“I haven’t killed Naberius Tern. I ate Naberius Tern.”

womens wrongs or whatever but who even cares about babs

FOURTH READ AND I AM REALIZING SOMETHING GODDAMN! what WAS teacher the mould for??? where did you put the people JOHN!

“I have tried to dismantle you, Gideon Nav! The Ninth House poisoned you, we trod you underfoot—I took you to this killing field as my slave—you refuse to die, and you pity me! Strike me down. You’ve won. I’ve lived my whole wretched life at your mercy, yours alone and God knows I deserve to die at your hand. You are my only friend. I am undone without you.”

EVERY FUCKING TIME!

“I put to you before everyone here—that this man was dead before you arrived, by shuttle at the First House, and appeared alive only through deep flesh magic.”
Among the collective mutters, Ianthe Tridentarius’s acid drawl was the loudest: “Well, this is the only interesting thing she’s ever done.”

i want ianthe’s canaan house adventures!!! i know that shit was wild! also pool time :)

“If you want to know what I think… I think that you’re a cavalier worthy of a Lyctor. I want to see that, what you’d become. I wonder if the Reverend Daughter even knows what she has in you?”

“Don’t. It’s very easy to die, Gideon the Ninth… you just let it happen. It’s so much worse when it doesn’t. But come on, chicken. Not right now, and not yet.”

god man the LAYERS of hindsight sadness in the avulsion scene

“The expression on her face was completely alien. Harrowhark Nonagesimus was looking at her with unalloyed admiration.

“But for the love of the Emperor, Griddle,” she said gruffly, “you are something else with that sword.”

“Ninth cavs are necro suitcases. Who’re you?”

hilarious that everyone in the first 1/3rd of the book are like where the fuck did that amish cult get a hot beefcake for a cavalier?

“And then the whole idea became beautiful. The moment Gideon turned her back on it, the House would die. The moment Gideon walked away, it would all disappear like an impossibly bad dream.”

lines that become brutally sad after nona the ninth

“I gave her my whole life,”

rattling the bars of my cage over here. its funny to read their grind-into-the-dirt fight in chapter 2 with the biggest smile on my face

uh so. fourth time around…. happy one year to me finishing gideon and pride month. i have to

“Nothing the Empire touched would remain hers. Very little was hers already.”

“Was the Emperor in bed with you when he asked you to make him immortal?”

i KNEW the bisexuals were crazy in this book! i knew it!!!!

BRAIN SURGERY TIME 🧠🪡

the plot is plotting….

i honestly think every book is better when it has a murder mystery in it. doesnt matter the genre, sci fi, romance, just solve a murder!

personally i dont think i need to read the words “heavy” and “breasts” in a sentence again after this

will try to finish this today but y’all…… its a skip this book is so boring

this ending is so insane

harrow the ninth and the monster baru cormorant form the cinematic universe of highly competent lesbians being knocked down a few pegs due to their traumatic brain injuries. not sure why this keeps happening but im not mad at it
