First review of the year and also the first disappointment.
Overall, the first two books were quite good: Shannon is brilliant and a very interesting character who is easy to connect with. In this third book, the narrative is focused on the next generation - Shannon and Rhiannon's daughters - and the lifes that they were not 100% happy with.
I found this book very slow paced, Morrigan is very annoying, very self centered and I could not connect with her enough to root for her at any point of the story.
Without giving any spoilers: for me the story should have ended before the first epilogue - it was very tragic and sad but a more dignified ending for such a narrative. This was kind of a sad ending to a story that was quite good and, honestly, I was hoping for something else.
