Esther reviewed Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir (The Locked Tomb Trilogy)
Madness and grief
4 stars
I never expected a book to successfully gaslight me and I would have expected even less that I would enjoy that.
This book manages not only to describe someones descent into madness from intense grief but it makes you feel it yourself. It fractured so many things you thought you knew from the previous book that you constantly doubt your own memory of those past event, but brings everything together towards the end only to leave you with questions again.
It is also repeatedly hilarious and features one of the best dad jokes of all time.
