What, the fuck, is happening. There is so much to keep track of! And now this timeless room, possibly the room of the original second house Lycter? Also, I can't help but notice that the Ninth did NOT ask permission from Teacher to enter this locked room like they ought to...

I finally have a good grasp on each house:
II- pompous military assholes with a superiority complex
III- The rich kids, with a very weird dynamic between the three of them
IV - Clearly more competent than their age suggests but seem to be good kids.
V - DEAD (sobs)
VI - The nerds, basically the Ravenclaw of Dominicus
VII - Weird af but seem to be fine
VIII - Priest class, absolutely the worst

Why the fuck is Gideon being so obedient?? What did she see the night Harrow killed her parents, and why the fuck is the seventh so mysterious?? So many questions...
Oh and why does everyone other than Gideon seem to know each other, but simultaneously deny they do?? Wtf? It really feels like Gideon is uniquely singled out, but it could just be our perspective...

Ch 15-16:
Okay!! The girls are getting along, we're even seeing sparks of romance perhaps?? Also they fucking mind melded which one could argue is the purest form of intimacy.
I wonder if Harrow will be jealous seeing how Dulcinea looks at Gideon...
Side note (spoiler warning):
Why did they have to kill my favorite cavalier?? RIP Magnus the Fifth :(
(And Abigail)

Okay!! Stuff is finally picking up! We got down to the abandoned lab, with BOTH girls, fought a horrifying bone construct, I'm definitely hooked now!

I'm definitely intrigued by the myriad of characters but honestly having a bit of trouble keeping them all straight. I should probably check out that document Morgan sent me that (I think) has an outline of the characters.

Oh wow, things are really picking up now! We have arrived at the First House and received the setup for the story!
The description of the First House was beautiful and Teacher is the most suspicious character thus far. That said, I love the "Idk what you need to do, you might die, and you can't leave - but have fun!!" attitude.

I more or less understand what is happening, though the language is difficult at times and the complexity of the world building is a little staggering. Nonetheless I am very curious to continue!

I have NO idea what's happening, really. But The Lady of the Ninth is scary in the creepy princess kind of way - and she can animate the dead, literally!!

Well, this is my first time reading a book from a non American author, and I can TELL. It'll take some getting used to, but for me it kinda adds to the normal but yet alien vibe I get for the world of The Locked Tomb.
So far I LOVE Gideon, she's hilarious. And the world is very intriguing. I was surprised to find out it's a spacefaring civilization!
