It’s Wednesday!!!! Which means it is time for WWW Wednesday. This has always been a helpful post for me because it keeps me organized but lately it has also become dangerous. As I check out all of the participants I keep adding to my to be read shelf. It’s brimming now! Still, it’s never a bad thing to have too many books. So, a big thanks to Sam at Taking on a World of Words for hosting – make sure and head over to her site to check out everyone’s WWW for today!
What Did I Just Finish Reading?
I had a big week (sort of). I finished A Problematic Paradox by Eliot Sappingfield and I have firmly placed Stiff by Mary Roach on the did not finish shelf. A Problematic Paradox is not a book that will get a review and Stiff, while well written and researched, has taken my brain to a worry-drenched state. This is the second time I have tried to read it and I think that the subject matter of cadavers just might not be for me. However, I am excited to read other books my Mary Roach because I do enjoy her style.
The book buying ban continues but the delightful OwlCrate came with From Twinkle with Love inside! Since I loved Sandhya Menon’s other book, When Dimple met Rishi, I wanted to read this book desperately. How happy was I when OwlCrate sent it to me?!? I consumed it in one sitting. Review coming soon!
L.H. Cosway & Penny Reid have written four books together and the most recent was just released this past week. The Varlet and the Voyeur is another contemporary romance and I have been looking forward to its release all summer. It did not disappoint! I also read this gem in one sitting.
What am I Currently Reading?
I just started Trollhunters yesterday and I have been sucked entirely into the story. I cannot wait to finish this post so I can get back to this book. I started Grit last week and I am almost halfway finished. It is a fascinating look at how passion and perseverance can change your life.
What Will I Read Next?
Ryan at Muse with Me has recently finished all three LOTR books and has inspired me to just get going on the series already. I hope to read Fellowship in June so that I can finish the trilogy by the end of summer. I also cannot wait read Circe.
Tell me, please!
How did your reading week go? What are your plans for next week?
Silver Button Books 
I want to read The Lord of The Rings as well but I guess it’s not yet time.😂 Although I’ve read The Hobbit already. Have a good reading week!

I read the Hobbit too and we so exhausted by the time they made it through the woods (stay on the damn path Hobbits!) I couldn’t go right into it. Hah! Thanks for visiting!

Excited to see you getting started on LOTR too! I hope you have enough time in June for Fellowship; it took me WAY longer than I thought it would, but that might have just been me.
Here’s my post 🙂

Thanks! There is a Netflix show that looks cute too and I am such a sucker for any book that has been adapted. I always have to know which is better!

Ooh, I still haven’t read When Dimple Met Rishi and I know that was loved so much. I’m going to have to look out for your review of From Twinkle With Love to see how that compares. 🙂

You have some great sounding books on your list. I tried reading ‘The Hobbit’ once and gave up after spending a week trying to read it and not getting very far. I presume I’d be the same with The Lord of the Rings books too.

The Hobbit was so groundbreaking when it was first published but it can have….moments….when you think the story won’t progress. I’m assuming the same for Lord of the Rings but I’ll let you know! Sam and Frodo – onward!
