WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Taking on a World of Words.
WWW stands for three questions:
1. What are you currently reading?
by Jude Morgan
Synopsis:
From an obscure country parsonage came the most extraordinary family of the nineteenth century. The Brontë sisters created a world in which we still live - the intense, passionate world of JANE EYRE and WUTHERING HEIGHTS; and the phenomenon of this strange explosion of genius remains as baffling now as it was to their Victorian contemporaries. In this panoramic novel we see with new insight the members of a uniquely close-knit family whose tight bonds are the instruments of both triumph and tragedy. Emily, the solitary who turns from the world to the greater temptations of the imagination: Anne, gentle and loyal, under whose quietude lies the harshest perception of the stifling life forced upon her: Branwell, the mercurial and self-destructive brother, meant to be king, unable to be a prince: and the brilliant, uncompromising, tormented Charlotte, longing for both love and independence, who establishes the family's name and learns its price.
I've always wanted to read a book about the Brontë sisters, this is it.
2. What did you recently finish reading?
I've finished To Kill a Mockingbird, the review is coming tomorrow!
3. What do you think you'll read next?
by Shelby K. Morrison
Synopsis:
After fleeing her home
in Tharien with the Emperor's forces hot on her heels, Aia Wynnald has
only one goal: To end the two-thousand-year-old discrimination against
Benders—a race of beings like her, with a misunderstood gift. But when
the Emperor’s Church of Mighty retaliates with a new threat, her noble
plans are put on hold.
With her companion Cole Balain, a former enemy, by her side, Aia must halt the devastation triggered by her well-meaning actions. The only way she can fight the Church is with the help of a disenchanted group of rebel Benders who'd sooner submit to their fate than follow Aia's lead.
Can she inspire them to fight and work together to resolve this new crisis, or will her ingrained submissive nature bring her, and the Benders of Dyel, to their knees?

I read the first book in the series and loved it very much. Can't wait to dive into the second instalment.
