#Gideon didn't even kiss any of the cute necromancers or cavaliers wtf. she realistically sacrificed herself for her bully friend as a virgin. now I just have to follow this up with some self-hating bully feeling sorry for herself for absorbing the soul of her only peer/the best character out of the ninth house.
furthermore, the cryptic note and her origins on the ninth planet are left unexplained so now I'm continuing in the hope that the mystery gets resolved instead of just being a useful cliche for a fantasy protagonist who's now effectively dead.

#LockedTomb #NinthHouse

Book 8 is "Ninth House" by Leigh Bardugo.

I should really have read something else first and left this for number nine...

Edit: finished 12th February.

Yep, I think that my chaotic bisexual disaster war criminal #NinthHouse cavalier prisoner-of-war costume came out pretty dang well for this #NonaTheNinth-era larp. I truly could not tell you why I keep being cast as a glamorous & flirtatious center of attention in all these #LockedTomb games, apart from the fact that I beg desperately for these roles in my casting surveys.
We've got another book review for you today, as Zach shares his spoiler-lite thoughts on Leigh Bardugo's Ninth House. This book still waits on Jim's TBR, so he was certainly interested in Zach's takes. We think you will be also. #NinthHouse #Fantasy #SFF https://youtu.be/LsyO2SF6ugM
Ninth House (SPOILER-LITE Review)

So, I really think Leigh Bardugo's books have a disturbing amount of glorifying thinness, with how both Alina Starkov and Alex Stern are repeatedly said to be so thin, "so skinny she might slip straight through the floorboards." (Hell Bent, p.13). Alina is starved, she starves again, her thinness was so emphasised I kid you not I expected her to accomplish some feat of squeezing through a tunnel. But no, it's just part of the character. I really don't like this at all.

I want to survive this world that keeps trying to destroy me.

Quote 2:
All you children playing with fire, looking surprised when the house burns down.

En ce moment je lis la suite de #NinthHouse de #leighbardugo et c’est formidable. Si vous aimez l’urban fantasy avec de la magie et des sociétés secrètes et une héroïne un peu maudite et relatable et une écriture formidable : lisez la série #AlexStern (le t3 est en cours d’écriture il me semble)

(Et si vous préférez un heist dans un univers magique avec de la famille choisie et des personnages merveilleux : lisez Six of Crows. #NoMournersNoFunerals)

This is my first #LeighBardugo novel, and I'm not sure how I feel about it. #NinthHouse takes a long time to get going. There seems to be a lot more telling of the story than any actual showing of it, but that might be down to the amount of world building. It picked about halfway though, when I started to enjoy it more. Overall, I think I was expecting more from such a hyped author, and while I'm interested to see what happens next, I'm not in a hurry to rush out and buy #HellBent yet.
Rereading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo in anticipation of the release of Hell Bent on January 10th. Still loving it. #bookstodon #books #LeighBardugo #NinthHouse #HellBent
