A Shiver of Light by Laurell K. Hamilton
1.0
A Shiver of Light is the 9th book in the Merry Gentry series. I’m going to try hard not to give anything away. Basically Merry is pregnant with twins and her uncle is claiming that they are his.
I like Merry and I don’t mind all her men because I’ve gotten used to her having several men in her life. I didn’t expect that to change with the aspect of children entering her life. I like all the guys they each have their own unique story and fit for her. However my favorite is Lord Sholto he has such a tortured soul story he’s just my favorite.
I’ve been waiting for what seems like forever for the book and I understand the author just wasn’t ready to write it yet. I love the author I’ve read almost all of her books but Anita started to lack in story so I stopped. I feel like maybe my expectations were too high for the book, so that when it came time to read it I found myself very disappointed. I love that we get to see a new side to Merry and her men but I guess I needed more action it just felt very flat not a lot happened. I also disliked the ending it reminded me of Game of Thrones. I honestly wanted to love the book I just didn’t it feel short on so many levels. At the moment I don’t plan on continuing the series but that could always change Merry has been one of my favorite characters forever. Just because I didn’t love it doesn’t mean you won’t. I feel really bad giving the book a low rating I just struggled through the whole book.
