On my first read I had given this book 5âď¸, but upon reading this again Iâm lowering it down to 4âď¸
đ¨You NEED to check the TWs for this one. I appreciate that Bardugo went all in when it comes to the adult content in this.
Even if I was reading this for the second time I still was surprised at times with how things went. Bardugo really crafted an interesting world of magic and some interesting characters.
Yet, I think that what Ninth House lacked was that little something that originally made me fall in love with Six of Crows. While Alex had that âgrittyâ vibe, it just fell flat at times. Alex, who could have been so much more. While Bardugo kept poking at Alexâs potential, it just never materialised. đ
Iâm hoping that Hell Bent keeps Darlington POVs as I found them refreshing. Iâm also really hoping to see way more of Dawes in the next book.
Overall a great book âşď¸, and it did help make me excited about Bardugoâs work again after the big F that The Familiar was for me.
