pickI have this marked as read on Goodreads, but I remember absolutely nothing about it, so I‘ve been rereading it. Wow, it‘s a trip. I must have marked it as read by mistake, I don‘t think I could forget this! I am enjoying the audiobook immensely.
pickMagic at Yale! Alex, a druggie who barely survived a murderous rampage, is recruited to go to Yale so that during her spare time she can go undercover at the Ninth House—Lethe. Not because she‘s brilliant but because of her unique ability to see ghosts. Lethe helps the other 8 houses during their ritual magic ceremonies by keeping ghosts at bay, from interfering with the magic. But Alex is a girl from the streets so she approaches her job quite ⬇️
“By the time Alex managed to get the blood out of her good wool coat, it was too warm to wear it.”

Reading this for #authoramonth @Soubhiville
Spring weather is finally here!! This evening I'm starting Ninth House for #authoramonth while I munch on some aged cheddar cheese on baguette with a side of olives. I'm not really sure if I'll like this book - horror just isn't for me - but I'm going to give it a try.

so-soI always enjoy a little mystery with my historical romance, although I didn‘t quite feel the chemistry between the two main characters.

panThe book starts with a lot of info dumping. It takes about 200 pages before anything happens. I kept going because I've heard how amazing it was.
For me, it did not improve. There was too much narration, hardly any dialogue, and I was bored.

Okay read but I'm just not into this sort of book. Not a horror fan. I also kept thinking it copied a movie I'd seen about Skull and Bones (which I also didn't really enjoy very much).

pickI bought this book years ago to read at the airport. Sadly, I lost the copy, and the hope is ever find such a unique book ever again. Yet, with luck, I got to reread it! Cantero is a genius. Characters encounter the traditional haunted house inherited. Including visions and those who locate the original instances. Codexes and Help (a good doggo). An epistolary novel to reread for details. Unfolds like the secrets of what is beyond.
