WWW Wednesday is a meme hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words.

The rules are answer the questions below and share a link to your blog in the comments section of Sam’s blog.

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

Hello!

I hope everyone is having a good week so far. Today was my first day back at school teaching piano, flute and ukulele after the Easter holidays and it was bit of a shock to the system. I did manage some reading during my lunch break which was good because I haven’t been doing much recently sadly.

What I am Currently Reading

This has been a bit slow for me but thankfully it has started to pick up because I was getting a little bit bored in the middle.

What I have Recently Finished Reading

Really enjoyed this quick read and was just what I needed this week. Sometimes it is good to just read a short book.

What I Think I will Read Next

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I will read next and I honestly have no idea. I think I want a standalone and an easy read. However, this all might change tomorrow as I am a mood reader.

Please drop me a comment with your WWW Wednesday and I will head over for a visit.

Happy Reading

Top 5 Tuesday: Snacks for Reading

Top 5 Tuesday was created by Shanah at Bionic Book Worm, and now being hosted by Meeghan reads.

Hello!

I will be honest I only really have one reading snack and it’s really a drink not a snack but I do occasionally treat myself to a snack or two whilst reading.

Anyway, here are the snacks/drinks

Tea – I love tea, when I wake up in the morning I’m thinking about tea. I would happily chain drink tea and nothing beats curling up with a book and a huge mug of tea.
Cake – On the rare occasion that I have been baking I will also happily curl up with book, a mug of and a huge slice of cake.
Chocolate – Who doesn’t love a piece of chocolate when reading? Obviously, you have to make sure the chocolate doesn’t melt because you don’t want melted chocolate on your book.
Hot chocolate – A couple of years ago my wonderful husband bought me a velvertiser by Hotel Chocolat for my birthday and I love it. A perfect accompaniment to a Christmas book in front of a nice fire.
Porridge – A random one but I used to read when I was eating breakfast and my favourite breakfast is porridge.

What are your favourite reading snacks?

Goodreads Monday: 2/05/2022

Goodreads Monday is now hosted by Budget Tales Book Club. All you have to do is show off a book from your TBR that you’re looking forward to reading.

Hello and welcome to the first Goodreads Monday of May.

My chosen book this week is actually one I have read before but one I have put back on my TBR pile because I absolutely love it and want to reread it this year.

Silas Marner: The Weaver of Raveloe is the third novel by George Eliot, published in 1861. An outwardly simple tale of a linen weaver, it is notable for its strong realism and its sophisticated treatment of a variety of issues ranging from religion to industrialisation to community.

Hello!

I hope everyone is having a good weekend so far. My weekend has been very busy work wise but I’m hoping to get a bit of reading in tonight, if I don’t fall straight asleep.
