WWW Wednesdays
WWW Wednesdays is a meme hosted by MizB at Should Be Reading. What you do is answer the following three questions:
What are you currently reading?
I just started George R. R. Martin's A Storm of Swords, the third in his series, and at 90 pages in everything is still just being set-up. Clearly these characters would benefit from modern communications technology, however. They make too many decisions based on outdated information. Ah, old world problems...
What did you recently finish reading?
I most recently finished my giveaway ARC copy of The Angels' Share by Rayme Waters, which comes out this month. Waters has a strong writing style, but I found the plot kind of floundered as I ventured deeper into the novel. I have a review posted here.
*Also, I have a giveaway for 3 copies of the novel. Anyone interested should click on this Giveaway Link.*
What do you think you'll read next?
I'm going to take a brief break from A Storm of Swords and read Christopher Lee's novella, The Archaeologists. I'll probably have a review by the end of the week as I've heard it's a very brief read.

Yeah, The Archaeologists is really quick, but it is a pretty good read.

I went through a phase growing up when I wanted to be an archaeologist. Its sad that the plot of Angel's Share didn't love up but at least the writing was good.
ReplyDeleteMy WWW Wednesday is here.
Storm of Swords gets sooooooo much better (or is it emotionally painful) as the book goes on, lol! That book gave me so many dreams and left me shocked towards the end. I thought I dropped enough hints around my house of how much I wanted this series for my birthday, but they seemed to have gone on deaf ears :/ ah well. Happy Reading!
ReplyDeleteReading the review for The Angels' Share does sound like too much is going on.
ReplyDeleteThe Archaeologists. Hmmmm...I may have to check that one out.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to start the Game of Thrones series but I keep getting caught up in the other books I get.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my WWW Wednesday =)
I've heard really good things about the Game of Thrones series, but it's definitely not one that has called to me otherwise. I won't say never though. I do like to see what all the fuss is about when a book or series is so popular.
ReplyDeleteHave not gotten into Martin's books but I see everyone reading them. Not sure they're for me. Maybe someday. The Angel's Share sounds interesting, even with the issues you had with it, so thanks for the giveaway. Thanks for stopping by The Book Bag.
