Hi Reader, I've got something helpful to share with you about Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros! First, with 2.7 MILLION copies sold in its first week, this third book in the Empyrean series is the fastest-selling adult novel in 20 years. To put this in perspective, selling a few thousand copies of a book can land you on a bestseller list. Over the past two weeks, I've done nothing but read, take notes, and write about Onyx Storm. Earlier in the week, I shared my blog posts to date with you. Now, there are even more Onyx Storm blog posts at The Literary Lifestyle to share, including a character guide -- because I know how many people are struggling to recall the characters. (If you're still on the first (Fourth Wing) or second (Iron Flame) book in the series, don't worry! This link takes you to all my Empyrean series blog posts -- there are almost 30 now.) One more update to share with you is that you can now also purchase ad-free printable PDF versions of my Onyx Storm reading guides in my Patreon shop. This means you can have all my chapter summaries, dragon charts, signet charts, and character descriptions right at your fingertips while you read. (By the way, they are designed so you can avoid spoilers if you don't want to see them.) Your confusion ends and your escapism begins now.
Remember, it's a good day to read a book. -Jules P.S. - Members of my Patreon community get 20% off in my Patreon shop. To find your code, log into Patreon and click the Membership tab. If you aren't yet a member, you can start your free trial now if you want to use the code. |

Formerly known as The Literary Lifestyle. We are in the middle of rebranding! Hi Reader, One of bestselling author Jo Piazza’s biggest interests is trad (traditional) wives, which is the subject of her newest release, Everyone Is Lying To You. (In case you aren’t familiar with trad wives, it’s a social media community of women who embrace traditional gender roles in marriage. They focus on sharing domestic duties, such as cooking, cleaning, and child-rearing, and a 1950s-style ideal of a more...
Formerly known as The Literary Lifestyle. We are rebranding! Hi Reader, June is Audiobook Month, and I haven't yet talked to you about audiobooks, so let's do it! Audiobooks are what got me back into reading about ten years ago. I was spending a lot of time in the car and just wasn't getting enough stimulation from the radio or podcasts.
