What I’m Currently Reading

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman

CURRENT STATUS: 4%

CURRENT FEELS: 😆 (super excited)

✯✯ Yep, I’m finally doing it! T. I’m really looking forward to this! I hope it lives up to the hype! ✯✯

What I Finished Reading Recently

A Widow’s Charm by Caitlyn Paxson

★★ Yeah, as I’ve mentioned before, A Widow’s Charm wasn’t quite what I was expecting and it didn’t do it for me. The cover art and writing were really good, though. ★★

What I’m Reading Next

Carl’s Doomsday Scenario by Matt Dinniman

☆☆ If I like Dungeon Crawler Carl, I’ll probably read this next. ☆☆

Aurora: Volume 2 by Red

☆☆ I’m absolutely reading this in the near future. Like, probably before the end of April kind of near future. ☆☆

No Gods No Kings by Demetria Paxton

☆☆ Yeah, I might read this coming up. Still somewhat undecided, though, so that might change. ☆☆

What books has everyone been reading lately? What have you thought of them? What are you thinking of reading next?

Anyway, thank you to everyone for reading, and I hope that you have a great day/night!

See ya ~Mar

What I’m Currently Reading

✯✯ I’m in between books again, haha. So embarrassing. Why must this happen so frequently for me? ✯✯

What I Recently Finished Reading

A Widow’s Charm by Caitlyn Paxson

★★ This wasn’t quite what I was expecting. I also didn’t enjoy it as much as I’d hoped. I didn’t hate it, and it has a gorgeous cover, but it wasn’t a hit for me. ★★

What I’m Reading Next

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman

☆☆ This is still on my immediate TBR. I really got to get reading it, haha. ☆☆

What I’m Currently Reading

A Widow’s Charm by Caitlyn Paxson

CURRENT STATUS: 26%

CURRENT FEELS: 🤔 (unsure)

✯✯ I’m really not sure how I feel about this one yet. It started off much hornier than I expected, which put me off a little, and I wasn’t immediately into either of the protagonists, for various reasons. For now, I’m still giving it a chance, as I’m still interested in seeing where this goes at the moment. ✯✯

What I Recently Finished Reading

One Piece (Volumes 79, 80, & 81) by Eiichiro Oda

★★ I really enjoyed the Dressrosa arc, even if it was a little slower. Far more than the Fishman Island arc in any case. I’m teetering around four stars for the last few volumes I read, though I might end up going up a little with the rating. But yeah, great arc. Looking forward to the Whole Cake Island arc later this year. ★★

What I’m Reading Next

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman

☆☆ I’m still super eager to read this, and I really hope I enjoy it. I’m nervous about hyping it up too much, especially since A Widow’s Charm is not hitting so far for me (hopefully I can really get into it soon, though). But yeah, looking to start Dungeon Crawler Carl later this week. ☆☆

Hey all, hope your Wednesday is going well!

What I’m Currently Reading

One Piece (Volumes: 73, 74, & 75) by Eiichiro Oda

CURRENT STATUS: 33%

CURRENT FEELS: 🙂 (happy, liking it)

✯✯ I’m enjoying the Punk Hazard/Dressrosa arcs much better than Fishman Island. I’ve heard the Dressrosa part is a little slower, but I haven’t noticed it yet. ✯✯

What I Recently Finished Reading

One Piece (Volumes 70, 71, & 72) by Eiichiro Oda

★★ I thought this was pretty good. I’m interested in where the story is going, and I’m loving all the buildup to the end of the current arc. I’m also liking how momentum for a future arc (Wano) is ramping up, too. ★★

One Piece (Volumes 67, 68, & 69) by Eiichiro Oda

★★ Ahhh, this was a much stronger and interesting start to a new arc than Fishman Island was for me. I also really liked the fire and ice thing Punk Hazard had going on – it was really cool. It reminded me so much of Super Mario Galaxy (as well as Galaxy 2). I also went back an dropped Fishman Island down like half a star to a 3.5 for both supervolumes – I didn’t realize I’d rated it so high!).★★

What I’m Reading Next

One Piece (Volumes 76, 77, & 78) by Eiichiro Oda

☆☆ I’m really looking forward to finishing this arc. I love One Piece, but there are just so many other books I want to read, and this manga is just. So. Long. It’s a huge time commitment and I gotta take some breaks. Right now I’m thinking I’ll resume with the Zou and Whole Cake Island arcs in the summer, just to give me time to read some other stuff. I really am enjoying the Punk Hazard and Dressrosa arcs so far, though. ☆☆

Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman

☆☆ I’m really pumped to read this book and give the Dungeon Crawler Carl series a shot. I really hope that I like it. ☆☆

A Widow’s Charm by Caitlyn Paxson

☆☆ This is one of my most anticipated new books from March 2026, and I’m still really looking forward to it. I’m planning to read it next week after it comes out. The summary sounds great, so I hope I like it. And the cover is so gorgeous! ☆☆

What books has everyone been reading lately? What have you thought of them? What are you thinking of reading next?

Anyway, thank you to everyone for reading, and I hope that you have a great day/night!

WWW Wednesday: 3/4

It’s been quite a long time since I last participated in this post. There were a couple of reasons, but I think the biggest one was that I’d mention most if not all of the Three Ws in my Weekly Wrap-Ups every week, so I thought it was a little redundant.

But I’ve missed it, so I’m back! I can’t believe it’s been over a year. The other big reason I stopped is that I was in-between books half the time whenever the middle of the week came around, so hopefully that stops happening. 🍀🤞

Also: I made a new cover image!!

The Thing I’m Currently Reading

Don’t Let the Forest In by CG Drews

CURRENT STATUS: 2%

CURRENT FEELS: 😁 (excited)

The Thing I Finished Reading Recently

Stolen Midnights by Katherine Quinn

★★ I’m conflicted about this book, and my star rating keeps changing. It’s why it’s taken me this long to review it, (which I’m angling to do tomorrow) even though I finished it last weekend. ★★

The Thing I’m Probably Going to Read Next

Brighter Than Nine by June CL Tan

☆☆ I’m really looking forward to this one. It’s one of my most anticipated books and sequels for the first half of 2026. ☆☆

It’s been a few weeks since I last participated, but I’m reading something on a Wednesday again, so… yeah.

The Thing I’m Currently Reading

Skyshade by Alex Aster

CURRENT STATUS: 2%

CURRENT FEELS: 😈 (I’m so looking forward to this trainwreck – will it retroactively make the first two books even worse, I wonder?)

The Thing I Most Recently Finished Reading

Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation (MDZS) by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu

☆★ Star rating is for all the entire story as a whole, not each individual volume. Also, haven’t posted a review yet, lol (though to be fair I just finished it). It’s coming eventually though! ★☆

The Thing(s) I Might Read Next

  • The Raven Tower by Ann Leckie: I’ve wanted to read more Leckie ever since I read Lake of Souls a few months ago. I’ve already acquired this book, and am definitely planning on reading it before the end of the year at least.
  • House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas: I’ve had this book for several months now, and it’s been on my TBR for about the same amount of time. My cousins were also planning on reading Crescent City as of Christmas of last year and I kind of want to discuss it with them, so I’d like to read at least the first book before Christmas.
  • The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie: This series has been on my radar for years, but as with most popular high fantasy series, I’ve been wary about reading it (mostly because I’ve DNF-ed quite a few of them – I’m looking at you A Song of Ice and Fire (got to book two), The Name of the Wind and The Way of Kings). But I’m thinking of giving it a real shot, and am hoping to read it before the year ends.
