I had such high hopes for this book. I was so sure I'd like it, because the concept seemed to be right up my alley. Creepy, gothic and with mermaids! But I just can't get into it, and it makes me so sad.
It might've been a me issue, but I just don't understand the foundation of the story. I've been so confused about the supposed time period this takes place in. The magical elements surprised and confused me, because I'd kind of thought there wouldn't really be any besides the mermaids but then there's corpsewights and witches?
I'm also having a hard time with the writing style, it's really tough for me to get through. There's just enough payoff for me to continue.
