Thanks to the lovely Sam who hosts this meme at Taking On A World of Words.
What are you currently reading?
Yesterday I finally started reading The Night Circus and so far I am really enjoying it. The writing style and world building are gorgeous, I am in love with the wonderful descriptions and looking forward to seeing where this story will take me.
What did you recently finish reading?
I recently finished reading The DUFF which I thought was a light-hearted and fun novel on the whole although it also dealt with some quite profound messages about self-image too. I just watched the movie too and I prefer the book! I also recently finished reading I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou. Maya was such an inspirational woman and I thoroughly enjoyed this first instalment of her memoirs.
What do you think you’ll read next?
I’ve got a couple of books lined up for April but I’m going to start with Cinder (finally!) and then probably The Diary of a Young Girl to mix it up a little. I also need to get around to reading a few of my ARCs.
What have you been reading this week? Do you have any thoughts on the books I’ve mentioned? What do you recommend I read next?

Oh, man, I really need to get around to reading the Diary of Anne Frank. Every time I see it mentioned, I feel a little bit guiltier.
Hope you enjoy Cinder. The Lunar Chronicles is a very fun series.

I’d definitely recommend Cinder as I loved the whole series. I have to admit the Night Circus has been on my list for a while but I never seem to find the right time to read. Will be interested to see what you think.

The Night Circus is beautifully written, I’ll be posting my review by the end of the week probably! I had been putting it off for ages but glad I finally read it. Cinder will be a starter for me this weekend, really looking forward to it! 🙂

Would you recommend watching The Duff? I don’t have much time with reading lately but might find time to watch some films. Worth a watch?

It was okay. I thought it could have been funnier and it was quite different from the book so I think maybe I just expected something completely different from it!

The Night Circus is so well-written. The descriptions, particularly those of the circus, are wonderful. I can still remember what I imagined the place smelled like! 🙂
Cinder is brilliant. I hope you enjoy it.

Everyone loves The Night Circus but I just got nothing from it! I don’t know if it’s just me or what but I did not care for it.. I really need to reread Cinder though and finish the series. I only read the first two but really enjoyed them.

So far I’m enjoying the descriptions and world-building but I’m interested to see where the plot is going. Time will tell! 🙂 I don’t know why I still haven’t started the Lunar Chronicles – Cinder is definitely my next book though!

I’m glad you’re enjoying it! It does have a really interesting world building!.. Don’t feel bad! There are tons of popular books that I haven’t gotten around to reading yet.

Sometimes I prefer to wait until after they’ve been read really widely so I can have my own time with the story!

I saw The Duff on Netflix at the weekend and was tempted to watch it, then I remembered seeing it on a blog that it was a book first and now I know where I’d seen it! 9/10 I prefer to read the book first 🙂
