What are you reading Wednesday – 10/14/15
What Are You Reading Wednesdays is a weekly meme hosted by It’s A Reading Thing. To participate, open the book you are currently reading to page 34 (or 34% in your ebook) and answer these three questions.
The Questions are:
1. What’s the name of your current read?
2. Go to page 34 in your book or 34% in your eBook and share a complete sentence. (or two!)
3. Would you like to live in the world that exists within your book? Why or why not?
Now for my answers this week…
1. I’ve finally finished a few of the books I was reading and started some new ones. One book that I’m reading this week is Blue Karma by J.K. Ullrich.
2. Totally destroyed. In a few hours I’m supposed to convince a roomful of investors that ice is our most secure source of water, and one of our key facilities is a smoking ruin.
3. NO – I would not want to live here. The place may be Earth, but it’s a dry, barren Earth with water privately owned and rationed.
Your turn! Leave a link to your own post in the comments if you have one, or just leave me your answers. Happy reading!
I’m so busy that I’m reading . . . something. I can’t remember which book it is but I hated to not post and say hello.
Hello Erika! 🙂

The Questions are:
1. What’s the name of your current read?
It hardly seems fair to say I’m reading my own book, though I am since I just got the ARCs in last night and am checking for errors. So, instead, I’ll tell you the other book I’m reading, which is Bianca M. Schwarz’s novel, A THING OF BEAUTY.
2. Go to page 34 in your book or 34% in your eBook and share a complete sentence. (or two!)
“Henry threw his head back and let out a delighted peal of laughter as he led her out onto the street. ‘As first attempts at bawdy flirtation go, you hit the mark dead on, sweetheart.'”
Bianca M. Schwarz. A Thing of Beauty: The Sir Henry March Mysteries: A Dark Historical Thriller (Kindle Locations 1665-1667). Penner Publishing.
3. Would you like to live in the world that exists within your book? Why or why not?
Hmmm…tough question. I’ve always thought I would love to live in Victorian England but, the more I read, the less appealing it sounds to me as a woman. Women had too few opportunities in that era, and I don’t know if I’d “fit” well. Otherwise, I love the era!

I have to agree with you on Victorian England – I used to think that it would be a fascinating time to have lived in, but the more that I read about the era, the more I realize that it would not have been a good time to be a woman!
