Somehow this book was anxiety inducing & comforting, simultaneously. Overall, I really enjoyed it & would recommend it. The atmosphere was knitted wonderfully while not taking up too much of the word count. The characters stood alone well but shined brighter when together. The lead, Oliver, was not a perfect golden boy- instead he was ordinarily flawed & genuine. Which I’d argue is hard to find in the Dark Academia genre. The plot follows dutifully to many other plots in this genre, but the ending is pretty flat tbh.

Issue One: The beginning of the Comic Book Reader
Have you ever thought about reading comic books but were unsure where to begin? Is the deep dive into the world of Superheroes daunting & confusing? Would you rather face off with Villains instead of deciding where to begin your comic-reading journey? Well, allow me to be your guide to help you ease into the ever-changing, action-packed, spandex-wearing world of Comic Books! Every comic in the list can be read without any prior knowledge of the characters or their worlds.

So… I’ve never read a synopsis of this book or anything like, it’s only ever been suggested to me. It’s been suggested bc one of my fav aesthetics/themes/sub-genres to read is Dark Academia & this is always a top recommendation (after the obvious ones). Tbh I am pretty excited to read it, since it’s been recommended so often!
Is this a bad book to start blind or am I gonna be okay?

Yesterday I finished a book & spent almost 12+ hrs trying to figure out the book I had planned to read next. Puzzled & puzzled the entire time UNTIL I remembered the “Plan” tab on here & there it was, the next book I planned on reading. Just wanted to share something I loved abt this app! Something I didn’t know I liked or needed, until I did 😅 Here is a reminder to use that tab if you haven’t yet, bc it is a time saver! On a related note, what’s is something on this app that you love that was unexpected?

I know we all love reading, but do you ever feel "burnt out" from it? Like, unmotivated? I planned to read today, but I felt so exhausted that I wound up rewatching Hunger Games instead 😅
