Ninth House

first read april 2020
actual rating: 4.5 stars
ok i'm really disappointed that i had this book on my shelf since its release and only decided to pick it up now. this was soooooo good. i loved how dark and mysterious and shrouded in conspiracy this book was. applauding leigh bardugo for her first adult release - can't want to see what's next for alex stern and the house of veil.

reread february 2024
did my reread on audio! i didn't realize how much of this book i'd forgotten. still such a good story and i'm excited to finally read hell bent after buying last year. i don't even know what to expect in the next book. also tbh i zoned out during some of the book and watched this recap by cailey's books on youtube, and she did a fantastic job!
