it was amazing

bookshelves: recent-favourites, 2024-release, dark-character-study, edelweiss, first-novels, ghosts-and-horror, past-and-present, read-on-kindle, secret-history-esque

I’m planning to reread this later in the year, and will write more then, but for now, I love LOVED it – a stunning spin on ‘dark academia’ tropes, a story that turns itself upside down and shakes everything out. Not only is it a story about privilege and obsession and envy, it gets to the heart of something about why we are so endlessly fascinated by these stories. An instant favourite, to sit next to The Party, The Bellwether Revivals and Engleby.
