What Are You Currently Reading?
Physical Book…
Gracie’s Song by Michelle Schlicher
This is my first author-requested book review and I’m so thankful for Michelle choosing me to read her new book. I’m about 100 pages into so far and I’m really enjoying it. It’s a story about Gracie, a small town girl, who up and leaves the night after graduation without any explanation and then has to return 10 years later and confront everyone that she left behind. Since I grew up in a really small town, I am totally connecting with Gracie. I can’t wait to see how this one ends!
NetGalley ARC…
The Lie Tree by Francis Hardinge
Okay, I’ve been making pretty slow progress with this book but it’s mostly because I hate reading books on my phone. I need to switch my NetGalley over to my iPad, like pronto. However, I’m amping it up a bit and read quite a bit last night. This book is very unique and I’m dying to know what’s going to happen next!
What did you recently finish reading?
This book was a pretty interesting ride from start to finish. I really enjoyed getting a glimpse into life during the Vietnam War, which isn’t something that normally gets written about. I really liked this book and I think it’s actually going to be the first in a series, which I’m insanely glad about because that ending left me a bit upset. I need answers!!!! You can find my full review HERE.
I finished this book the night before last. I think I ended up ugly crying for about 30 minutes after I finished it. I knew it was coming and it still got to me, dammit. I’ll have a full review up for this one at some point today. I’m still not quite sure how I feel about it so it’ll be an interesting post to write.
What do you think you’ll read next?
- Nora & Kettle by Lauren Nicolle Taylor (NetGalley ARC)
- The Atomic Weight of Love by Elizabeth J. Church (NetGalley ARC)
- A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic, #1) by V.E. Schwab
- A Gathering of Shadows (Shades of Magic, #2) by V.E. Schwab
- Trutchwitch (The Witchlands, #1) by Susan Dennard
- The Girls by Emma Cline (NetGalley ARC)
- Star Wars: The Force Awakens by Alan Dean Foster
ADSOM and AGOS will certainly be my next two physical book reads, while The Girls will be my next ARC. I have to read totally different genres when I’m reading multiple books at once or I have a hard time focusing on each book separately.
So, what are your WWW Wednesdays looking like? See a book from mine that you’ve read, want to read, or just sounds supremely lame? Lemme know!
I cried a lot after finished Me Before You as well, it’s one of only a few books that have reduced me to that state!
Hope you enjoy all your books this week.

I didn’t cry when I read Me Before You but only because I’d prepared myself for the sad ending. I imagine the movie will be a real tear-jerker too.
I hope you enjoy ADSOM and AGOS. They’re terrific!

Gracie’s Song sounds very interesting. I’m adding it to my TBR 🙂

I couldn’t read on anything that’s as small as my phone. I don’t know how some people do! The Life Tree’s cover is a little different. Sounds good! Happy reading.
