WWW Wednesdays #55

WWW Wednesdays is a bookish meme that was formerly hosted by MizB at A Daily Rhythm and revived by “fledgling writer” Sam A. Stevens on Taking on a World of Words. To participate, you just answer the Three W’s:

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

Currently Reading:

The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton (published February 8, 2018)

I started reading this novel by Stuart Turton and it drew me in right away. Looking forward to getting back to it once I finish work tonight.

The Way of the Bear by Anne Hillerman (published April 25, 2023)

I have been speeding through Anne Hillerman’s novel from last year at a furious pace and will most likely finish it in another night or two. I am still looking for a copy of her latest, Lost Birds, and might have to order it from a vendor in the States.

The Daily Stoic: 366 Meditations on Wisdom, Perseverance, and the Art of Living by Ryan Holiday (published October 18, 2016)

Recently Finished:

The Wild West: History, Myth and the Making of America by Frederick Nolan (published March 30, 2020)

Frederick Nolan’s brief history of the West left me wanting more. Thankfully, a great recommended reading section is included at the back of the book.

How the Penguins Saved Veronica by Hazel Prior (published March 5, 2020)

This was a fun read and I am already planning to read the second of the series, Call of the Penguins, within the next month or two.

Reading Next:

The Fourth of July and the Founding of America by Peter de Bolla (published May 26, 2009)

I enjoy learning different aspects of the founding of the United States. This looks like an interesting (and timely) read detailing the composition and approval of our Declaration of Independence, clearing up some of the myths surrounding this document.

The Secret River by Kate Grenville (published April 10, 2007)

As mentioned in yesterday’s Tuesday Intros, The Secret River is my choice for July’s Crossing Continents challenge of a book set in Australia.

Happy Reading!
