WWW Wednesday – 25th December 2019 – Ivys Well Used Library Card

Merry Christmas! or Happy Holiday to those who done do Christmas – I totally get you… this is stressful

Family time is stealing my reading time… I’m getting nervous about finishing a certain massive book I’m only halfway through with before the end of the year…. 😬

Welcome to my WWW Wednesday post, originally hosted by Taking in a World of Words. All I need to do is answer the three questions below which all start with a W.

The three W’s are

What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll be reading next?

What I’m currently reading?

Jotnens Hjemkomst by Anders Bull-Hansen – I really want to finish this book for several reasons. I don’t like the writing style. It’s very telling instead of showing. It’s misogynistic and therefore pisses me off. But the story is partly interesting. And I borrowed it from my sister under her recommendation so I feel I have to at least finish it.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen narrated by Rosamund Pike – I love the voice of Rosamund Pike and she does an excellent job narration this book.

The Dragon Republic by R. F. Kuang – the squeal to The Poppy War. I’m 81% through and loving it 😁

The Gendered Brain by Gina Rippon – I’m about 2/3 through but it’s not an easy read. There are a lot of facts and information but it’s still super interesting.

Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell – It’s a surprisingly easy and entertaining read. But it’s over 1000 pages so I hope to finish it around Christmas… Progress so far: started on 2nd September, 4th Sep on 3% (iBook page 118/4503), 11th September on 5% (iBook page 243/4503), 18th September on 14% (iBook page 614/4503) – Well, hello Rhett…!. 25th September on 16% (iBook page 718/4503), 9th October on 27% (iBook page 1226/4503) – the long gazes #swoon, 16th October on 30% (iBook page 1350/4503), 23rd October 32% (iBook page 1476/4503) – Mistress!? how rude, 30th October – No progress, 6th November – 36% (iBook page 1635/4503), 20th November – 39% (1752/4503), 27th November – 43% (1942/4503). Scarlet has grown a spine over night, and no Rhett, 4th December – 47% (2104/4503), 11th December – 50% !!!
