WWW Wednesday's #7

I haven't participated in this meme for a while (two months to be exact!) so I thought I'd better start up again! This weekly meme is hosted by MizB over @Should Be Reading and to join in all you have to do is answer the three following questions: 
  • What are you currently reading?
  • What did you recently finish reading?
  • What do you think you'll read next?

So here are my answers for this week:
 

  • What are you currently reading?
I'm reading the first book in a Greek mythology set that I bought last year whilst on holiday in Greece. I couldn't resist buying the whole set even if it did cost me around 60 euros! They're a lovely little set of books all centred around Greek myths, a subject that I LOVE so really looking forward to getting through this set. Also I'm off to Greece in a week so I'm swotting slightly just incase my boyfriend and I go to a quiz out there! See a photo of the books here in a post of mine.


  • What did you recently finish reading?
Yesterday I finished Graceling and I'm busy trying to write a review for it as I did enjoy it but found some parts not so good. Since my last WWW Wednesday's post I have finished all of the Hunger Games trilogy; I loved the first and second books but was really disappointed by the third and really wish I hadn't read it and just made up my own ending! I've also read Nicholas Sparks' novel The Lucky One and Michelle Moran's historical fiction novel The Heretic Queen and loved them both. A little behind with the reviews for all of these books though but will hopefully get there in time!

  • What do you think you'll read next?
Honestly? I have no idea. Well, I want to get through all of the Greek mythology books that I mentioned above or atleast a few of them before holiday. I've added a ton of books to my kindle, a few from amazon, netgalley and a few review books so I might read one of those if it takes my fancy. But my paperback choice for holiday I think will be Elizabeth I by Margaret George. I love love love her historical fiction books. But who knows I might pick up a book in the airport or on holiday and read that!

  9. What a fun mix of books you've got going on. I really love Greek Mythology so think those books sound good.

    I also enjoyed Graceling but liked Fire more. I listened to Fire on audio and just fell in love with it. I hope to get to Bitterblue soon.

    My WWW Wednesday is here.
