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

The idea is pretty simple, every week you dedicate a post to the three W’s:

What are you currently reading?

What have you just finished reading?

What are you going to read next?

The heat is on – my ac is still not fixed 😅. And of course this week just started to get hot and himid sigh…it sucks but I’m amazed I had motivation to read since sitting and not moving means I don’t get super hot in the house so it’s actually good for reading! I finally broke my reading slump with contemporary romance! I’m trying to get back into fantasy but I feel like my brain is too tired to get into world-building, so I’m reading those book slower than usual.

I finally read some books this weekend! I think it’s because my daughter’s dance recital is finally done and I can really relax now until the end of the month that is haha. Maybe my slump is over? Or I just finally got the books I’ve been waiting for at the library!

**Update** – so I thought my body could relax but then my week started with my a/c unit crapping out again – so I am a little too warm and toasty in my house. Also our house alarm was acting up, alerting the company that our garage door is open when it’s not, etc…so yeahhhh maybe not so much a relaxing week so farm but I’m determined to stay positive about all this. 😅

I can’t believe I just realized all my WWW Wednesday posts this year said 2023 LOL. OH WOW – guess I have to change that. See, I told you my brain has been elsewhere this year. Anyway, it’s May and my kids end the school year in 4 weeks – they are so excited. My daughter has her big recital this weekend and this will be it for her ballet and tap days. She might be trying something more mellow, like hula next. We shall see!

Did I read more this week? Not really…but I’m glad I had some progress, really slow progress, but at least it’s progress.

I haven’t picked up a book all weekend because I’ve been streaming Taylor Swift’s new album and trying to decode the lyrics – it’s been a grower for me but so good! I can’t believe we are almost at the end of April. My daughter is going to be busy with her tap recital being next week so we have stage rehearsals this week. Not sure if I’ll finish any books this week but I do have an audiobook I can listen to.

Finally I am feeling much better! Still some congestion but most of the yuckiness and the coughing is gone thank goodness. But now my daughter has pink eye so yay…fun! Now I’m trying to avoid that lol. I haven’t posted much, I haven’t read much and if I did it was one or two pages and then I’d put the book down. Not sure why I’m in such a slump but have you read any amazing books lately? If you have drop some recs in the comments, please!

I am a little off this week – my daughter caught her monthly cold last week, and then I think I have a bit of it or allergies. I can’t tell, but I feel funky – even woke up with vertigo yesterday, which SUCKS bad. I had to drain my sinuses which helped a lot. So I have a cough, post-nasal drip and just low energy. I feel like I’m in a reading slump, or I can’t seem to find the kind of book I want to read. Anyway, I’m pushing through some arcs, not a lot but I’d rather stay on top of them.

I feel like I’ve been a little sloppy with my posts too or scheduling them. I posted two Top Ten Tuesdays yesterday lol. 😅 Sorry about that.

I was a but out of it at the start of this week because the weekend, which I thought wasn’t going to be so busy…got busy. Took my kids to the pool on Friday which tired me out, had my parents at my house Saturday as usual and my son had a piano lesson, then Sunday for Easter I brought my kids to an indoor playground for an hour then went home and we had lunch with my mom and sister, dyed eggs, decorated a cake, had a mini egg hunt for my 2 kids, then they opened the eggs and their Easter baskets. I was DONE. 😅 Why are weekends never relaxing?! So I started off this week – tired. I only got to finish 2 books since it was an unexpectedly busy weekend.

I am actually amazed at how few titles I have requested on NetGalley this year! I cut down a lot…like 50% less requests I think, and now I don’t have many arcs to review for the summer. I don’t know if I’m happy about that or not. 😅 I think I’m happy about it because I don’t have a NetGalley list glaring at me and pressuring me to finish reading all these arcs.

It is spring break and I thought I would have more motivation to read but….not really? I am getting through some books though, especially my arcs. I can’t believe spring break is almost done though – so sad that it goes by super fast!
