Meme: What I'm Reading

[escritoireazul]

I'm really enjoying everyone's What I'm Reading Wednesday posts, so I thought I'd start trying to do it too (at least sporadically, I'm not great at regular weekly posting).

What I Just Finished Reading

I finished this a couple days ago, Nobody by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. I really love Barnes' Raised by Wolves and The Squad series(es), and enjoyed her last standalone. This one felt really slow to me, and the back and forth point of views kept throwing me out of the story at first, but eventually I got sucked in, and the world building was really, really interesting.

What I'm Reading

I just started (again, I read at least the first chapter awhile ago) Soulless by Gail Carriger. das_hydra has recced it to me more than once, and I'm more or less enjoying it, though I'm not much of a fan of stories set in Victorian London. (Except I loved studying Victorian lit back when I did my undergrad, so -- I don't know, I'm complicated?) But I'm really enjoying the werewolf and vampire politics and world building.

What I'm Reading Next

I ... have no idea. When We Wake by Karen Healey comes out in North America (it's already out in NZ/AUS, as far as I know), and I'm super excited to read the published version. However, I'll need something new to read before that, and I have no idea what will be next. I have boxes and boxes of books to unpack still, and I know I have unread books in there, but I want something in particular, I'm just not sure what. (Well, awesome werewolf stories, always. And fantastic teen supernatural adventures.)

Recs?

One of my groups on Ravelry does read-a-longs. And Soulless is this month's book.

When worlds collide. :)

Both Soulless and Nobody are on my TBR list. I've heard good things about them.
