WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme revived and hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words.

The idea is to answer the three questions below and leave a link to your post in the comments for others to look at. No blog? No problem! Just leave a comment with your responses.

What are you currently reading?

What have you just finished reading?

What are you going to read next?

I haven’t posted one of these in a hot minute, so let’s get going.

Currently Reading: I’m currently still reading Half Sick of Shadows by Laura Sebastian. I really need to finish this one since it’s due back to the library soon. Typically I read one book at a time, but lately I’ve been reading multiple. So I’m also reading Prophecy of Love by T. Satterfield and The Cicada Tree by Robert Gwaltney. Both of these are from NetGalley.

Recently Finished: I just finished reading a NetGalley ARC of Immortal Souls by Phoenix Vieira. I submitted my review to NetGalley already, but expect to see it on my blog on December 13. As I mentioned in my November wrap-up, I also finished The Girl of Dorcha Wood by Kristin Ward for a blog tour.

Reading Next: After I finish the above books, I’m not sure what I’ll pick up next. I expected to have Skin of the Sea by Natasha Bowen in hand from my library by this point, but for some reason it’s still “on order.” My county is usually pretty quick with making new releases available for readers, so I’m a bit surprised that it’s been over a month since the release date and my library still doesn’t have it available. I can’t help but wonder if this might be related to supply chains? If I’m still waiting for this book to come in by the time I finish some NetGalley ARCs, I’ll probably just keep going that route.

Currently Reading: I’m currently reading Half Sick of Shadows by Laura Sebastian. It’s marketed as a feminist retelling of the Lady of Shalot. I haven’t read too far along yet, but I’m already impressed by the writing style.







Recently Finished: I just finished reading a NetGalley ARC of The Bone Shard Emperor by Andrea Stewart. It follows the first book, The Bone Shard Daughter. I expect to publish this review in late November or early December, so keep a look out!






Reading Next: I plan to focus more on my NetGalley ARCs for the remainder of the year. But Skin of the Sea by Natasha Bowen, a new release, arrived on hold at the library for me. So I need to read that first since there’s a hold list and therefore I’m only allowed to keep it checked out for three weeks.

Currently Reading: I’m currently reading a NetGalley ARC of The Bone Shard Emperor by Andrea Stewart. I read and reviewed The Bone Shard Daughter earlier this year. I love how unique the magic system is. I’m so glad the publisher approved my request to read the ARC of the next book.






Recently Finished: I was feeling a little down at the end of October, so I decided to pick up A Deal With the Elf King by Elise Kova. It was exactly what I needed to read and I loved the strong female character in it. It’s a standalone fantasy romance, which is great if you’re not looking to obligate your time to another series.






Reading Next: Next I’ll probably read a library copy of Half Sick of Shadows by Laura Sebastian. It’s marketed as a feminist retelling of the Lady of Shalot. I’ve never read any historical fiction or fantasy for this time period, so I’m looking forward to it. But my next read isn’t super set in stone and I may end up reading one of my approved NetGalley requests.

Currently Reading: I’m currently reading The Book of Uriel by Elyse Hoffman since I’ll be taking part in The Write Reads book tour later this month. The description is so intriguing I just couldn’t resist!






Recently Finished: I originally posted about this in a First Lines Friday post. I should have finished it earlier, but instead I devoted time to my first book tour review. I also really wanted to review another approved NetGalley request to increase my review percentage. Nevertheless, I’ve finally finished it and will post my review before the year is out! Spoiler alert: I definitely recommend it!





Reading Next: Next I’ll read The Bone Shard Emperor by Andrea Stewart. It’s the next book after The Bone Shard Daughter, which I reviewed earlier this year. I’m fairly new to NetGalley so my review percentage isn’t the best right now. However, if you don’t try you’ll never know what could be, so I decided to request it anyway. To my surprise my request was accepted, so I’m very excited to read this ARC!
