9 stars for the tomb and for all that was lost.
not as atmospheric as the first, but still an excellent read that asks and answers some fun questions
The 2nd person parts of this are really off-putting. I understand at the end why, but going from the 1st book to this. It becomes really hard to get into this book.

Audiobook. No idea what I just listened to, but I think I liked it?
Finished *Harrow The Ninth* by Tamsyn Muir. This is a hard book to rate. I think the things the book does well it does REALLY well, and the things I didn’t like I REALLY didn’t like. I’ll start with the latter; I couldn’t stand the pacing. I got the gimmick of ||Harrow hallucinating what happened in the last book|| basically immediately and it really overstayed its welcome. It’s intentional I know but the tendency to use ultra specific terminology and archaic words mostly just ruined any momentum I might have reading it, and the anatomy lessons every 20 words or so got VERY grating. I thought the actual plot of the book was a big lowercase ‘fine’ even with how much Muir dances around what characters are actually saying or what is actually happening in the scene. I liked the sibling dialogue between the Lyctors, it felt VERY real to what people sound like when they’ve known each other for a very long time. I enjoyed Harrow’s attempts at ego saving, and was surprised how much more I liked ||Gideon|| in this one, I guess the short time made it tolerable. 6/10 if I had to rate, could be much better if the ||Harrow/Gideon|| reconstitution happened earlier so we could skip a few chapters of the most wrathful egotistical chihuahua suffering.
