Currently Reading:
Roots: The Saga of an American Family by Alex HaleyI don’t have as much time to read this week as I would like, and so far, I have only made it to page 140. Roots is a story spanning generations about a man – and his descendents – who is captured in 18th century Gambia and sold into slavery in the American colonies. I am 9 pages away from the moment where he is kidnapped; Kunta Kinte is currently a young Mandinka man enjoying life in his village. I hate what is to come for him.
Just finished:
Sailor Moon, Volume 1 by Naoko Takeuchi – My daughter is reading these as well. Good, cheesy fun.
The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness – You can find my review here.
What’s Next:
A Darker Shade of Magic and A Gathering of Shadows by V.E. Schwab – I’ve heard that books published under Victoria Schwab are YA, and book published under V.E. Schwab are adult, so I am curious what sets these apart from her YA work and makes them adult fantasy fiction.
What is coming up next on your reading list?

I’m not sure if I’d call Schwab’s books adult fantasy fiction, but they are good! I hope you enjoy them 🙂
Thanks for visiting my WWW! Happy reading! 🙂
Thanks! I hope I enjoy them too. 😊 happy reading to you, too!
I really need to read those two books by V.E. Schwab. Have you read them?
Hope, I haven’t read them yet. But they will definitely be up next!
I also want to read the books by Victoria. Great choices. Here’s mine http://wp.me/p7KAUt-4B
Thanks for stopping by!

Same here! And now my daughter is getting into it. 😃 She loves the characters.
I haven’t read Schwab’s books, but I see them everywhere. Maybe I’ll have to try one. The New Jim Crow caught my eye. Thanks for sharing, and here’s MY WWW POST
The New Jim Crow was excellent, and it’s actually quite serendipitous that I chose to read Roots as a follow-up. I will definitely be posting a review for the Schwab books once I read them! I have seen them mentioned everywhere as well.
I loved ADSoM and I’m looking forward to AGoS. I hope you enjoy them as well! Happy reading and thanks for participating in WWW Wednesday!
Thanks! I’m hoping I love the first one enough to read them both back to back!
Oh oh I am a huge fan of VE Schwab!! *flails for eternity* I’ve read 5 of her books and I actually like her adult ones better, despite usually being a huge YA fan!😂 But I do love how she writes both. :’) Anyway. Enjoy!! So much magic and sass and excitement!
Thanks for stopping by @ Paper Fury!
I had both books signed by Victoria Schwab at a festival last weekend, and it made me want to start reading them right away! I always appreciate an author that writes in multiple genres.
Enjoy The Darker Shade of Magic books 😀 http://www.curious-daisy.com/www-wednesdays/www-wednesday-september-14-2016/
Thanks, I hope to!
