WWW Wednesday 5 August 2015

WWW Wednesdays was originally hosted at Should Be Reading and has now been revived by Taking on a World of Words. The three W's are;
1) What are you Currently Reading?
2) What did you recently finish reading?
3) What do you think you'll read next?

Ann:

Currently Reading: 

I am currently reading The Essence by Kimberly Derting, I have just started it but I am not that excited about it because although I thought the start of the first book (The Pledge) was good I thought the ending was a bit boring. I am also currently reading Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery because I decided to read a classic this month and I am really enjoying it - it is an amazing book.

Recently Finished Reading:

The Pledge by Kimberly Derting which was not as good as I thought it would be, but it was still good enough for me to move on to the second book.

Thinking of Reading Next: 

If I enjoy The Essence more than I enjoyed The Pledge then I will probably be moving on to The Offering by Kimberly Derting. If I decide not to read The Offering then I will be reading Icons by Margaret Stohl, this was on my TBR for July but I didn't have time to read it so I will be reading it this month instead.

Clare:

Currently Reading: 

I am nearly at the end of Third Girl by Agatha Christie which is the 35th book in the Poirot series. I realised after I started reading that I recognised the plot from the TV series which means the mystery element is slightly spoiled for me but I am still enjoying it overall. My classic for the month is Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne which I am only 36 pages into at the moment. So far it has been very science-y but the action has started to pick up a little so I have hope.

Recently Finished Reading: 

I just finished Unremembered by Jessica Brody which is about a girl who wakes up as the sole survivor of a plane crash, and she has no memory of who she is or where she came from. This book started out really well and I was engaged in the story, but about three quarters of the way through things went in a weird (and slightly confusing) direction. I will probably pick up the sequels at some point but its definitely not a priority for me.

Thinking of Reading Next: 

I am meant to be reading The Gift by Alison Croggon next which is a fantasy book, its also quite a chunky book so I am feeling a little daunted by it. I may decide instead to read The Captain's Daughter by Leah Fleming since I am feeling in a bit of a historical mood lately.
