A review by wildflowerz76
The Shape of Night, by Tess Gerritsen
1.0
I received a digital ARC of this title from Edelweiss for an honest review.
Ava is a food writer who drinks entirely too much so she can forget about what happened on New Year's Eve. She rents a big, old house in Maine so she can focus on her writing and get away from all the things that are making her remember. The only problem is that the house she's rented is haunted.
The Shape of Night is quite a different book from Gerritsen's Rizzoli & Isles books. It's much more of a gothic ghost story...with a bit of Fifty Shades thrown in.
This one started out okay, but when we get to BDSM with a ghost, I lost interest. Not to mention that reading about an alcoholic drinking all the time is super uninteresting. I loved Gerritsen's mystery series (which I only came to fairly recently), but this one was just awful.
