What’s Up Wednesday #3
It’s time for another What’s Up Wednesday post, where I tell you about what’s up with me. This blog hop is a great opportunity for a check in with myself…
WHAT I’M READING I finished Thorns by Kate Avery Ellison and Tiger Lily by Jodi Lynn Anderson. I’m just getting back into Allegiant. I’m 60% in. I had started reading this when it first came out, but then wasn’t getting into it, and people on the internet were all upset, and I didn’t really want to know anymore. I hate endings.
Which reminds me, I also read Locke & Key, Vol. 6: Alpha & Omega, the end of Locke & Key. *heart breaks* What a perfect series. This is my favorite comic, and you should read it! Dark fantasy, completely interesting mythology. I love dark family stories. And the ending… is good. *happy sigh*
WHAT I’M WRITING Stuff. 😉 I can start talking about this next week, I think. I’m in manic drafting mode, and feel uncomfortable breaking to write this post.
WHAT INSPIRES ME RIGHT NOW I have a pinterest board and playlist for my work in progress. Most of the songs are stolen from my bird playlist (yes, I have a bird playlist. I also have a hands playlist, elephants, stars… I’m a weird lady, okay?) including “Little Bird” by Annie Lennox, “The Bird Song” from Florence + the Machine, Blackbird from The Beatles, “Little Bird” from Imogen Heap, and Death Cab’s “Talking Bird.”
WHAT ELSE I’VE BEEN UP TO There are other things? On Friday I’m going to Emerald City Comicon! I’m excited about it! When I remember it’s happening.
Have fun at ECCC! I’m not going this year but it sounds like it’s going to be awesome!
Hope so 🙂
I found ALLEGIANT really difficult to get into as well. I think it was just lacking everything I loved about DIVERGENT. I really, really need to get reading my copy of TIGER LILY. I’ve been reading a lot of sci-fi and fantasy lately, so maybe that will be something a little different for a change.
I’ve never been to any kind of ComicCon, but it’s definitely a bucket list kind of thing for me. Have a wonderful time!
Tiger Lily was a big change of pace for me. It’s given me a book hangover, for sure. There was a lot to think about it. I really liked it.
Good luck on the stuff you’re writing! Keep up the momentum with your draft. 🙂
Happy reading and writing! from Laura Marcella @ Wavy Lines
Thanks 🙂
I found ALLEGIANT hard to read only because I didn’t want to get to the end. I am hanging out for DIVERGANT to come on the movies in Australia. I have to wait till the 10th of April.
Tiger Lily is on my TBR list which gets bigger and bigger every Wednesday 🙂
Have a great week.
My TBR list is so overwhelming I can’t even bring myself to stare it down! It’s hard to pick.
I was in a manic writing mood this past weekend 🙂 I love the idea of themed music playlists!
I love those moods 🙂 And themed music playlists are really fun! I like discovering new songs, and going through and finding every song I can about something like elephants (my favorite animal) opens me up to a lot of new music.
