Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
3.0
It took a while for me to get into this book. The beginning was boring and I almost stopped multiple times. But I kept reading because I knew everything would be important eventually.
Then it instantly got intense after 200 pages or so and I thought it would stay that pace, but I was wrong.
Because this book is basically 2 stories in one, it was more annoying to be in the present and everything is happening, but at the same time, the second story isn't popping off the same way.
For instance, we learned about why the FMC is afraid of butterflies, then we shift to the other story and we learned about the MMC's grandfather's shoe factory.
I think the magic is really interesting, but it wasn't enough to keep my interest. I don't think I'd pick up the second book.
