Happy Wednesday!
WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words in which you answer three simple questions:
- What are you currently reading?
- What did you recently finish reading?
- What do you think you’ll read next?
My progress of reading has been quite good lately so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to write this post. The beginning of 2019 is a huge contrast from last year for me in regards to reading: I’m reading much more, and more consistently as well and I’m so happy about it! The past few days might have been a bit slow because I had long days at university, but I still managed to read which I’m glad for.
- What I’m currently reading: Windwitch by Susan Dennard
Having read Truthwitch at the beginning of the year and having absolutely loved it, I knew I had to read Windwitch soon. And with Bloodwitch, the new installment in the series coming out in six days, it seemed like the perfect time to go back into the Witchlands universe. So far, I’m really liking it, I’m 30% in and the action is picking up quite a bit. I’m still amazed at Susan Dennard’s talent, her writing is vivid and addicting, the world is still expanding, and I can’t wait to see what I discover reading this book.
- What I recently finished: The Young Elites trilogy by Marie Lu
As you can tell from my previous post, talking about how much I love Marie Lu’s work, I really loved this trilogy. It was a very intense read, emotionally heavy and dark, and I loved every single page of it. I was warned the ending would probably make me cry, and it did, I was heartbroken and sobbing when I got to the acknowledgments. I’m so glad I decided to pick it up this year.
- What I might read next:
- Sightwitch by Susan Dennard
- Legend by Marie Lu
- City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
I never plan a very strict TBR, I mostly choose the book I’m most in the mood for at the time. But I have a feeling it will be between these three books when I do finish Windwitch. Sightwitch is an obvious one as it is the novella that came out after Windwitch, and that the author recommends reading before Bloodwitch. Legend being the only Marie Lu series I haven’t read yet, it is also a good choice simply because after reading two of her series, I want to read ALL OF THEM. And in January, I started my reread of The Shadowhunter Chronicles with The Infernal Devices and I’d love to start my reread of The Mortal Instruments this month. As you can tell, I can be pretty indecisive when it comes to deciding what I’ll read next. I never want to read a book I’m not in the mood for, because then I wouldn’t do it justice.
What are you currently reading, or planning to read? Any recommendations from your recent reads that you particularly loved?
Until next time,
Noémie
Good luck choosing your next read! They’re all equally fabulous options!

I haven’t read all of Marie Lu’s books, but it is one of my goals to do so, she is such an amazing writer! I only read the first book in the young elites series, I can’t wait to go on with it, SO happy you enjoyed it so much and that the ending just had such an impact on you. I’ve heard that some people were disappointed by it, I’m so happy that was not the case for you 😀 I have read the first book in the Legend series and I really liked it, I hope you will, too!
Happy reading! ❤ ❤
