WWW Wednesday 6

This meme/link-up is hosted by Taking on a World of Words

What are you currently reading?
I'm trying out this thing where I only read one book at a time. This week I'm focusing on Banana Heart Summer by Merlinda Bobis. This is the first young adult novel I've encountered that reads like a foodie memoir. So far, so good. 

What did you recently finish reading?
I finally finished reading The World Between Two Covers by Ann Morgan. Three weeks ago I had really weird feelings about the chapter on colonialism/imperialism, and the chapters that followed were... milder. The book itself felt like a comprehensive review paper, like there was more research than conclusion. It was compelling in the sense that I felt compelled to take notes. I do think it's an interesting and worthwhile project, to try and read a book from every nation.

What do you think you'll read next?
After Banana Heart Summer, I want to read Sixty Six by Russell Molina. It's a graphic novel about a senior citizen (he's 66 years old) who gains superpowers. Should be interesting.
