Why am I waiting?

I loved Ashfall the first book in the series. I like the super-volcano element of the story. I really just like everything about Ashfall. I read the first two chapters of Ashen Winter this weekend during the YA Scavenger Hunt. I really think that just from the first two chapters, Ashen Winter is going to be even more awesome than Ashfall. 

Have you read Ashfall?
