Ninth House | comment |
Ninth House is a adult dark fantasy novel by Leigh Bardugo, and the first in the Alex Stern series.The book follows unlikely Yale University freshman, Galaxy "Alex" Stern, a homicide survivor and high school dropout who can see ghosts, known as greys. At the university, she is introduced to the eight Houses of the Veil, secret societies that leverage dark occult magic and rituals for the gain of students and alumni.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Alex's full-ride is contingent on her joining Lethe, the ninth house, responsible for monitoring the other houses and containing their power. The story weaves between timeframes: the fall, where Alex arrives at Yale and learns her duties as a member of Lethe, and the winter, as she investigates a murder and its possible connection to the Houses.The book is Bardugo's first adult novel and the content is considerably darker than Bardugo’s previous works. The use of trigger warnings is advised. | |

Crapsack World | |
Ninth House / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Magic is controlled by the elite members of Yale for the gain of students and alumni. Magic wielders are entitled college students who primarily use it for showing off, getting high, and attempted (and successful) rape or alumni who use it to predict the stock market, find creative inspiration, and create binding legal agreements. In addition, ghosts are sad and sometimes violent hangers-on who follow the living around, wishing they were alive. | |

Ninth House / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: While it does have its uses, a large reason why Alex’s life has been so difficult is because she can see ghosts. | |

Accidental Misnaming | |
Ninth House / int_af616e40 | comment |
Accidental Misnaming: Thought the book, Belbalm call's Alex "Alexandra." Alex herself never bothers to correct her until the end. It's actually a subtle hint that Belbalm doesn't have Alex's best interest in mind, since she could have easily found that her name is Galaxy in her records. | |
