Happy New Year! New Year, new opportunities to read. Thanks, as always, goes to Sam @ Taking on a World of Words for hosting the weekly meme that reminds me that it is okay to have a plan when reading. And the joy I feel when I can report that a book was finished feels even better on a Wednesday.
If you want to participate in WWW, feel free! The more the merrier (and the bigger my TBR becomes). All you have to do is answer the Three W’s:
- What did you recently finish?
- What are you currently reading?
- And, what do you think you’ll read next?
CURRENTLY READING
I think I am somewhere between 40-50% into The Divorce Colony. I am so intrigued! This is a great audiobook that segues off of the history of women’s rights from The Woman They Could Not Silence.
I have been loving the first V.I. Warshowski novel by Sara Paretsky. Somewhere between Christmas and New Years I remembered the excellent 1991 Katherine Turner movie and watched it. I picked up the first book in the series and am delighted to find out that V.I’s fictional apartment is mere blocks from where I live right now.
WHAT DID I RECENTLY FINISH?
I finished the absolute cutie of a mystery, Skeleton Paints a Picture by Leigh Perry. Such a cute story!
And somewhere between 9:00 and 11:00 pm on New Year’s Eve I finished War and Peace. Sigh. I am still processing the experience and waiting to meet with my reading buddy for a synopsis before I publish my thoughts but, if you are pondering reading this book – do it. It was a surprising wonder of a book.
WHAT WILL I READ NEXT?
I cannot wait to pick up more Nonfiction! Now that my obligations to the Cybils’ awards are complete, I can clear the deck and read whatever I want!
Tell me, please! What’s on your WWW list?

Totally understandable. All of last year I put a little shrug under my What’s Next section but I am hoping that a little planning will coordinate my reading better.

I read Anna Karenina by Tolstoy in December and I loved it. It definitely made me want to tackle War and Peace soon! It made me less afraid of its size too!

Anna Karenina is next on my list! War and Peace is beautiful – my only unsolicited advice is to get a copy with font that won’t drive you insane.
