#WWW Wednesday

April 15, 2020

Is it really Wednesday already? Where has the week gone? I missed WWW Wednesday last week as I can’t seem to get myself together these days! But I am feeling a bit more put together this week, so I have taken this opportunity to update the blog!

With all that being said, lets get to it!!!

WWW Wednesday is hosted by Sam on Taking on a World of Words. If you want to join in on the fun, be sure to tag the original post in the link above. Or feel free to answer the questions in the comment section below! And please feel free to leave your link in the comments as well.

Currently Reading

I am continuing along on my yearly re-read of Harry Potter, and I have made it to the Goblet of Fire. This is the last illustrated edition that is out currently, so I am going to enjoy it while it lasts!

I have also made it to the last book in the Darker Shade of Magic series. This series is quickly becoming one of my favorites!! I am trying to finish up A Conjuring of Light by the end of this week for my local book club as we are planning on having a virtual meeting!

Well, seeing as how I missed last weeks WWW Wednesday, I have a bit more books that were added to my recently finished list!

First, I read Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, which is by far my FAVORITE book from the series! I read the illustrated edition and I cannot even begin to form thoughts on how magnificent this version is. Also, in the wizarding world, I read The Tales of Beetle the Bard and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. I thoroughly enjoyed all the short stores in Tales of Beetle the Bard. Fantastic Beasts was a lot of fun, but I also felt like I was just reading a textbook, which I suppose was the point.

Valentine was a very well written book and was such a break from my normal read. I really enjoyed reading this story from multiple different women’s view points. The book does not have quotation marks, which irritated some people. However, I did not feel that this slowed my reading or the context of the story.

I just finished The Glass Hotel last night, and I have yet to post a rating on Goodreads. I am having trouble with this one since Goodreads doesn’t allow 1/2 stars. This book for me was a solid 3.5 star rating. The beginning of the book was a bit slow, but the overall writing and the second half of the book was so good. The beginning of the book doesn’t quite reach 4 stars, but the writing and the second half of the book doesn’t deserve 3 stars. It is a dilemma I must sort out at some point.

I have been in a rom com mood lately and If I Never Met You fit that so well. I absolutely loved this book and devoured the book in just 3 sittings. I loved the book so much that I am now off in search of more of Mhairi McFarlane’s novels!!

Lastly, A Conjuring of Light and the whole Darker Shade of Magic trilogy is quickly becoming one of my favorite series. The characters are so intriguing and the dark magic draws me in to this world. I cannot say enough good things about Kell and Rhy, I just love them!

What’s Next:

I am finally getting around to reading book two in the Renegades trilogy. I read book one last year and Thi has finally convinced me to do a buddy read with her for Archenemies.

To continue on my mood of rom coms, I have been recommended Meet Cute by a few people, so I have high hopes!

It took me awhile, but I did get around to reading Stalking Jack the Ripper and I thought it was fantastic. I loved the setting and the main character was probably one of my favorite female leads. So with that being said, I think I am going to enjoy the next book in the series, Hunting Prince Dracula.

Thank you for stopping by the blog and a bit longer post this time around since I missed last week. We appreciate your support! Have you read any of these books? What are you currently reading? Let’s have a chat in the comments below!!
