It’s “What are you reading?” Wednesday!

I’ve seen a lot of bookish memes and list ideas here on the book-blogging circuit, and I wish I could do all of them! One of my favorites has been a trend of bloggers posting their current reads on Wednesdays.

This week I’ll be taking inspiration from Taking On a World of Words, and trying out their “WWW Wednesday!”

I’ve been MIA for a week or so and I thought that this would be the perfect way to jump back in. After a week of family visiting, apartment deep cleaning, and being sick, I am ready to get back to my reading and writing! Hope you didn’t miss me!

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 currently reading:

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

I am really enjoying this book so far, and that’s about all I know about it. I know it’s about people and a civilization after an apocalyptic event, but I’m only in the beginning so I’m still going along for the ride. I have heard so many good things about this book, so I’m really looking forward to the rest.

The Wicked Deep by Shea Ernshaw

This book has been fun! I was feeling in the mood for something witchy, and The Wicked Deep has hit the spot. This YA Fantasy has been spooky, dramatic, and mysterious, and I’m really excited to see how it ends.

What I’ve recently finished:

The Lady Rogue by Jenn Bennett

I really enjoyed this, but I kind of knew I would when I first requested it from Netgalley. It’s called “The Lady Rogue,” after all. Rogues are some of my favorite things (in books and in life) and this time its a lady? Hell yeah! This YA fantasy adventure was fast-paced, character driven, and highly enjoyable. This one hit shelves today, so keep an eye out at your local bookstore!

What I think I’ll read next:

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottilieb

This book looks so interesting. From what I know, it’s a book about therapy written by a therapist and discussing her own processes in therapy with her own therapist and what her life is like. Ha! Yes. I was a Psych major in college and as someone who goes to therapy also, this has endless appeal to me. I can’t wait to report back about it.

The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang

This looks really good and I’ve heard such high recommendations for it, so I have high expectations. From what I know, this book follows an asian-inspired fantasy world through a series of devastating wars that shape their culture and character. The sequel to this book just came out, so I’m eager to get through this one first!

See you all on Friday!

Top 10 Tuesday

Top 10 Tuesday

Top 10 Tuesday was created by The Broke and The Bookish in June 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

This week’s topic asks us to list the “Books On My Summer 2019 TBR.”

I have got a LOT of books that I want to read this summer, but below I’ve listed mostly books that I’m on schedule to read for Netgalley or various book exchanges or challenges I’m participating in, except for a few that are just for fun! There are so many exciting books coming down the line, I won’t have time to list or read them all. Here goes!

  1. The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware
  2. Aphrodite Made Me Do It by Trista Mateer
  3. Recursion by Blake Crouch
  4. The Beautiful by Renee Ahdieh
  5. The Lady Rogue by Jenn Bennett
  6. Bring Me Back by B.A. Paris
  7. Wilder Girls by Rory Power
  8. The King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo
  9. Reverie by Ryan La Sala
  10. Ill Wind by Nevada Barr

And here are just a few of the other books that I hope I get to read this summer! Too many books, never enough time. SIGH.

What are you reading this summer??
