    is it premature of me to be wanting a darlington & alec romance in ninth house. i LOVED the book and don’t mind it existing with no romance but idk i see potential there and i would... like to see it... perhaps
    the book has no inkling of romance yet here i am thirsting... ANYWAYS i’m glad to see another person who enjoyed ninth house! i love leigh’s writing so it was easier for me to like but i saw so many negative and conflicting reviews and people saying they DNF’d. it was kinda confusing bc of the info dumps but i let myself cruise through those and fell in love with alex’s strong character, the intrigue of the secret societies, and the way leigh wrote paranormal beings. my only complaint is that of every single book i’ve ever read, this one i’d say needs a trigger warning the most. there’s some stuff in there that was.. wow. i’m so sad we won’t be getting a sequel until at least 2022

    I read the Darkfever series years ago, and I had to stop because I didn't like the way it was going. It went darker and darker, but I was a teenager so I guess it was too graphic for me at that moment.

    I think the issue people have with the inheritance cycle is how it comes off as Lord of the Rings rip off, with very close characters and names. But...even though I see that I, as a LotR lover, still enjoyed it myself[at least the first book].
