i love the dark academia vibes but i think I actually never read a book in this style. So any recommendations where to start?

as im reading this i can appreciate how close to the book the movie stayed. so far there have only been a few changes and im impressed.

If this wasn't an audiobook I would have DNF'd by now, because honestly wth his happening. Every character is unlikeable - I have a high tolerance for unlikeable characters and often find it makes things more interesting, but this is next level. Cathy is pathetic, Ren is heartless and flat, and the men are awful caricatures of toxic masculinity. If there's a message in here somewhere, I've yet to find it.

hilarious that Voldemort was a Slytherin 🐍

I was intimidated going into this after reading some of the non-spoiler posts, especially with it being YA & my current trend of DNFing them because I cannot connect with the main characters (I’m getting old). I don’t know if the main character, Vis, being male is also making a difference, because it’s a POV that I don’t run across often enough. Either way, I am enjoying the world building and I have questions that will hopefully be answered as I continue. My fingers are crossed that I continue to enjoy it!
