While I found Ninth House a bit slow to start, it’s still my favorite dark academia book I’ve read. Once I got into it, I fell in love and I remember being so sad when I realized I had to wait for the second book. I think the best part of Leigh’s writing, is I fell in love with a character who we hardly even heard from or saw the entire novel.
