pickKelly Armstrong knows how to grab you and keep you engrossed in her books. They are full of mystery, suspense, and intrigue. Cold as Hell is the third book in her Haven's Rock Series. This series is a spin-off from her Rockton Series she ended after 7 books.
Armstrong's writing was superb in Cold as Hell. I stayed up until after 1 this morning, finishing it. I COULDE NOT put it down. I had to know who it was and what was going to ⬇️
My reading goal for the year and some of the books I hope to get to from my endless TBR 😬

pickThe latest is another satisfying entry to the Rockton/Haven‘s Rock series. I won‘t give away any of the plot, but Armstrong has a knack for varying things in each book so they don‘t feel repetitive or silly. I really enjoyed this one.
This is my most anticipated book of December. I received an ARC from NetGalley. I love Rockton and Haven's Rock novels.

I finished this one yesterday with a late lunch of tonkatsu ramen, gyoza & lemon tea which is not at all Canadian for November‘s #FoodAndLit Canada, but I did consume some Canadian snacks from @mcctrish & I‘ll post about those later.
Book 3 in the Haven‘s Rock series & it‘s a good one! Lots of tension & good progression in the storyline. TBH, my reader is a bit off with this dumpster fire 🔥 of a week so I was ⬇️
#DaysDevotedTo
2nd trip of the week, to Maui for the day to help my HR Manager with open enrollment & visit some locations. The flight is earlier than Hilo which means I‘m a bit too early for the lounge & so I am having a lap picnic breakfast in the boarding area. Todays is the new turkey sage Danish (tastes like stuffing) & a sugar cookie oatmilk latte, so a little #Coffee/Tea to start the day. Still working on my ARC
My first of two day trips this week, Hilo today & Maui tomorrow. Still not a 100% but getting better. (Thanks for all the care & concern, everyone).
Changed up my airport breakfast a bit today to the potato cakes. Happy to spend some time with my ARC although it is going too fast. I love this series!
#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon
My #HyggeHour is starting this ARC that I‘ll be using as my #FoodAndLit Canada pick for November. It‘s the latest book in a favorite series from Armstrong, publishing at the first of the year & set in the Yukon. I may try to get to another of the author‘s ARCs this month as well.
For snacks, I was surprised & delighted to find a box from the lovely @mcctrish on my porch this morning full of Canadian snacks. ⬇️
#WickedWhispers
Murders during a blizzard in an hidden community in the Yukon are all the more #Chilling due to the isolation.🥶😱
I just got this ARC from the publisher & I‘m excited to start Book 3 in the Haven‘s Rock series. I‘m also using this one for the #Cold prompt in the #HauntedShelf #BookScavengerHunt

Cold as Hell | 
Armstrong has developed Eric and Casey throughout the Rockton Series and now the Haven's Rock Series. I have watched them mature and grow. It's so great when a writer gives you the chance to fall in love with their characters. When it feels like you are visiting old friends. Armstrong writes in a way that makes you feel like you are right there with her characters going through whatever they are with them.
I just have to say, if you haven't read Kelly Armstrong, I don't know what you are waiting for! If you are interested in the Haven's Rock Series or never read them or the Rockton Series, I would suggest you start with the City of the Lost, the first book in the Rockton Series. That way, you get to know all the characters in the series and the back story. I highly recommend the Haven's Rock Series and the Rockton Series.
Tentative Publication Date:
February 18, 2025
Thanks to Netgalley, Saint Martins Press, and Kelly Armstrong for the E-ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
😊 Happy Reading 😊
