It’s Wednesday again! And so here I am with, of course, a WWW Wednesday post! It was another, busy, tiring week, but thankfully I had some extra time to catch up on some reading—yay!
WWW Wednesday is a meme hosted by Sam @ Taking On a World of Words), where we answer the following questions:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?
Currently Reading
- Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
- More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera
I started Glass Sword a few days ago, I think? I haven’t gotten the chance to read it that often though, so I haven’t made as much progress as I would’ve liked, haha. So far it’s okay?? I mean, nothing note-worthy to say other than the fact that I think I’m suddenly a lot more indifferent to the characters.. that’s probably not a good thing. But still, off to a good start!
I also started More Happy Than Not, though I haven’t made much progress with it. I’m literally, only like, 10% through?? But I can’t wait to read more of it! I’m thinking though I might have to put it either this or Glass Sword on pause while I finish one or the other..
Recently Finished
- Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins
- Not If I See You First by Eric Lindstorm
Yes, I finally hopped aboard the Stephanie Perkins train! Well, I’m making my way, at least. I managed to finish Anna and the French Kiss quite quickly, and I really enjoyed it! I recently wrote my review on it too, which you can check out for a more detailed version of my thoughts here.
Not If I See You First actually went waaay past my expectations! I’m not exactly sure what I was expecting, other than the fact that I hoped it would turn out to be good since it sounded interesting. XD But it was such an entertaining read! I hadn’t read many (if at all) books from the perspective of a blind person, and Not if I See You First was written so wonderfully in that aspect. Hopefully I’ll get the chance to write up my review soon!
Read Next
- Wolf by Wolf by Ryan Graudin
- Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
- Gathering Darkness by Morgan Rhodes
- A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab
Omg I swear I’m actually going to at least START Wolf by Wolf this week. I WILL. I swear, everyone is telling me to read this book and I see so many references to it—I can’t resist! I don’t know why I haven’t read it yet, to be honest. Maybe because fear of disappointment? Probably. But I shall be brave and I will pick this up as soon as I finish the books I’m currently reading! Lol.
So many people are squealing about the last book in the Anna and the French Kiss series, Isla and the Happily Ever After, that I can’t help but want to get to it quickly, which means reading the next book! Plus I have heard great things about Lola and the Boy Next Door, and am eager to continue with another Stephanie Perkins book.
The Falling Kingdoms read-along is still going on, and I believe we are due to start the third book, Gathering Darkness.. today! We have to have it finished by March 3rd, I think, so that’s plenty of time. I do want to read it soon though! I’ve heard that things get better in this one in comparison to the first two, so… #hopeful (Though the first two weren’t that bad, mind you.)
The sequel to A Darker Shade of Magic is being released this month, and I’ve been waiting FOREVER to actually pick this up (I’ve been telling myself that I would for so long!) so maybe putting it on the read next this week might push me to pick it up. I don’t know what has been stopping me, really. Maybe fear of disappointment? Oh well. Fingers crossed I’ll pick it up this time!
I felt a little indifferent to the characters too, in Glass Sword, I’m not sure why the sudden change… I can’t wait to know your thoughts about this one, and More Happy Than Not! 😀
I really want to try to read A Darker Shade of Magic, too, I’m curious….
Happy Wednesday Analee!

Haha I’m glad that I’m not the only one who was feeling the change..! I liked the characters well enough in RQ so…
I know right?? Everyone has been saying so much about it! Hopefully we’ll both get around to reading it sometime. 😉
Thank you! 😘

Great line up of books! I’m currently feeling pretty meh about Glass Sword as well, I wasn’t sure if it was just me or if anyone else was feeling like I was. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed Anna and the French Kiss. Happy reading!

Yeah, I haven’t actually read that many reviews on Glass Sword yet, so I’m not sure what the common opinion is?? But it’s nothing outstanding for me right now.. 😕
Yes, Anna and the French Kiss was so adorable!! Thank you!

I was left a little indifferent by Red Queen, so I hope Glass Sword picks up! 🙂
It will be nice to be able to read A Darker Shade of Magic for the first time and then not have to wait to go onto A Gathering of Shadows (although, one of the good things about ADSOM is that it doesn’t end on a massive cliffhanger so you can take a break).
Thanks for visiting my WWW post earlier (https://clairehuston.wordpress.com/2016/02/17/www-wednesday-17th-february-2016/) and happy reading!

I hope so too! ❤ I liked Red Queen well enough, so I'm a bit disappointed in (the book? myself? Not sure lol) seeing this sudden indifference to Glass Sword..
Yes, that's what I was thinking! I'm glad to hear though that it doesn't end on a massive cliffhanger—I feel as if so many books have already taken that route, it would be just another addition to a larger pile of books… if that makes any sense, haha. I can't wait to read it!

Glad you enjoyed Anna and the French Kiss. I read it last year and was surprised by how much I loved it. Despite that I still haven’t read Lola and the Boy Next Door despite having it on my kindle for ages. Really must read soon 🙂

I know right?! I hadn’t expected I’d love it so much, but it was so much fun to read. (!!) Hahaha I hope you get around to reading Lola and the Boy Next Door soon! I can empathize; I’ve read the first book in a series before and hadn’t read the sequel until much later (even though it was already released. I hope it turns out to be good for you when you read it! ❤
