Emiel’s Reviews > Harrow the Ninth > Status Update

This is getting pretty high up on the "What the fuck is going on scale", from human bone soup to immortal group boning and uhh necrophilia. I am pretty sure the flashback chapters are implanted memories to give Harrow a fake account of what happened in book 1 in order to stop her from remembering Gideon. The absence of Gideon is felt (positively), the moment she inevitably gets brought back I instantly DNF.

What the actual fuck. If the first book was anything like this I would have given it a 4+ Why is the writing, especially in the second person chapters, suddenly fantastic? It also leans way heavier into the weird parts of the first book, abandoning any semblance to generic sff. The dialogue is still horribly written but there is less of it, so I can stomach it (for now). Interested to see where this goes.
