Weekly Meme: WWW Wednesdays (Jan 26)

Thought I’d play along with this weekly meme WWW Wednesdays (via the Should Be Reading blog) where I answer three (3) questions:

---

• What are you currently reading?

I’m currently reading Paul of Dune by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.

I received a copy as a gift last Christmas (I’m a known SciFi and Dune fan), and I finally managed to squeeze it in my TBR pile. I loved Frank Herbert’s magnum opus Dune and Dune Messiah, but the events in those two books were separated by a decade. Paul of Dune is supposed to bridge that time gap and give fans more info about the bloody Jihad that swept the galaxy.

• What did you recently finish reading?

I actually re-read my copies of Frank Herbert’s Dune and Dune Messiah over the holidays.

It’s been a long time since I’ve read them, so I wanted to be sure about the characters and events, before I went ahead and read Paul of Dune. Usually, I’m disappointed when I re-read a book I raved over when I was a kid, but Frank Herbert’s writing and imagination is as exceptional now as it was the first time I read him. Total genius!

• What do you think you’ll read next?

I’m planning to read The City of Ember (The First Book of Ember) by Jeanne DuPrau. I’d read a marvelous review of this YA dystopic future story about two teens on a race to save their dying underground city via Anastacia’s Birdbrain(ed) Book Blog, so I’ve added that to my TBR pile!
