Just leave a comment with your responses. Please, take some time to visit the other participants and see what others are reading. So, letβs get to it!
The three Ws are: What are you currently reading? What have you finished reading? What will you read next?
πππππ
What are you currently reading?
I’m still loving the daily poems from Brian Bilston. I’ve started listening to Little Dorrit by Charles Dickens, which is a whopping 40 hours long, so expect to see that for a while! I’m also reading book 4 of a cosy mystery series set in 1930s Ceylon/Sri Lanka, and another travel writing anthology from Jules Brown π
What have you finished reading?
Β The first three books in the cosy mystery series I mentioned above, and a wonderful dual timeline historical romance that I reviewed on Monday
I am intrigued by the cosy mystery series set in 1930s Ceylon/Sri Lanka. Why did Dickens have to write such long novels? I want to read more of his works, but the length puts me off!
Looks like you had a successful reading week. I liked the TV series of Little Dorrit π A 1930s cosy series sounds good. I’m off to investigate further!
I’m intrigued by the Nuala series, I’ve added the first book to my Everand list. I looked at Little Dorrit a while ago and thought: nope π You’re a braver woman than I am, Nicki π
Good for you! I did the same with an Edgar Allan Poe collection and I did finish that, and earlier than planned, too. But that was “only” 30 something hours π
And I thought David Copperfield was long! π²π

Apparently he got paid by the word and his books were serialised so that probably explains the length!

Wow, that’s a long audiobook. At least it’s Juliet Stevenson narrating. She’s brilliant!

Little Dorrit is not so little but that’s just longer to enjoy it.
