WWW Wednesday – 13th March 2019

La Femme Livresque | A Reader To Whatever End37 Comments

I’m so excited for this week’s reading update – I FINALLY READ BOOKS! PLURAL! 😜

WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @ Taking On A World of Words.

The three Ws to be answered:

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?

After finishing a book yesterday afternoon, I tried reading a chapter of a few different books to see which one to pick up next and I ended up starting two:

  • This Savage Song by Victoria Schwab: Page 13 of 427
    Finally reading my very first Schwab book! So excited for this one. 😍
  • Divine Evil by Nora Roberts: Page 9 of 564
    I’m not proud of this but when I first got this book a few years ago, I skimmed a few pages and something creeped me out so I put it away for a while. But it’s a Nora Roberts book and I love her, so, about time I read it. I think it’ll be a good read, I’ve read a lot more dark and creepy stuff since then.

If you’ve been following my blog long enough, you’ll know that I’ve been trying to read two gigantic books since January but haven’t been making any progress. So, I’ve put Elantris on hold for now but I might pick up and read a few pages of Voyager every few days. What to do, when you’re not feeling it, you’re not feeling it. 🤷‍♀️

So this week, for the first time since the new year began, I managed to read 3 books!! I feel so much better now, finally I’m on track for my Goodreads Goal of 60 books for this year. Here’s what I read:

  • King of Scars: This felt more like Nina and Zoya’s story than Nikolai’s but a lot happened – I enjoyed it quite a bit.
    Find my review here!
    My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5
  • P.S. I Still Love You: This was about as cute as the first book though I did get a little frustrated with some of the twists at times. I do like where this is heading.
    The review should be up in a couple of days.
    My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.25
  • The Kiss Quotient: Just finished this in less than two days and OMG! I feel so giddy and silly and sweet and I can’t stop gushing!
    The review should be up in a few days – I need to sit down and try to form a coherent sentence or two first.
    My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

These were the other books still on my March TBR that I was choosing from and they didn’t make the cut this week. But I’ll pick one of them up as I finish one of my current reads.

  • Loyalty In Death by JD Robb
  • The Beauty of the Moment by Tanaz Bhathena
  • The Flower Girls by Alice Clark-Platts

Which one do you think I should pick up next? Have you read any of the books mentioned above? What did you think? Talk to me in the comments below!

  4. Awesome reads so far! Go you! And hey no biggie on putting down a book, we all do it, some books like you said, just don’t give you the feeling to keep going at least not in that moment. I’ll be keeping an eye out to see what you think of The Flower Girls

  6. yay for finishing books!!! and it looks like you’ve had some great reads recently, so double yay for that! (I absolutely agree, sometimes you just gotta put books on hold … I’ve been rereading The Cruel Prince since January but haven’t made a ton of progress 😅 so it’s kind of been pushed off until next week, when I’m on spring break.)

    This Savage Song is actually one of my least favorite Schwab books (well, the sequel is, technically; I thought the first one was good but didn’t quite hook me for some reason) but I hope you’re enjoying it! I’ve been so excited to read King of Scars and my library hold just came in, so rip my planned reading order 👀

  7. I am only slightly jealous that you have already read King of Scars but that’s fine, no worries. Also, you put Elantris on hold, oh no!! I hope you get to finish your massive books though because they are the best. Also, I hope you enjoy your current reads too!

  9. You rocked it this week! I have never been one to read multiple books at a time or list them at a time… but I have the last few weeks and you make me feel much better about it… thank you… wish I could help you choose where to start but I haven’t read any of your next choices!

  12. I loved this! I felt the same with P.S I still Love You! So I’m glad I’m not the only one.
    I’ve not read ‘This Savage Song’ but I have loved another book by this author, so I may give this one a go!
    Lovely post!

  14. I also love picking up a big tome of a book every now and then and so far I haven’t this year. I LOVED voyager, but I do understand why some people might find it a slow read because Gabaldon is very found of detail, lots and lots of detail.

    Happy reading.
