I came across this fun meme at DreamzandClouds’ blog, and was delighted to discover that it was a Wednesday today! It’s a weekly thing hosted at ‘ShouldbeReading‘.
All you need to do to play along is, answer these questions
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?
Easy enough, I thought. Nothing, after all, is more fun than talking about books.
• What are you currently reading?
I’m reading Someone Like You by Roald Dahl. I think I’ve mentioned how much I’ve loved Roald Dahl’s books for children. Not just me, my books mad daughter as well. I miss those days when I used to read to her, and especially Roald Dahl books. They were just delicious. His wicked sense of humour is just the sort that I like. Someone Like You is a bunch of short stories with a very interesting twist at the very end. Very different from his books for children, and yet very delicious reads for grown ups. I’m loving it so far.
• What did you recently finish reading?
I finished reading, ‘Please Don’t Cry by Jane Plume’, the other day. I’ve reviewed it here.
• What do you think you’ll read next?
I think I will be picking up ‘And The Mountains Echoed ‘by Khaled Hosseini unless a more appealing book turns up. I’ve always loved Hossieni’s writing, and have been waiting for a while for this one. For some reason, I thought I had read a bad review of it, but was delighted to hear that Deeps loved it, so I can now pick it up without worries 🙂
That’s it from me. It is easy enough to do! So what have you been reading?
Still have to put And The Mountains Echoed on my list, just not sure when I’ll fit it in! hope you enjoy. Here’s my link http://wp.me/p32hC2-Eg

It has been ages since I did a tag, too! 🙂
This reminds me – I haven’t read any adult fiction by Roald Dahl at all. I absolutely love his stories for children, too. I have a feeling, though, that his adult books will not have the same effect on me. 😦 I should try them out before judging, I know. 🙂
I adored Khaled Hosseini’s first two books, too. And The Mountains Echoed has been on my to-read list since forever. I should pick it up soon.
I just finished reading Mostly Madly Mayil – LOVED it! 🙂 Presently reading 97 Orchard and The Twentieth Wife in bits and pieces – not liking the first one quite so much, loving the latter. 🙂 What I will read next? – Really want to read The Bong Mom’s Cookbook. Think I’ll order it. 🙂
