Whatcha Reading Wednesday

It’s WWW Wednesday again! This round-up is hosted by Sam at Taking on a World of Words. Today I answer the three questions:

  • What are you currently reading?
  • What did you just finish reading?
  • What are you going to read next?

What are you currently reading?

I adore these “liturgical mysteries.” They’re not about the dogmas or doctrines of the church; they’re about all the crazy characters in a small N.C. mountain town. Everyone from a small-town police chief/choir director who dreams of being the next Raymond Chandler, to the belly-dancing waitress/town mayor. It’s a hoot. This one is perfect for the lead-up to St. Patrick’s and during Lent – because the characters are going through the same season.

What did you recently finish reading?

I’ve loved each book I read in the Liturgical Mystery series. “The Organist Wore Pumps” is the eighth time organist/choir director Hayden Konig gets to investigate a crime – when he’s not trying to write hard-boiled detective fiction in the manner of Raymond Chandler. Oh, and he’s also the town’s chief of police. It all works out with a cast of characters every bit as lovable and eccentric as those in Mitford. It’s a cosy read, just perfect for relaxing with after a long day at work.

This wonderful book has caused me to rethink the way I eat. I posted a full review earlier this week.

What do you think you’ll read next?

I am trying to get to around to reading Dante’s Purgatory. But I’ve just not been ready to put aside my cosy mysteries. Perhaps next week!
