It’s Wednesday which means it’s time to tell you what we have been up to for the past week (well, two weeks actually). W..W..W.. Wednesdays is a weekly meme bought to you by MizB from Should Be Reading.

What are you currently reading?

Kristy - Sinner (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #3.5) by Maggie Stiefvater.

Melissa - I’m continuing with Fables at the moment, it’s SO good!! I’m reading Fables Volume 4: March of the Wooden Soldiers, and I am also continuing with the horror series Locke & Key, and am reading Locke & Key Volume 4: Keys to the Kingdom.

What did you recently finish reading?

Kristy - I listened to Ruin and Rising (The Grisha, #3) by Leigh Bardugo.. as well as reading The Witch of Duva (The Grisha, #0.5), The Tailor (The Grisha, #1.5), The Too-Clever Fox (The Grisha, #2.5) and Little Knife (The Grisha, #2.6).

Melissa - I finished reading Fables Volume 2: Animal Farm, Fables Volume 3: Storybook Love, Chew Volume 2: International Flavour, as well as Locke & Key Volume 3: Crown of Shadows. That’s right! I have been very busy!

What do you think you’ll read next?

Kristy - Ummm tough choice. Either Cooper Bartholomew is Dead by Rebecca James, Talon (Talon #1) by Julie Kagawa or My True Love Gave to Me: Twelve Holiday Stories by Stephanie Perkins.

Melissa - Still on my list is Batgirl: Year One or maybe Gotham Central Volume 1.
