2022 book 94

 Garth Nix's Lirael

Ok, I liked this one much more! The protagonists are a girl being raised in the clan of seers, and I got into her story pretty quickly when she starts training to be a magical librarian and then creates a magical dog (yeah!), and then the son of the woman from the first book, who is reluctant to follow his mother's footsteps (but has other interesting talents). I will say that some things are answered/resolved, mainly involving the main characters, but the novel definitely feels like a part 1, because none of the big plot points are addressed, which is weird? A-.
