WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words, where bloggers share the books that they’ve recently finished, what they are currently reading and what books they are planning to read next. Essentially you have to answer three questions (the Three Ws):

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

So, let’s get to it.

What are you currently reading?

Small Acts of Defiance by Michelle Wright (Trade Paperback)

I just started reading this really interesting and cool historical drama from Australian author Michelle Wright.  Small Acts of Defiance, which is Wright’s debut novel, is set in occupied Paris during World War II, and follows an Australian teenager as she rebels against the Nazi regime.  I am only about 50 pages in at this point, but so far this book is very compelling and moving.

The Coward by Stephen Aryan (Audiobook)

I am also currently enjoying the cool new fantasy novel from Stephen Aryan, The Coward.  The Coward, which starts a whole new series from Aryan, follows a former hero who is forced to journey back to the scene of his legendary fight against a monster and investigate a new emerging threat.  The only problem is that the hero’s entire legend is a lie, and he wants nothing to do with his former adventures.  This is a very clever and entertaining fantasy novel and I love the cool story premise behind it.  I am currently making some good progress with this novel and should hopefully finish it by next week.
