WWW: Wednesdays

WWW: Wednesdays is hosted by MizB over at Should Be Reading. This is a weekly meme that I have been participating in for over a year now.

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:

The Master of Ballantrae by Robert Louis Stevenson: Set in the mid-eighteenth-century Scotland, this brooding historical romance finds two brothers ominously divided during the Jacobite Rebellion. The struggle between good and evil begins in the old Scottish castle of Durrisdeer--the ancestral home of the Durie clan--where James Durie, Master of Ballandtrae persists in his lifelong rivalry with a younger brother and relentlessly seeks to acquire the family fortune.

    And here I thought I was behind...Goodreads says I am--according to the challenge I've signed up for.

    No secret, really. Just keep grabbing another book when I get finished with one.

    Yay, Robert Louis! I adored his stories as a kid, and read them all before somebody told me they were classics...and by then it was too late. I was hooked. :)

    Happy WWW!

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
