Welcome to WWW Wednesday which is currently being hosted by Sam @ Taking On A World of Words. It’s really just a place to do little update on what all you’ve been reading lately. Anyone is welcome to join, just leave a link to your post in the comments and be sure to give the appropriate credit to Sam!
The Three W’s are:
- What are you currently reading?
- What did you recently finish reading?
- What do you think you’ll read next?
What are you currently reading?
- Surprise, Kill, Vanish by Annie Jacobsen – physical book
- The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon- physical book
- Golden Son (Red Rising, #1) by Pierce Brown – audiobook, reread
- Middlemarch by George Eliot – physical book
I haven’t read any of Middlemarch or Surprise, Kill, Vanish this week but I plan to do nothing but read this weekend so that should help catch me back up on those two. I have made it over the halfway point through Golden Son and if I can turn off my podcasts for long enough, I should be able to finish it before the end of the week. I’ve also made some more progress in The Priory of the Orange Tree. This book is actually moving slower than I was expecting it to, and hasn’t quite consumed all of my attention like I thought it would originally. I do expect it to start picking up more the further I get into it. It’s just so dang huge!
What did you recently finish reading?
Nothing this week!

- City of Lies (Poison Wars, #1) – physical book

Yeaaaaah, Priory is slow. I’ve given up on it for now and am going to try again in a few months. Hoping to finish it before the end of the year, anyway. I haven’t done WWW this week, but here’s my TTT on top 10 fictional settings I’d like to see more of if you’re interested! 🙂

Okay, I’m glad someone else thinks it’s slow too! I understand that the world-building and multiple POVs need more time to develop, but I really hope it’ll pick up soon. Fingers crossed at least!

Oh yeah, for sure. I do like the world-building and find it relatively easy to follow? But yeah I… just sort of wandered off. I def hope to finish it before the years’ end though, as I heard her speak about it and have a personalised signed copy so I’m like… obligated.

Yeah, I understand that. I’m going to try and power through the rest of it this weekend. I love Samantha Shannon, and I think I’m just going through a little bit of a fantasy slump right now. I’m supposed to be doing an adult fantasy readathon this month, but it’s becoming obvious that I might need to try something else instead.
