The three Ws are:

What are you currently reading?

“On our wedding night,” she said, “I will cut out your tongue and swallow it. Then both tongues that spoke our marriage vows will belong to me, and I will be wed only to myself. You will most likely choke to death on your own blood, which will be unfortunate, but I will be both husband and wife and therefore not a widow to be pitied.”

And I Darken by Kiersten White. I keep trying to read this one but I’m only on page 125…for the last week and a half. It has such wonderful reviews and everything makes it sound like an awesome book. I’m attributing my slow reading and disinterest to my recent horrible reading slump. I’ll get there, though.

“Do not listen to the mad ramblings of a broken man. He means none of what he says and only half of what he doesn’t.”

Kingdom Series Collection by Marie Hall. Certainly not my usual type of book but I wanted something quick, simple, and mindless and this fills the bill. This book contains three different stories featuring The Mad Hatter, a character meant to represent a non-asshole Gaston, and the Big Bad Wolf. The three have a fairy god mother and she has to find a perfect romantic match for each in order to save their lives. Great literature this isn’t but I’ve always had a soft spot for the crazy Hatter so why not…

What did you recently finish reading?

I have a big ole’ goose egg here this week. The last thing I “finished” was The Song of Achilles two weeks ago. Yikes! I usually get through at least a book and a half each week but I have just haven’t had the yearn to read. It’s getting depressing. Okay, it is far passed depressing. Help me.

What do you think you’ll read next?

“I will die. You will die. We will all die and the universe will carry on without care. All that we have is that shout into the wind – how we live. How we go. And how we stand before we fall.”

Golden Son by Pierce Brown. I read Red Rising a few months ago and absolutely loved it. When I spotted this on a library shelf this week I had to grab it. Brown’s writing is incredible and I hope Golden Son lives up to the standard he set with the previous book. I’m almost afraid to start it, to be honest. With my current reading mood I don’t want to ruin what will probably be a fantastic story. Hm. Hopefully soon.

This reading slump is starting to tick me off, ya’ll. I love to read. I know I love to read. Why can’t I just enjoy it again?! To say that I’m frustrated would be an understatement. Maybe next week…
