Ninth House is by Leigh Bardugo. The first book in the fantasy Alex Stern series. Alex is the only survivor of a mass murder in a drug house. In the hospital she is approached by a man who offers her a scholarship to Yale. The catch, she is to become a part of one of the secret societies at the college, Lethe, which polices the magic practiced by the other societies to make sure they obey all the rules and keep their practices under wraps. Then her mentor disappears and a girl is murdered and Alex must discover if any of the societies are involved. You won't be able to wait for the next book in this series, and if you're planning on going to Yale - beware. :)
