We are in a bitter freeze with snow and more snow. Schools are closed Monday already for President’s Day, but they cancelled trash collection because of dangerous temperatures, something that hasn’t happened in the 15 years we have lived here. Hope it is warmer where you are. Elbow hugs! Stay Caffeinated.

Stay well.
Lorna
I know you’ve been having a lot of bad weather lately. We keep getting warned of bad weather and then it’s nowhere near what they scare us about. I hope you kept your power. Here’s hoping for better weather for you!
S. J. Pajonas
Ugh. This winter has been awful! I hope you get warmer temps soon.
Tizzy
It’s been cold here too, but luckily it’s starting to thaw out a bit now. Hope it will get warmer for you this week too. Hope you enjoy your new books.
Heather @ RandomRedheadedRamblings
The temperature has went from nine below to nearly nine above in just over twenty four hours, icicles to large puddles!
Tyler H. Jolley
Oh dang, that’s terrible! Stay warm, Kimba! Hope you had a nice Valentine’s Day despite the cold!
vvb
Brrrr, stay warm and happy reading.
Vidya
hope it gets warmer for you soon.. We have the whole week off (not because of weather but a regular week long break that got added to the school schedule in our district a few years ago due to funding issues)..
MarthaE
I sure won’t complain about our weather.
I see you have some new titles I have been eyeing like The Rose Code and The Last Goodbye.
Stay warm and enjoy your reading!
Jinjer
Ohmygosh how cold is it??? It’s 11F right now at almost 10pm and I got a text saying our trash truck WILL be coming to pick up the trash in the morning. Not looking forward to dragging the cans to the curb at 7am that’s for sure. LOL
Kimberly
This morning it is -3 with wind chills of -30, tomorrow morning -23 with wind chills somewhere in the negative 40s… Freezing…lol
Jinjer
Yikes!
Nise' (Under the Boardwalk)
So glad I was able to leave the cold and snow behind for a few weeks. Stay warm!
Nicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
It’s been bitterly cold here too. So crazy!
Anne - Books of My Heart
I hope the weather warms up there. I will never forget 2013 in Minnesota where the temperature didn’t get above -10 between Dec 26 and March 2. It was bitterly cold and unending. They didn’t have school Jan 2, and 3 because when kids would be out for the bus it would be -25 or so. But after 2 days they just started having school anyway. At least now they have remote learning a lot of places. I’ll look forward to your thoughts on Quiet in Her Bones because I liked it a lot.
Jen
I hope you and yours stay safe and warm. We aren’t getting too cold (staying around mid-upper 20s) but snow and ice are coming. We’ve had a very snowy February after it being so mild in Dec-January.
Sophia Rose
Yep, snow and cold here, too. I’ve got my shovel handy and the bucket of salt ready to go for tonight. 🙂
Nice haul. I got Betwixt and Quiet in Her Bones, too.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Kimberly!
Mary Kirkland
It’s definitely warmer here but the wind has been a real problem. It knocked out power in some places, tree’s have been uprooted, signs blew down and power lines have been knocked over all in 2 days.
Carla
Happy Valentine’s Day Kimberly. It has been cold here as well, but not as cold as you have had it. It is the wind that made it so tough. I hope it gets better, the sun comes out and you get a bit of a warm up. Have a great week.
Lark @ The Bookwyrm's Hoard
I hear it is bitter across a lot of the US right now… wind chill is -13 where Robin and my parents and Robin. Brrrr! We had rain and freezing rain yesterday, but it’s a little warmer today — above freezing, if not by a lot. I hope you and your family stay warm and cozy, and I wish you all a very happy Valentine’s Day!
Tressa @ Wishful Endings
Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope things get warmer. That is so crazy! We have gorgeous weather, but I’m sure we will be too warm soon and you’ll have the nice weather.
Maya @herbookishdesires
Happy Valentine’s Day! It is pretty cold where I live as well and we are supposed to get 11 inches of snow on Monday. Not really looking forward to that ? I hope you and your family are staying warm, safe and healthy!
Lisa Mandina
I need to check out The Last Goodbye, it sounds good. I liked Layla when I read it. I’ll have to read your review to see how the audiobook was. Have a great week!
ShootingStarsMag
It’s pretty crazy cold and snowy here. We got a lot last week and tonight we’re supposed to get a TON so we shall see how that goes!! Stay warm and safe!

We have just had a very cold week too, with snow every night, although probably not as cold as you can get! ? I hope it warms up for you soon! Take care and happy reading, Kimberly ?
Stormi Johnson
The weather is super crazy cold! We can’t keep our house warm, it’s not been this bad in southwest Missouri in years! I am so over winter. Our water froze and probably won’t unthaw till Wednesday, part of country living I am not a fan of. 🙁
Have a great week and stay warm!
Stormi
Lori Caswell
I am hating this cold weather. It gets in your bones and it is hard to get warm. Stay safe and indoors with a good book 🙂
Samantha
Wow cancelled trash collection? I have never heard of that happening! Crazy! Stay warm!
Jan @ Notes from a Readerholic
Stay warm! We’re really cold here, too. So far nothing cancelled, but wouldn’t surprise me since it’s getting colder the next few days. Hope you have a good week, Kimberly!
Emma @ Words And Peace
wow, had not heard of trash collection cancelled because of the cold. Though in Chicagoland the real feel is -20 F today, so we cancelled Church! But looks like things are warming up starting Saturday. I can’t wait
Sophie
We got a cold front this week too but it has relented today! Yay for warmer days!
Lola
We had a very cold week here too with snow and freezing temperatures. It did look pretty at least! I hope you’re all staying warm and doing well!
Berls
Well I’m sure we’re warmer than you are, but we’re also dealing with record lows for Dallas. We’re in the teens today and anticipating single digits… breaking February records for something like 100 years. I cannot wait for it to warm up! Have a great week!
Jessica @ a GREAT read
Yeah I don’t think they’ve ever canceled trash service because of weather by us. At least not to my recollection! That’s crazy!
Nice new reads too! Hope you enjoy them all and stay warm!
Here’s my StS
Have a GREAT day!

Vi @Inkvotary
We have winter! When I look outside I see white, white and white and it is freezing cold. Went out for a walk the other day and it was like walking through wonderland. Happy reading and happy listening.
A Voracious Reader
Yikes! Hubby is heading back to Iowa tomorrow where it’s in the negatives. We’re in the 30s. Hope it warms up soon for you!
I have Betwixt to read from KU. I just need to get to it. Have a great week, Kim!
sjhigbee
It’s been bitterly cold here too, as the Beast from the East has been blowing through. Though not to the extent that you’re suffering! Let’s hope the coming week is warmer for both of us. In the meantime, let’s hunker down with some good books…
Shelleyrae @ Book’d Out
And people are still clawing climate change isn’t a thing!
Wishing you a great reading week, stay warm
Natalie @Natflix&Books
I just woke up to my husband saying not to go outside because of an ice storm and we have snow in the forecast. Definitely ready for winter to be over. Happy reading!
Harvee
I am eager to read The Rose Code by Kate Quinn.
Linda @ (un)Conventional Bookworms
I’m a little bit envious of you getting your hands on Quiet in Her Bones! I hope it’s a good one, Kim. I love Nalini Singh so much.
We have snow too, and quite low temperatures, but that also means it’s sunny today, and I love that.
Have a wonderful week ahead, stay safe and healthy. *elbow hugs*
Mareli @ Elza Reads
Hi Kimberley! It’s as hot as hell in our little coastal town in South Africa! But today is a bit better. Not complaining at all. I’m not good with cold weather.
Very excited for the new Kate Quinn, looking forward to your thoughts.
Have a good week and Happy Valentines Day!
Tanya @ Girl Plus Books
Yikes, I don’t envy you all that cold and snow! Hope you get a break soon. The Last Goodbye sounds right up my alley. I’ll be checking that one out.
karakarinanbr
Happy Valentine’s! And elbow hugs! Stay warm ❤
Gayathri
Oh that is harsh. I hope it gets a bit warmer for you (and a bit colder here in the Middle East). Happy Valentine’s day!
Yvonne
I’m sorry about the cold weather. I hope it warms up soon. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Victoria
Today we got a few more inches of snow and now overnight the low is -6 F booo- best to stay indoors, read a book, and drink copious amounts of hot cocoa! Happy Valentine’s Day!
Tessa
It’s been up and down here. I don’t envy you at all! Stay warm inside ? and read a book set in the summer.
Taylor @ Taylor Fenner’s Bookish World
It’s been really cold here too with windchills between -10 to -20 this past week but luckily only a little snow. Keep warm! It’s a perfect excuse to stay in and read ?
Maureen @ Maureen’s Books
Happy Valentines Day! It’s been pretty cold here too.. which isn’t that common here.
Your new books look great!
Have a great week and happy reading!
Diana @ Book of Secrets
We’re in the same boat weather-wise. I’m looking forward to Friday when we’re (barely) above freezing again!
M. Ravenel
Happy Valentine’s Day to you! Hope you and your family stay warm and safe! Please mail all the snow to me 🙂
Rachel
It’s been cold and rainy, but I’m sure not as cold as where you’re at. I would like to read Quiet in Her Bones. I love Nalini Singh and I enjoyed her venture into suspense/mystery.
Greg
It’s been cold here too although the snow has died down a little. Hope you’re able to stay warm this weekend and have a nice extra long one.
Laurel-Rain Snow
I hope your weather warms up a bit. I am eyeing your books, and hope to read my copy of Layla soon.
I loved The Wrong Family.
Enjoy the long weekend and the books on your shelves.
Jen at Introverted Reader
Oh my. This winter storm is no joke. Stay warm and safe!
