WWW Wednesday: 5 November 2025

WWW Wednesday is a meme that is hosted by Taking on a World of Words. It's a very simple premise of sharing with others The Three Ws:


What are you currently reading? 
What did you recently finish reading? 
What do you think you’ll read next?


What am I currently reading?




It's been awhile since I read any non-fiction and this featured in ABC Radio National's countdown of the Top 100 Books of the 21st Century. I really enjoyed Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything and so this one appealed to me. It's a lot more serious, and sometimes that way he writes about Australia's First Nations peoples doesn't sit well with me, but so far its... good. I mean, I'm not getting all excited about it, but its ok. 


What did I finish reading?




Again inspired by ABC Radio National's countdown of the Top 100 Books of the 21st Century, I just finished Piranesi by Susanna Clark. I really really liked it - highly recommend it. It's very unique and emotional and suspenseful and so many things. I need more time to reflect on it before I can properly describe it. 


What is up next?




Normally I don't plan ahead but I need to get my book club urgently so next up its The Soul of Kindness by Elizabeth Taylor for my Literary Wives Book Club. I know nothing about this book whatsoever and it's nice to approach a book from a completely neutral beginning.
