Harley Merlin 8 Harley Merlin and the Challenge of Chaos

This book, to me, was just a space filler to get more money before the last book. It was awful. I am getting bored with Harley, she is super powerful but as dumb as a stump and always boo hoo about everything. The only bonus was Finch and his character development. I find him so much more a hero than Harley, if it weren’t for his character development, Id have just quit reading this book.

I was very disappointed in this book. The whole series is just about ruined for me. I am the heroine of books that I read, not the villain. I had to skip all of the Katherine chapters. There had to be a better way to tell the story. I don’t know now if I’ll finish the series . Not if Katherine is writing the book.

In the beginning I was really enjoying this series. After reading a few of the books in this series. I found a pattern in the style this author uses that I find hard to accept. Where I no longer enjoy. Besides the heroine in this series, the reader who is reading this story needs to win some of the small battles, not just the big one at the end. You have the heroine at a major disadvantage and every time she gets ahead a little you have the Evil Aunt right there to take it away. And it puts the heroine back at ground zero.
I’m almost at the end of book 8. As per your writing style. You took that small victory of her getting to read those hidden pages away from her. That was the final straw that broke my patients with your writing style. I also was ready to read book 9 and I just ordered book 10. But after reading about the events that happen in the infirmary. I cancelled the order for book 10. And trashed the books I have.
From this day, I will not follow or read anything you write ever again.

I like the story line most of the plot but it just seems the authors are one of these that says ‘well your getting a discount price so I’m going to take a 4 or 5 book series and stretch it out to 9 books. And in the end I’ll add a 10th just to see if they are gullible enough to pay it out. Maybe if we bought 7 or 8 of the 8 to 10 book series we get the box set price. ( even if its refunded after the complete series is out) idk just spitballing here. But it seems this series could have been wrapped up a book or so ago. It’s not like your limited on number of pages.

I am glad that I finished this book, but it was tough to read until I got to the last third where it finally really picked up and got interesting and moved the plot line forward. It was frustrating that most of the book, the big reveal of the last book was completely unknown to everyone but the reader. It was fun briefly that only I knew, but it got old fast especially with Katherines POV. The chapters from Katherines POV were just awful, irritating and completely unnecessary. This whole series has been stretched out into too many books which is a shame because I REALLY have enjoyed reading this series up until this book for the most part. I will push forward reading the conclusion of the story because I do want to know what happens.
