The questions are:

  1. What are you currently reading?
  2. What did you recently finish reading?
  3. What do you think you’ll read next?

Currently Reading :

Lolita

Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov

By now almost everyone as read this book and I’m finally picking it up. It’s definitely not what I had expected. But this book is going to take me a while to finish. Mainly because I’m not used to reading the classics but also because my college started again and that is interfering with my reading routines. So I only read a few pages a day, hopefully it’ll be finished by next week.

I am also reading a book I received for review purposes The Farthest City by Daniel P. Swenson and it is really interesting.

The Farthest City

One soldier, Sergeant Sheemi Tanamal, experiencing unbearable loss, possessed by her anger, wants as much revenge as she can get before she dies in battle. An unexpected mission changes everything.
Citizen Kellen Beaudin, is a shy, sensitive artist with a different, but equally troubling past. Kellen’s origin is deeply intertwined with the machines, although he doesn’t understand how or why. He learns who he really is when his machine obsession takes him on an incredible journey.
Neither Kellen or Sheemi will ever be the same.

    From my knowledge of the word “lolita” is it about a young looking woman? Lol I blame my conclusion on watching too much anime. I also recently added A Dream of Ashes to my tbr and I can’t wait to read it.

    I had such a hard time with Lolita! I did not finish the book, it was not my cup of tea. I struggle with classics, so when the story can’t keep me interested, it’s a lost cause! I’ve heard Red Rising is awesome, so I hope you enjoy it 🙂
    Happy reading!
