…the deadly intrigues raging in a divided Scotland… and the daring voyage into the dark unknown that can reunite or forever doom her timeless love.

HarryPotterHalfBloodPrince

Blurb

The war against Voldemort is not going well; even Muggle governments are noticing. Ron scans the obituary pages of the Daily Prophet, looking for familiar names. Dumbledore is absent from Hogwarts for long stretches of time, and the Order of the Phoenix has already suffered losses.

And yet…
As in all wars, life goes on. Sixth-year students learn to Apparate — and lose a few eyebrows in the process. The Weasley twins expand their business. Teenagers flirt and fight and fall in love. Classes are never straightforward, though Harry receives some extraordinary help from the mysterious Half-Blood Prince.

So it’s the home front that takes center stage in the multilayered sixth installment of the story of Harry Potter. Here are Hogwarts, Harry will search for the full and complex story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort — and thereby find what may be his only vulnerability.

I actually loved this book. It was everything that I wanted from Paper Towns by John Green. I loved the message and the plot and characters and the ending! Such a sweet and fun contemporary!

4/5 stars

I finally got a little caught up on The Walking Dead comics. My boyfriend buys these comics for me and I am obsessed with them. I literally cannot wait until Sunday! I’ve been waiting for this since November!!

4/5 stars

WWW Wednesday #13

Ah, Wednesday. You know what that means! 😀 Another WWW Wednesday!


The Three Ws are:

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


What I’m reading

  
Sigh. I am still reading DiA and it’s depressing me that I can’t update more progress. I think I hit a slight slump because nothing I picked up was holding my attention. I picked up three different books and almost  immediately set them all down. But I am getting back into reading again, so we will see.

Okay, enough excuses…


What I just finished

EverythingEverythingCover

This was really cute. I read it really quickly and I am so proud I have finally completed a book. However, it wasn’t what I was expecting. Well, no it was, but I just wanted more. My review is scheduled to go live Saturday so be on the look out!


What should I read next?

I’m actually going to leave this blank, because I have no idea. I need to read Sugar Skulls for review and I am buddy reading Angelfall with my lovely friend this month so it may be a toss up between those. Or I might just get into Harry Potter finally. Who knows…Or! I might get Falling Kingdoms and give that a try finally? Hmm

HPPhoenixangelfallsugarskulls


Well, there you have it! My very short and pathetic update. It makes me so sad 😦 But then what do I expect when I haven’t read half the week right? Anyway…

Until next time,
