WWW Wednesday – 8 November 2023

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:

Mr Einstein’s Secretary by Matthew Reilly (Trade Paperback)

Mr Einstein's Secretary Cover

I started the compelling historical novel, Mr Einstein’s Secretary this week and boy am I loving it.  The latest book from acclaimed Australian author Matthew Reilly, Mr Einstein’s Secretary follows a young girl who lives through terrible times and becomes a spy, a traitor and the secretary to Einstein.  I am about 100 pages in at the moment and cannot wait to see how this awesome novel turns out.

Warhammer 40,000: Creed: Ashes of Cadia by Jude Reid (Audiobook)

Creed - Ashes of Cadia Cover 2

I am still enjoying the latest Warhammer 40,000 novels, Creed: Ashes of Cadia by Jude Reid this week.  I had hoped to have finished this audiobook by now, but I haven’t had as much listening time as I would have wanted. Despite that, Ashes of Cadia is proving to be an excellent read and I love the complex and action-packed story it contains as the daughter of a legendary war hero as she journeys back to the site of her father’s greatest failure, the fall of Cadia.  I should finish this off in the next day or two and I cannot wait to see how it ends.

Resurrection Walk by Michael Connelly (Trade Paperback)

Resurrection Walk Cover

I had a wonderful time finishing off the excellent new Michael Connelly novel, Resurrection Walk this week. A Lincoln Lawyer novel that also features Connelly’s main protagonist Harry Bosch, Resurrection Walk was an exception book that sees the protagonists try to prove the innocence of several convicted felons.  One of Connelly’s best recent books, I loved Resurrection Walk and I am hoping to get a review up for it soon.

What do you think you’ll read next?

Zero Days Since Last Incident by JE Rowney

Zero Days Since Last Incident Cover

I am hoping to quickly read the entertaining sounding thriller, Zero Days Since Last Incident in the next week.  Following several ambitious office workers who get stuck on an island with murderous results, Zero Days Since Last Incident sounds pretty damn awesome and I can’t wait to check it out.

Murtagh by Christopher Paolini

Murtagh Cover

I am also hoping to dive into the new Christopher Paolini novel, Murtagh, in the next few days.  The long-awaited sequel to his iconic Inheritance Cycle (a series I have a lot of love for), Murtagh is one of my most anticipated books for the second half of 2023 and I cannot wait to see how Paolini expands his awesome fantasy series.
