Nona the Ninth (The Locked Tomb Series, 3) by Tamsyn Muir

Fantastic. Amazing. I will die for this series and I will kill for these characters. Seeing the different sides of these characters that I knew were delightful. Nona is just so lovely and Noodle?! Come on I'm in love. And all the twists and turns in this were top-notch. Gods I love this series.

Harrow the Ninth (The Locked Tomb, #2) by Tamsyn Muir

the last 40% of the book when things started to make sense did not make up for the annoying and confusing first 60%. The confusion was necessary for the pay off, but it just should have been a shorter book then.

Gideon the Ninth (The Locked Tomb Series, 1) by Tamsyn Muir

Gideon has a vibrant, immensely enjoyable personality, and excellent chemistry with Harrowhark. The necromancy aspect is detailed and varied both in practice and in theme, but disappointingly the space aspect amounts to one shuttle ride.
Listened to audiobook and very much enjoyed the narrator's efforts.
