Cold Snaps, Onyx Storm, and Slowly Emerging

Hey Book Blogger Friends! I won’t ask how your week was. This past week was… a lot.

The beginning of this week brought some of the coldest windchills I can remember in my part of Wisconsin in my lifetime (I’m 32) at -35 degrees. When I picked up groceries on Monday I had to wear leggings under my sweatpants, 2 pairs of socks, a t-shirt under my hoodie, my heaviest winter coat, gloves, a hat, and scarf. I looked kind of like Count Orlock from Nosferatu in my coat.

Tuesday as many already know was release day for Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros. Amazon was unable to fulfill my preorder due to “supply chain issues” as of Thursday and I spent 2 hours looking for it yesterday at any store I could think of that sold books. Don’t worry, I have a friend hopefully tracking me down a copy on Monday otherwise I’m 1,414th in line for the audiobook from my library. I still think this is an unfair gimmick on the publisher’s part.

Now that we’re approaching the end of January and the cold snap has ended I’m slowly getting back out into the world as my seasonal affective disorder lifts a little and I’m glad it doesn’t feel like I’m being strangled by depression anymore.
