Morrigan's Cross by Nora Roberts
2.0
This book was recommended to me by a friend who says this is her favorite series of all time.
Now maybe that was too much hype because I was fairly disappointed in it. The concept is quite fun, set in Ireland with a mashup of characters out of different times and place with a shared destiny to save the world from the evil Vampiric mother Lilith.
I’m big into fantasy with some romance thrown in, but the relationships seemed very forced to me. It was like: here’s 3 men and 3 women, obviously we have to pair them all up as lovers (I haven’t finished the series so maybe I’ll be surprised but that’s where I think the story is headed). I think things just moved too fast and there wasn’t really any development.
The writing style was also difficult for me because you’d be reading from two different perspectives from one sentence to the next and it was often frustrating to sort through.
Seems like this book may be one of those that just happens to be polarizing and you might love it or you might hate it
