I can definitely say that the rest are pretty good, if not better in some ways. I can’t say anything about the plot without spoiling but Harrow the Ninth is partially written in second person, like “you did this” and “you felt that” and it can be really offputting but once you figure out why those chapters are written that way it’s a really cool twist on the story. Nona the Ninth is also good! I haven’t finished it though, it has a very different tone from the other two books.
oh I meant I haven’t read the other books you suggested.
I will recommend the entire Locked Tomb series to anyone and everyone. Harrow absolutely was a bit weird to get into because of the second-person writing style, but it slowly became obvious why it was in second person throughout the book, and then on subsequent rereads, I’ve actually thoroughly enjoyed the strange perspective it offers.
