WWW WEDNESDAYS is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @ Taking On A World Of Words and is all about answering the three questions below.

  • WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY READING?

It took me a little while to pick up Tell The Wolves I’m Home by Carol Rifka Brunt and keep reading because I wasn’t in the mood… But I’m finally making good progress and will probably finish it today. Afterwards, I’m going to dive straight in one of my most anticipated releases Wolfhunter River by Rachel Caine as my first book of the O.W.L.s readathon.

WHAT DID YOU RECENTLY FINISH READING?

1. The Dry by Jane Harper (4,5/5 stars) REVIEW 28/03
I’m glad I finally picked up my copy of The Dry, because I’ve become an instant Jane Harper fan. What a fantastic read! The setting, the writing style, the plot and character development: I found each element to be extremely well executed and I can see why this debut has received so much love. This is one of those stories you will want to clear your schedule for… Once you have turned the first few pages, you will find yourself stuck in Kiewarra until you discover what really happened to Luke and his family and if it has to do with something that happened long ago.

2. Harry Potter Y El Cáliz De Fuego by J.K. Rowling (4,5/5 stars) NO REVIEW 
No review this time as this is a reread… But of course it’s easy to say the Harry Potter series is one of my all time favorites and it’s always great revisiting the world. Book number four is among my favorites of the series!

3. I Know You by Erik Therme (3/5 stars) REVIEW 
I Know You is a story with an interesting premise and mix of different elements. I liked how the focus of this story wasn’t just on the kidnapping case, but also on the family drama and flawed characters in general. It is without doubt a superfast read perfect for when you need a little break from life and forget about your own problems. I personally ended up having mixed thoughts, mostly related to the credibility and lack of dept in and connection to the characters… But there is no doubt the story was still entertaining enough.

4. Every Exquisite Thing by Matthew Quick (3/5 stars) REVIEW 02/04
While I can say this was a superfast read, the tone and writing style of Every Exquisite Thing really started to get on my nerves and made the reading experience less enjoyable than expected. I also had problems with the main characters… While I like that they are flawed and unique and especially Nanette evolves over time as the story progresses, there was also something about them that really annoyed me and I wasn’t able to connect to them in general. I did love the fact that this story is build around a book called The Bubblegum Reaper, where we see both the influence of the writing on its reader and learn more about the author himself.

5. We Are Of Dust by Clare Coombes (4/5 stars) REVIEW 30/03
I guess you might know by now I have a weak spot for WWII historical fiction… So as soon as I read the blurb, I knew I HAD to accept this request to read We Are Of Dust. This is without doubt both a solid and heartbreaking story based on true events. It shows that the author has investigated the details painstakingly and I liked how we see multiple sides of the war with the help of the different characters. This is actually the first book of a series (something I didn’t know), and the ending will leave you wanting for more… But I guess that is always a good sign.

  • WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’LL READ NEXT?

I was going to wait a little while longer, but I just couldn’t resist after seeing one raving review after the other so I’m picking up Daisy Jones And The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid next. I’m also thinking about picking up Fruit Of The Drunken Tree by Ingrid Rojas Contreras as I’ve been meaning to read it for a while now. Depending on if it’s April already, I’ll start with the O.W.L.s readathon and pick up Release by Patrick Ness. My TBR jar pick is Sweetheart by Chelsea Cain
