Greetings!
This weekend has been a joy. I attended my first-ever drag brunch, watched my friend perform, and had a blast. I tried a new sandwich place on my list (it wasn’t that great, to be honest) and baked focaccia bread (which was therapeutic). A surprising highlight of the weekend was Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show. The commentary, choreography, and symbolism were all masterpieces.
Here’s my reading highlight:
Onyx Storm (The Empyrean #3) by Rebecca Yarros
3 stars
Where do I begin? I was a little disappointed with the book.
13 chapters in, and I couldn’t help but give Xaden the side-eye. I had hoped he wouldn’t turn out to be a “Tamlin”, but after finishing the book, I’m not sure; it looks very likely.
I appreciated how we could delve into the thoughts of the other cadets and dragons; however, this only occurred towards the end of the book during the final battle, making it feel rushed and somewhat insignificant.
