A mix of different books that all centre around the “dark academia” genre ✨

Books with main characters (or love interests) that are hissy and rude/prickly but deep down it’s because they are sensitive little cupcakes who are afraid of being hurt and just want some love and affection 🥺

save me Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic save me

Books that embody this song. And ideally will break your heart. Comment a book that you think should go on this list!

Forget everything you know about the golden hour. In these halls, knowledge isn't just power—it's a blood sacrifice, a cursed bargain, or a secret that could tear the stars from the sky. Whether you're navigating the lethal corridors of the Scholomance, deciphering the forbidden linguistics of Oxford’s silver-working, or joining a secret society at Yale that deals in the ghosts of the past, this list is for the scholars who prefer their ink black and their magic dangerous.

Mostly LGBT+

Books with at least one excellent friendship that is core to the novel!

(I decided siblings and friends to lovers don’t count, unless the in the latter one the romance part is SO minor to the plot and the friendship is wayyy more significant.)

Own any translation dictionaries? No? Well, you might want to now.

These books will make you want to keep one by your side, be it for the various Chinese dialects, Latin, Old Welsh, Arabic, and so on that appear as quotes, vocab, or key references ~

Mostly books with characters that gave vibes of being on the spectrum- as someone in it myself. (Some are canon diagnosed)

Books that mention and interpret tarot cards several times (sorry if I’m not accurate, it won’t let me create the list if I don’t add at least 5 books, these are all books I’ve read (or that. other people said have tarot subplots in them) it’s just that for some of them I can’t remember if they had enough tarot mentions to be included in this list, it will be curated over time 💕)
