WWW Wednesday: 16th March 2022

WWW Wednesday is a meme hosted by Sam of Taking on a World of Words. It’s a fun midweek reading update that asks you to answer three questions:

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

What are you currently reading?

I started The Bronzed Beasts today! I’ve been meaning to finish this series for ages, so I’m glad I’m finally getting round to it. I haven’t read enough to have loads of thoughts yet, but I love Roshani Chokshi’s writing style it’s so lush. It’s also great to see these characters again because I love them so much.

What did you recently finish reading?

I finished Wild and Wicked Things yesterday. This book is coming out later this month and it’s a sapphic historical fantasy with witches and Great Gatsby vibes. I was really looking forward to this, and although I enjoyed it, I didn’t like it as much as I thought I was going to? I think I forgot that I actually hate the Great Gatsby? I feel like I want a book that has the vibes of Gatsby but with less of a whiny rich person focus. I didn’t vibe with the plot because it followed a character I found very dislikeable, and not in an interesting dislikeable way. Still, the atmosphere was immaculate and I’d definitely recommend it to people! Especially if you actually liked Gatsby! You’ll get a full review on this one soon!

What do you think you”ll read next?

I’m reading Deathless next! I got this one from the library, I know absolutely nothing about it. I read Catherynne M. Valente’s novella Comfort Me With Apples last year and really enjoyed it, so I figured I’d pick up another book by her.
