WWW Wednesday is a weekly book meme run by Sam over at Taking on a World of Words. Check out her post and others over on her blog!
The Three Ws are:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?
Goodness, I am running behind today.
Currently Reading
I didn’t make as much progress with Interesting Times by Terry Pratchett as I would have liked, but I’m right smack in the middle with hope that I can get it finished by next week. Since arriving in a strange land, Rincewind’s travails have amounted to a lot of running away and being put on a pedestal as something he’s not. It’s been amusing character stuff, but I’m waiting to see what it’s all building toward. I had higher hopes at the beginning, and so far I’m not sure if he’s just going to bumble his way to success or if he’s going to develop into a somewhat better version of himself. It has still been an enjoyable read, at any rate, Pratchett is nothing if not consistent, so I’m just waiting to see if this novel is among the higher pedigree.
Recently Finished
Over the weekend I read Fangs by Sarah Andersen, the author better known for her Sarah’s Scribbles webcomic. This book was another collection of strips, though of a different style and tone about a vampire and a werewolf in a relationship. I had read a lot of these online as they were coming out, but when I found out such a gorgeous hardcover was going to published, I decided to wait until I had it in my hands before I finished them. They’re cute, funny, and more adult that her usual strips, so much so that I was actually craving a plot line. There is a continuity, but story developments are typically contained within a strip. It’s a wholesome, macabre little collection worth checking out if it strikes a chord with you.
Reading Next
I’m still planning to read Thermopylae by Paul Cartledge next, it’s just a matter of finishing up Interesting Times. I’m also considering starting The Field Guide to Dumb Birds of North America by Matt Kracht as a little supplemental read, though that will invariably become something I have to power through so it’s not hanging around forever. It just looks cute and funny and I want to actually read it rather than occasionally peak at a page or two.
Until next week, thank you for reading! Feel free to share your own post down below.
Muse with Me 
The Field Guide to Dumb Birds of North America looks like a lot of fun. Here is my post https://ladybookdragon.com/2020/09/16/www-wednesday-16-09-2020/
Oooh, I see a Terry Pratchett book there! I haven’t read Rincewind’s series yet (though I own it), but I really need to. I keep saying that and I’m still so far behind on Pratchett’s novels. The mentions of Rincewind I’ve run across in the other novels make me curious (and I find his bumbling kind of adorable). Looking forward to what you think when you finish!
He’s not my favourite Discworld protagonist, but he got one of the biggest laughs out of me in the entire series so far in Sourcery. It’s most interesting to see a book featuring him again because the bulk of his books felt like they were written back when Pratchett was still figuring out the world and a now he’s back when the world has been made more solid, if that makes sense.
Going by just your description alone Fangs might be an auto-buy for me (and that gorgeous cover is certainly helping!) I think I considered buying my brother The Field Guide to Dumb Birds in North America as a Christmas present last year too. I might have to do it this year – it just sounds like his kind of humor! Happy reading!
Enjoy your reading!
