February Reading Challenge – Here’s What We’re Reading

by | Jan 30, 2023 | 0 comments

Hello, lovely readers!

We’re back with our February pick for ILVN’s 2023 Reading Challenge!

And we’ve chosen a book by multi-list best-selling author Leigh Bardugo: Ninth House.

Galaxy “Alex” Stern is the most unlikely member of Yale’s freshman class. Raised in the Los Angeles hinterlands by a hippie mom, Alex dropped out of school early and into a world of shady drug dealer boyfriends, dead-end jobs, and much, much worse. By age twenty, in fact, she is the sole survivor of a horrific, unsolved multiple homicide. Some might say she’s thrown her life away. But at her hospital bed, Alex is offered a second chance: to attend one of the world’s most elite universities on a full ride. What’s the catch, and why her?

Still searching for answers to this herself, Alex arrives in New Haven tasked by her mysterious benefactors with monitoring the activities of Yale’s secret societies. These eight windowless “tombs” are well-known to be haunts of the future rich and powerful, from high-ranking politicos to Wall Street and Hollywood’s biggest players. But their occult activities are revealed to be more sinister and more extraordinary than any paranoid imagination might conceive.

Sounds good, right?

Bonus, because book two, Hell Bent, just came out in January, we’re also making Ninth House our Book Club pick for February. So, if you haven’t read it yet, pick it up this month and join us on February 28th for our live discussion.

Double bonus, Leigh Bardugo has a new season of Shadow and Bone releasing in March! So we’re jumping in with both feet for all things Leigh Bardugo. 

Triple bonus, it also fits so many of our challenge prompts: sassy lead, magic, dark, and dark academia.

Which one do we choose? This is the great thing about the openness of our prompts.

Let’s fill in our dark academia graphic because this girl is going to Yale! Plus, it has secret societies and everything that comes with it.  

We’re excited to jump into this book, and we’re hoping you’ll join us in not only reading for the challenge but for our ILVN Book Club live on facebook at the end of the month. Join our list for more information about the book club!
