Gideon the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir

4.0

A fun romp through a haunted house on a dying planet - with bonus skeletons!

I had a feel small quibbles:

- Sometimes it was hard to keep track of everyone given the way names and titles were used interchangeably
- The persistent use of ‘ass’ and ‘butt’ felt out of step with the mood of the book.
- Strange use of ‘emasculate’ more than once in relatively close proximity.

Overall though, I thought this was eminently readable and pleasantly different. I don’t know if I’m sufficiently engaged to read the rest of the series, but I had a good time regardless.
