Merrow by Ananda Braxton-Smith
2.0
BTW, no mermaids in this book. Despite it being called marrow and there being a mermaid tail on it. There are no mermaids in it.
This story slips in and out of past and present tense so fast you can't keep track. It doesn't even notify you.
The characters aren't developed and they don't feel at all like people. There's no reason for anything they do. I spent most of the book skimming because it was just too many descriptions and not enough actually going on. Very disappointing overall. But I gave it two stars because it's a creative idea, just not well executed.
