WWW Wednesday – 26 June 2024

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:

The Mercy Chair by M. W. Craven (ebook)

The Mercy Chair Cover

I started reading the compelling murder mystery The Mercy Chair by M. W. Craven this week.  A unique and dark mystery that sees Craven’s long-running protagonist and his unusual partner investigating a religiously motivated killing.  I have made a bit of progress on The Mercy Chair, and I am getting really drawn into the compelling narrative, especially the complex and intriguing mystery.  I am hoping to knock off a fair bit of The Mercy Chair in the next day or two and I am very curious to see how it all comes together.

Goodbye Girl by James Grippando (Audiobook)

Goodbye Girl Cover

I finally started listening to the cool legal thriller, Goodbye Girl by James Grippando this week, which has been on my to-read list for a while now.  The latest book in Grippando’s Jack Swyteck series, Goodbye Girl features a curious case of deceit, murder and online pirating that I am finding very addictive.  I am making very quick progress on this book, and I cannot wait to see how Goodbye Girl continues.

What did you recently finish reading?

You Like It Darker by Stephen King (Trade Paperback)

You Like It Darker Cover

I finished off the new Stephen King book, You Like It Darker, this week and it ended up being particularly epic.  Featuring 12 great short stories, You Like It Darker was an exceptional book, and I honestly got so drawn in to some of King’s unique and varied narratives.

Star Trek: Pliable Truths by Dayton Ward (Audiobook)

Star Trek - Pliable Truths Cover

An excellent Star Trek novel that served as a very entertaining bridge between The Next Generation and Deep Space Nine television series.  This was an outstanding listen, and I’m really glad I decided to check it out. 

Amazon

What do you think you’ll read next?

NecroTek by Jonathan Maberry (Audiobook)

Necrotek Cover

If I manage to get through Goodbye Girl this week I’ll probably start listening to NecroTek by Jonathan Maberry next.  A dark science fiction novel with heavy Lovecraftian vibes, NecroTek sounds very awesome, and I have been hoping to read this book all year.  This should be a pretty epic release from Maberry, and I look forward to checking it out.

That’s it for this week, check back in next Wednesday to see what progress I’ve made on my reading and what books I’ll be looking at next.
