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?


Currently Reading

Hellboy The Dragon PoolAfter a lot of humming and hawing, I finally decided to start reading Hellboy: The Dragon Pool by Christopher Golden; though I made up my mind late last week, I didn’t manage to get a start on it until Monday night. There are some other series that I arguably should be getting to instead, but I realized that I haven’t read a Hellboy novel since summer 2021, so it’s nearly been 3 years. After this one, I will only have four more left to read, and this will be the last one published by Pocket Star Books before the publisher switches back to Dark Horse. I’m enjoying it well enough so far at nearly 60 pages in, though it’s doing its usual setup with the characters so the novel is accessible enough, so the story hasn’t quite gotten going yet. I’m most intrigued that Dr. Anastasia Bransfield is appearing again, an old flame of Hellboy’s that first appeared back in the first novel The Lost Army.


Recently Finished

Nothing this week.


Reading Next

Marvel 1602I’d still really like to read Marvel 1602 by Neil Gaiman soon, which I will likely get to before anything else. Reading another Hellboy novel finally has me thinking about other books related to this series that I really need to start reading; I’ve owned the first four omnibuses of the BPRD books for a number of years now, and I really ought to start reading that series finally. Part of me wants to start trying to read another book concurrently with The Dragon Pool, but I need to quell that a little so I can just get that book finished with faster.

Until next time, thank you for reading! Feel free to share your own post down below.
