Already very enjoying this, main complaint is that the text in the paperback is a bit small and my eyes are straining just a bit BUT this is super interesting so far and the world is very complex. I am really intrigued to learn more about how the 9th differs from the other houses and why Harrow is such a raging asshole all the time. I have no doubt time tell 😎

While I am super intrigued by this, at the first few pages I am feeling very out of my depth. Also, not sure if every version is like this but the speech doesn’t seem to have quotations? Ever?? Which is hard for me to process. I will persist, maybe not now, but I will eventually.

“This pestilence cooked away pretense and showed people’s souls, as surely as it eventually showed their bones.”
Haunting, gothic, medieval, biblical, ecclesiastical horror. And yet also loving and thoughtful and heart wrenching. This has moved into my top reads of forever.

The girlies have picked this for our cliterature club read and I am BORED thus far. Quite possibly because I am listening to the audio book and old lady voice is boring me as well as all the posh accents. I swear I am listening but I dont feel like I have a grasp at all on what is going on. Chapter twelve seems too far in for me to not be hooked but I recognize I am always slow to get into audiobooks. I will persist because of the bookclub but bleh I am ready for it to be my turn to choose.
