The WWW Wednesday meme is currently hosted by Sam @ Taking on a World of Words and is a great way to do a weekly update on what you’ve been reading and what you have planned.
To take part all you have to do is answer the following three questions:
- What are you currently reading?
- What did you recently finish reading?
- What do you think you’ll read next?
Currently Reading
I started The Bed and Breakfast on the Beach by Kitty French on Friday and I suspect I will probably finish it today. It’s a romantic comedy about three thirty something year old women who, needing a change, buy a Bed and Breakfast on a secluded Greek Island. I received this from NetGalley and it’s proving to be perfect summer reading. Definitely one for the beach or beside the pool.
Not much progress with Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare or Attack of the 50ft. Women by Catherine Mayer. I’m not very good at juggling a few books at the same time so my focus has been on my ebooks.
Recently Finished
Another relatively slow reading week for me with only two books finished. The first of these was thriller Stillhouse Lake by Rachel Caine which I received free through Kindle First. It’s about a woman who’s forced to go into hiding with her children after she discovers her husband of many years was actually a serial killer.
I really, really liked this book. It has the feel of quite a traditional who dunnit but brought right up to date with internet trolls, social media etc. It definitely kept me guessing (which is rare with the number of murder mysteries I’ve read/watched) and I really liked main character Gwen/Gina which I did not expect. You can read my review here.
The second book finished this week was romance The Foxe and the Hound by R.S. Grey. Grey’s books are a fairly recent discovery for me but they are fast becoming my go to when I’m looking for something light, funny and steamy to get me out of a reading funk. This one is possibly my favourite so far. A clumsy mess of a heroine with a giant out of control puppy and an attractive vet make it my perfect read. I think I read the whole thing with a smile on my face.
Reading Next
Not sure what I’m in the mood for next but given my recent light and fluffy spree I think it’ll be something a bit more serious. Possibly one of the following.
Have you read any of the books above or have any other book you’d recommend? Leave comments and links below and I’ll respond when I can.
Happy Wednesday Everyone!!!
A Bookish Life 
I like the sound of The Bed and Breakfast on the Beach, it’s perfect for these scorching days! 🙂 Stillhouse Lake sounds so good! I’m dying to read Yesterday! 🙂 Happy reading!

I’m in Scotland so scorching days are few and far between 😂 but B&B on the Beach definitely put me in the holiday mood.
Yesterday is a little down my list but I have sneakily read a few pages and could easily get hooked.

Ooh, I really love the sound of Stillhouse Lake! And I’ve enjoyed Rachel Caine’s YA books so I really want to check that one out now.
Here’s my WWW for this week.

I found her YA series started well but the later in the series I got the less I loved. I did really like Stillhouse Lake, actually a lot more than I thought I would.

I think it was a read now on NetGalley if you’re interested. I have a weird obsession with books where amnesia is part of the plot.

It’s a really addictive read so I probably wouldn’t plan on doing anything else once you start it 😀

I’m not very good at juggling books either! Owning a B&B on a Greek island is my idea of paradise. So I might have to pick up Kat French’s book when it comes out! I haven’t picked up any light summer reads yet, but I’m starting to feel like it!

It actually sounds like my idea of hell. Would love to live on a Greek Island but would rather avoid all of the cooking and cleaning 😉
It is a really nice summery read.

Ahaha, yes it would be much nicer to live on a Greek Island without having to do the cooking and cleaning!
