WWW Wednesdays (18 Aug ’21)! What are you reading this week?

WWW Wednesday is a meme hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words. It’s open for anyone to join in and is a great way to share what you’ve been reading!

Current Reads

Orphans of the Storm by Celia Imrie

I just got approved to read this book from NetGalley yesterday and I couldn’t resist picking it up straight away. It’s a novel about the Titanic and it sounds really engrossing and interesting.

Recent Reads

I’ve not been reading much recently, hence why I haven’t posted a WWW for a couple of weeks but these are the five books I’ve finished since my last post.

All For You by Louise Jensen

This was another really good, fast-paced and gripping thriller by Louise Jensen. It captured my attention at a time when I’ve been struggling to read.

Freckles by Cecelia Ahern

I did struggle to get into this novel but once I did I found it hard to put down. It follows Freckles as she tries to navigate her way through life and to work out which people are the most important and influential to her.

The Man Who Died Twice by Richard Osman

I really enjoyed this sequel to The Thursday Murder Club, it was gripping and fun as well as being an intriguing mystery.

The Long Long Afternoon by Inga Vesper

I bought this ebook a while ago and picked it up recently and I was engrossed from start to finish. It follows the mystery of a suburban housewife who suddenly disappears one day.

The Sleeping Beauties by Suzanne O’Sullivan

This is a fascinating non-fiction book looking at mysterious illnesses around the world that all seem to have something in common. It explores the different terminology around what is now called Functional Neurological Disorder and it’s very interesting and thought-provoking.

What I Might Read Next

Real Men Knit by Kwana Jackson

We Are Not Like Them by Christine Pride

I’m still not reading very much at the moment but these two books are the next ones on my NetGalley shelf so I’m hoping to get to them over the coming week.

  1. Are you OK? I loved Real Men Knit as you might recall, so I hope you’re enjoying that. I recently won the new Richard Osman from NetGalley, so I picked up The Thursday Murder Club and it’s coming up soon as my husband wants to read it too and is about to finish his latest audio book so it’s almost time. I just hope it’s not too explicit with the murder scenes. I’ve been reading Angela Thirkell’s The Headmistress, 18 of my 20 books of summer, and also reading one on varieties of English for a Shiny New Books review, and enjoyed The Reading List on NetGalley although it had more of an emotional punch than I was prepared for!
