WWW Wednesday - 8th Oct

The book meme WWW Wednesdays is hosted by Should Be Reading.

The aim of WWW Wednesday is to answer the following three questions…
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?

What are you currently reading?
I just started reading Horns by Joe Hill last week and I have about 100 pages left. It is really good and it's a great book for a group read. I'm enjoying the discussion almost as much as the book. What I love about Joe Hill and Stephen King is that they tip their hats to each other and to other books they have read. When you've read a few of their books, you start to notice them and when I do, I get all excited because I'm in out and I know what they are talking about.

I am also listening to Case Histories by Kate Atkinson. I was enjoying it at first but it seems to have slowed down midway through the book. I'm hoping it will pick up soon as the cases start to be solved. I do like Atkinson's writing style though.

What did you recently finish reading?
I haven't finished anything this week.

What do you think you’ll read next?
Well, my buddy read for A Discovery of Witches has been moved to next month now so I've decided to read Ghost Story by Peter Straub instead. I've not read any books by Straub before.

Have you read any of these? And what did you think?

    I haven't read any of Peter Straub's books but I've just read the blurb on Ghost Story and it sounds like it'll be a good read.

    Thanks for sharing. I never considered listening to a book like Case Histories; I usually reserve audio for long/epic fantasies. I liked Discovery of Witches and hope you do too, whenever you get to it. ;)

    Have you read Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill? That's my favourite of his books I've read so far. I still have NOS4A2 left to read.
