WWW: Wednesdays is hosted by MizB over at Should Be Reading.
To play along, just answer the following three questions....
*What are you currently reading?
*What did you just recently finish reading?
*What do you think you'll read next?
Current: McKee of Centre Street by Helen Reilly (another of my vintage mysteries). This is a detective novel of Centre Street and the New York police. In it you will meet Inspector McKee, tight-lipped, cold-eyed, a hunter of men and the most absorbing sleuth since Lieutenant Valcour. I'm not very far into to it, but this strikes me as a very early police procedural. The story centers on the death of a dancer at a high-tone speakeasy. Who shot Rita Rodriguez as she twirled and whirled on the dance stage?
Read Since Last Wednesday (click titles for reviews):
Something New by P. G. Wodehouse
The Silk Stocking Murders by Anthony Berkeley
Zubin Mehta: The Score of My Life by Zubin Mehta
The Thornthwaite Inheritance by Gareth P Jones
Up Next:
Leave It To Psmith by P. G. Wodehouse: The next Blandings Castle book for my Wodehouse Challenge.
We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson (need to get started on my Gothic Challenge)

Just stopping by to make sure you didn't fall off the wagon...waves waves
Hope you don't mind me tagging along - this challenge looks great so I've signed up for it too! Love your blog by the way - so many interesting things to see!
I loved Shirley Jackson's short story The Lottery & haven't read it since high school. Hope her novel is just as good!
Nice list off books!
