Spooky smut. Thats what this book was and i was here for it! The book itself is gorgeous with quote pages at the beginning of each chapter. I thought the story was really good and it had me locked to see what would happen next. The chapters are broken up between Corvina and Vad which i loved! I don‘t want to give anything away but you should definitely read it if spooky smut is your jam!

Fell to sleep while reading this, and awoke with the song, Bring Me To Life by Evanescence blasting (not literally). I guess my subconscious has found a song match for this book 😂, and here my waking self has been considering something more classical 🤔. Been ages since listening to this...

I guess “ghost“ wins even over Batman. This book has held my interest over all other current reads...bewitching (so far)!

Already reading four books at the moment, don't need to start another book when my limit is normally three.

Then I decided to take a peek inside this beauty before adding it to my bookshelf.

I understand colors, purple invokes mystique, framed by black increases that mystery. Yet I have allowed this book to put its spell on me 🧐. 👇

AnnCrystal I felt like I opened something antique and magical when I went to peek inside.

It began with one page, just to get a preview (you all probably know how that goes 😂).

This does have a reader warning, which I always appreciate. I know to be prepared to jump scenes if necessary.

Hope the story is as good as its packaging...

I didn't really enjoy this one.
It is like the show Wednesday with spicy scenes.
I felt there was a lot of build-up for the mystery surrounding the school and the murders, but it was wrapped up really fast. I probably wouldn't recommend this.

I know this one has gotten a lot of mixed reviews so i thought i would give it a read. Its almost 400 pages so if it‘s as badly written and edited as the reviews say, then i‘ll bail early!

Oof. Whoever gave this one the green light, especially the weirdly giant font on the first page of each new chapter and the awkward AI art, ought to have a good long think about what they‘ve done.

I loved it.
Like Wednesday, the Addams family TV show, but with spice 🌶️🌶️🌶️
Going to start reading it again to see what clues I missed.

Dark academia, supernatural occurrences, and a gothic atmosphere combine together with some very spicy romance to create a fun read! I loved Corvina and her backstory, especially her relationship with her mother, and Vad is a strong, forbidden, dark, romantic character. I loved the multiple references to other gothic authors (especially Poe), and the images throughout the book added to the whole experience.

I had to add this book to the Litsy database, but please don‘t take that as an endorsement.😂

I needed a #DarkAcademia book for #Booked2022 and since I‘ve read most of the great ones, took a chance with a book that Booktok actually seems to think fits that category. While it is dark, and at a school, it‘s also ridiculous and just not well written at all. Must get myself on a better side of Booktok.

⭐️⭐️

JamieArc I still need to complete that prompt. What are some of your favorites/recommended for Dark Academia? 2y
sprainedbrain @JamieArc I really loved The Secret History (Tartt), Ninth House (Bardugo), and Babel (Kuang). I‘ve seen this book on lists of dark academia as well and I really liked it: 2y
JamieArc @sprainedbrain Thanks! The tagged looks really good! 2y

sprainedbrain @BarbaraTheBibliophage haha, totally my fault for choosing this one! I actually had a different one planned but fell for Booktok hype. 😜 2y
LeeRHarry I have this one and have only heard bad things since I got it ….it may be going in the charity bag sooner than I thought 🤔 2y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @sprainedbrain Ahhh …the socials…that‘ll do it! 2y
