Welcome to this week’s WWW Wednesday post, a meme hosted by Sam @ Taking on a World of Words. Don’t forget to go take a look at what everyone else is reading! You can post your own WWW in the comment thread here.
The Three W’s Are:
- What are you currently reading?
- What did you recently finish reading?
- What do you think you’ll read next?
Currently Reading:
My Own Words by Ruth Bader Ginsburg. My Own Words is the April selection for my book club, and I realized it would be best read sporadically in between other books. I started it last night to give myself enough time to finish it before April. My Own Words is a complication of Justice Ginsburg’s most compelling speeches, positive and dissenting argument’s, lectures, and writings over the span of her life.
The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas. I literally just started this one, so I don’t have a lot to say about it yet!
Just Finished:
Where the Mountain Meets the Moon by Grace Lin. I finished ACOL while we were out-of-town, and decided to pick up a book from M’s stash in her backpack. This is what I chose, and it was an excellent choice! A fantasy story about a young Chinese girl who goes off on adventure in search of The Old Man of the Moon, to ask him how she can change her family’s fortune. It reminded me a bit of The Wizard of Oz, and was a delightful little book.
Up Next:
To be honest, I don’t know! Game of Thrones is hanging out in the queue, as are a few Agatha Christie novels and The Brief and Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao. I’ll probably wait to see what I’m in the mood for next.
I’m curious about My Own Words…and The Hate U Give has been showing up everywhere for a while. Must read! Thanks for sharing…and here’s MY WWW POST
My Own Words is best for people who want to read original writings by RBG. By nature of her occupation, it is heavy on legalese, which I enjoy, but I know not everyone does. It is not a memoir. Each section is prefaced by a small chapter written by her official biographers, based on years of interviews with her. I’m really enjoying it.
I’ve heard lots of great things about The Hate U Give… Enjoy your books this week and happy reading! Here’s my WWW.
THUG is a book I am SO SO excited to get my hands on. I can’t wait!
Here’s my WWW.
I haven’t had a chance to read all day, I keep staring longingly over to where THUG is sitting, LOL.
The Hate You Give has been popping up everywhere and seems to be getting some great reviews. I hope you enjoy.
Just ordered The Hate U Give from the library but still in cataloguing. Finished Lincoln in the Bardo – amazing must read; now reading Bojalian’s The Sleepwalker; and next – something from the Baileys (old Orange) longest for fiction by women.
