It downloaded immediately. More patient folks got it later in the morning, greatauntoftriplets got hers about an hour after the official drop time.

How are you? It is absurdly cold in Florida. I have been forced to swim in indoor pools. If I did not already wish you a happy 2018, I am now.

First off, congrats on snagging the copy; I just knew it would happen today.

I just read the free forty page sample from Amazon Nook and concluded this book was rushed to the press, bypassing a ton of editing.

It is chuck full of tortured sentences, and confusing dialogue that leaves you hanging as to who or whom is actually being quoted.
