Originally featured at Should Be Reading… WWW WEDNESDAYS is all about answering the following three questions:
- What are you currently reading?
I’m about to finish Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling and I’ve started reading Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King as well. The third HP book is of course a reread, and I can tell you it’s great to step back into the wizard world and read about the adventures of the boy who lived! I’m loving every second of it. Stephen King is one of my preferred horror/thriller genre authors, and until now he delivers with Mr. Mercedes.
- What did you recently finish reading?
I finished The Dance Of The Spirits yesterday, and I have yet to write a full review. What I can say for now is that Catherine Aerie really managed to dazzle me with her story about lost love set during the Korean war. Its historical facts mixed with fiction form a perfect balance. It makes this novel a highly enjoyable read and just what I needed to take a break from all those YA dystopian novels I’ve been reading lately.
- What do you think you’ll read next?
Either Divine Fall by Kathryn Knight (ARC) or Black Roses by Jane Thynne depending on my mood. It’s either reading yet another YA fantasy story or an historical fiction novel set in Hitler’s Germany of the thirties… I’m placing my bets on Black Roses for now.
I always love re-reading an old favorite. Nothing like nostalgia while reading!

Totally! I normally don’t reread that many books just because there are so many great books I’ve never read still out there. But for HP I’m making an exception. 😉

I’m re-reading them in Spanish so I don’t feel like I could be reading something new. It is new, but still something familiar. If that makes sense.

I totally understand that, I’ve done the same myself with both the Dutch and Spanish version when I was younger. The Spanish translation was a fun read, although I prefer the original version,

Yeah, I do like reading YA dystopian novels, but I just feel I need a little break and read some different genres as well right now. Harry Potter is of course an exception to the temporary YA ban. 😉

Yes, it is definitely a big change! But since I already know exactly what is going to happen in the HP book, I count only Mr. Mercedes as a new read. 😉
