WWW Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @ Taking On A World Of Words.
Each week we answer the following three questions:
-What have you recently finished reading?
-What are you currently reading?
-What are you reading next?

I had a great week filled with Sarah J. Maas.  I finished up the last two audiobooks of the Throne of Glass series that I have (QoS is too expensive for me right now) and then started and finished A Court of Thorns and Roses in anticipation of A Court of Mist and Fury coming out in less than a month.  I also started and finished Too Late by Colleen Hoover.  She wrote this story on Wattpad in installments as a thank you to her readers.  It was superbly intense and pretty graphic.

Bartol beginning with Inescapable.

Because I am in the middle of a very long, dense book I don’t have any books to put forth for my Up Next section.  More than likely I will still be reading Seveneves by next Wednesday.

What have you been reading lately?

  4. I need to make some kind of “book releases” calendar. I’ve managed to forget about The Raven King and the 5th Throne of Glass book coming out soon! :/
    That is a great SJ Maas week! Reminds me of the brilliant week I had marathoning the whole ToG series having discovered Maas through ACOTAR (and surely that’s got a 2nd book I should put on my releases calendar…).

    Thanks for visiting my WWW post earlier (https://clairehuston.wordpress.com/2016/04/13/www-wednesday-13th-april-2016/) and happy reading!

  5. I love Passenger! I hope you enjoy it!
    You’ve had a fantastic SJ Maas week! I need to reread ACOTAR, but I have so many books to read *cries in corner*. What did you think of the audiobook for it? I’ve thought about getting it and reading it that way, but I wasn’t sure if the narrator was any good.

    Here’s my post for the week. Have a good reading week! 🙂

  7. I need to read Too Late! I think I may attempt the Throne of Glass series again soon and pick up my copy of Crown of Midnight. I don’t want to completely abandon the series yet until I at least give it another chance.
    Seveneves, yay! I wish I could make better progress in it. It’s so depressing that I’m not, especially because I really love it so far. Blehh. I’m only a little over 200 pages in.

  8. I also don’t usually go for the heavier sci-fi however I am currently reading The Martian by Andy Weir. While their is quite a lot of scientific detail, I am still really enjoying it for the character, drama and humour of it.
