WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Sam @Taking On A World Of Words, the rules are simple you just have to answer these three questions:
What are you currently reading?
What did you recently finish reading?
What do you think you’ll read next?
What am I currently reading?
Nothing as I just finished Phoenix Unbound and will pick my next read (see below)
What did I recently finished?
I DNF Timid by Devney Perry (unfortunately), read and reviewed Rhapsodic by Laura Thalassa. I read but still need to review Sea Prayer by Khaled Hosseini and today I just finished Phoenix Unbound by Grace Draven!!!! I have written the draft of the review and hope to post it on Friday!
What will I read next?
Well that’s where it gets interesting as not only was I approved for Fall by Kristen Callihan and will read it next week BUT I ‘ve been contacted on Twitter then via mail by Anonymous! No he or she is not a hacker but the author of The Silver Cage, a book that changed my view on LGBTQ stories and left me completely destroyed!
So much that I had to write an “Open Letter to Anonymous” as I could not interview him or her!!!
So when he or she messaged me to ask if I was interested in getting a copy of The Silver Cord, the second book but kind of a prequel , because he had loved my review ….I nearly cried! No I am not dramatic. You must know by now that I have a very passionate relationship with books and sometimes authors (no we don’t have THAT kind of relationship LOL) so I eat, drink, breathe these stories.
They are real to me and I guess to other bookworms.
So being contacted and offered this opportunity is a VERY BIG THING for me.
By the way, if you want to read my review of The Silver Cage, click on the graphic.
OK stopping here…
What are you reading? Do you have some fantastic book that I should know about?
Thanks for reading!
Sophie
That’s so exciting that the author contacted you. I hope you love the book!
I think I remember the “letter to Anonymous” thing! Wow, that is truly an amazing story 🙂 congratulations! You must be so excited to read it now 🙂
Oh yes Evelina and I’m already finished!!!
AHHHH, that is super exciting! It’s always nice to get a surprise contact of sorts from the author offering to give you a copy of their book to read and review. I hope you enjoy the book from Anonymous!
Oh I did Sophia! So much!
That’s awesome that you have such exciting books you’re lookg forward to to read next!
Yes and thank you Kristen!
Congratulations, Sophie! I hope you enjoy the book! I recently finished Not Even Bones
by Rebecca Schaeffer and I really loved it. I’m currently not reading anything but I’m still trying to figure out what to read next.
Happy reading! 🙂
Oh thank you so much Raven! My next one will be Fall by Kristen Callihan.
That’s so amazing that you were contacted by the author of the book that meant so much to you! What a gift that was. I hope this new one if just as meaningful for you!
Tanya it gave me the closure that I so needed!
Ahhh that’s so very exciting, I’m thrilled to hear you’re getting this awesome opportunity 😀
Happy reading, Sophie! 😀
Thank you so much Marie!
How exciting Sophie!!! I hope it lives up to your expectations!
It did Trisy!!!
How exciting for you that Anonymous is sending you the second book and he/she loved your review.
Oh yes Jovita!
These all sound so good, Sophie! I’ll be watching for your Sea Prayer review, and now I need to click over to Silver Cord!
Hahaha I hope you’ll enjoy Jennifer!
Congratulation for the opportunity to read and review the book you like!! That must be a wonderful feeling!!
Oh you have no idea Carolina!!!
I always have mixed feelings about DNF books. On one hand, I’m incredibly disappointed and on the other, I’m glad I didn’t have to continue to trudge through the book. Hope you pick up some amazing reads to make up for that DNF.
Yes that’s the same with me Alicia! Glad yet feeling somewhat guilty…
That is the coolest Twitter story ever. So happy for you, and also super jealous that you have the next VIP book. I can’t wait to read that.
Thank you Sam and yes it is!!!
So many good ones. Sorry about the DNF. I guess we have to come across one once in a while. Thought they haunt me. How awesome about Anonymous. I bet you’ll tear into that book ASAP! LOL And I get very emotional about books too:)
Hahaha Laura you were so right I dove right into the book while I had other ARCs to read LOL
