Today I’m participating in Sam’s WWW Wednesdays. Here’s how it works:
The Three Ws are:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next, and/or what are you eagerly awaiting?
Currently Reading:
I am delighted with my current read, Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk, by Kathleen Rooney, “Extraordinary…hilarious…Elegantly written, Rooney creates a glorious paean to a distant literary life and time—and an unabashed celebration of human connections that bridge past and future.”
—Publishers Weekly (starred and boxed)

JUST FINISHED:
I’ve finished two books so far this week: The Red Car, by Marcy Dermansky (click title for review);
***
And…The Dry, (click for review), by Jane Harper;
***
EAGERLY ANTICIPATING THESE READS:
(I downloaded these books today, and hope to read them soon).
Behind Her Eyes, by Sarah Pinborough
In Behind Her Eyes, Sarah Pinborough has written a novel that takes the modern day love triangle and not only turns it on its head, but completely reinvents it in a way that will leave readers reeling.
Right Behind You, by Lisa Gardner
Lisa Gardner’s next thriller following her runaway New York Times bestseller Find Her takes her wildly popular brand of suspense to new heights.

What does your week look like so far?

I read a brilliant review for Lilian Boxfish takes a Walk last week and would like to read this one too – good to see your ‘Behind’ books are ready for reading now – enjoy!

Thanks for visiting, Marina, and my stats each month show a lot of books from that genre. Lillian Boxfish is another kind of read that I enjoy: a book about women who take their own unique path, and thrive doing it.

That’s what makes it so tempting, I suppose!

I’ve got BEHIND CLOSED EYES on audio and look forward to starting it today. I’ve really enjoyed other books by Lisa Gardner. Will get to this new one eventually, I’m sure.

It’s funny about the titles that seem to trend with similar words (Behind Her Eyes, Right Behind You, Don’t Look Behind You). Last year it was “girls” in the titles.
Thanks for stopping by, Kay, and enjoy!

Thanks for visiting, Faith…I am a big fan of Lisa Gardner’s books, and actually read an excerpt from Right Behind You at the end of a novella called The 4th Man.
Enjoy your reading….
