The Three W’s are: What did you just finish reading? What are you currently reading? What do you think you’ll read next? Recently Finished This Is How I Lied 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Currently Reading   I am happy to report that I am finally into Anxious People and understand why so many folks love it!  With under 100 pages to go, I am hoping this will be my final book completed of 2020.   I am half-way through listening to Caught and boy is it getting interesting.  So many possibilities and I can't wait to find out what happened to Hayley.   I started reading The Woman Outside My Door last weekend.  It is creepy-good and I am hooked, I can't wait to find out if this "New Granny" is real or not, and if someone really is watching them?   On Deck Are   The Girl He Used To Know,   You Should See Me

Currently Reading   I've been reading Anxious People for a few weeks.  While I am enjoying it, I am having trouble getting into it.  I think it's more about me than the book.  I'm house-hunting and buying in my area feels like a full-time job and is taking up a lot of space in my brain.   I started listening to Caught on Audiobook yesterday and I'm intrigued to see where this story leads.  I started reading This is How I Lied last night before going to bed.   Reading before bed has always been a habit of mine.  I find it helps me relax and put the day behind me.  Sometimes I am bette
