#darkacademia #thesecrethistory #murdermystery #booktube #bookrecommendations #aesthetic - Jak na to + styl
I would like to recommend „Night School“ for everyone who loves Dark Academia books! It has 5 volumes and it just REALLY got me into DA. It has the school/academia setting, the friend group, the mystery, the murder and it’s so so good!
Looking this up!!! Thank you for sharing🥰
All the Robert Langdon books feel Academia to me. There's murder, obsession, the protagonist is a professor... I'm always surprised no one else brings it up in Academia Aesthetic reading lists.
I've actually never read any of his books. Definitely going to!
@@justlanchen You have a treat ahead of you.
So true! And on top of that they are very heavy in mitology, greek, medieval and renaissance art and references!
@@RhebeDraws Yes, exactly!
@@RhebeDraws oh I love it!!
Maybe it's just me not taking this serious enough but I really enjoyed the wizard-series by Terry Pratchett, particularly "The Science of Discworld". The chapters switch between the wizards of Unseen University accidentally creating our universe (the Roundworld) and subsequently studying it, and the actual real science behind each of the "Discworld" chapters. fantastic read to not just idolize academic learning, but actually do some of it and have a good laugh along the way.
We NEED another DA book video!!! Vintage DA book recommendations would be great! Stuff from people like Agatha Christie and Edgar Allen Poe!!
Your videos are the sole inspiration for my tbr list at the moment! 😍
Great recommendations 💕nice to hear about books I haven’t heard of. Loving your channel 🕯️☕️
Yay! That’s always my goal. Hope you check out some of them 🥰
yeyy !! the highlight of my friday 🥳
🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for an alternative list because I feel like alot of youtubers keep recommending the same 5 books lol. So now I have new stuff to read this fall! Yay!
Just ordered Boy Parts as well as another DA Plain Bad Heroines! Looking forward to reading them!
Oh! Plain bad heroines is on my TBR too! Let me know when you finish boy parts!!! Would love to hear your thoughts on it
please please do a video like this for the coquette aesthetic!! 💌🎀
If you love fantasy, „The Ninth House“ by Leigh Bardugo ist the ultimate dark academia read! It‘s set in Yale where Bardugo used to study herself and you can feel her love for the secrets of that old university on every page of the book. It also falls in all the categories listed in this video btw!
I actually read this a long time ago and DNF it 😭 some of the details threw me off. I need to get into more fantasy and try to read it again
This was an amazing list!! 🖤 Thank you. My favorite is Vicious by V.E. Schwab in the Villains series.
So happy you liked it 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Deadly Education is such a good book! Love this Series!
"That is just a murder mystery novel" thank you!!
Thank you for these interesting recommendations - They Never Learn and Boy Parts have just made it to my tbr! You might want to check A Lesson in Vengeance by Victoria Lee - it's a witchy, sapphic DA novel and it ticks all the boxes in your list
Ah I can’t wait for you to read them! Please let me know your thoughts when you are done. I would love to chat about both 🙏🏼🥹 I could not stop talking and thinking about Boy Parts for weeks, the meaning behind it goes so deep
I recommend "Tiny Pretty Things "as a dark academia
the maidens Alex Michaelides I really liked a lot!
SAME!
I was waiting for We Were Villains
Boy parts actually takes places in Newcastle upon Tyne. Not London.
I mean this in a good way but the bird saw all of your greenery and thought the room was still the outside 😂
😭😭😭😭😭
How would you rate Brideshead Revisited on the Dark Academia scale? Or Jane Eyre?
I haven’t finished Brideshead Revisited yet, but so far it’s at 5/5 on the dark academia scale! As for Jane Eyre I would say that it has the Gothic vibes, but it doesn’t hit the dark academia markers for me
What do you think?
Well I definitely think of Jane Eyre as Gothic .... But it has two different schools in it: Lowood being an extremely dark and violent place with a religious obsession where Jane is beaten, starved and made to feel evil. Her friend Helen passively accepts the place and her own death (through neglect which could be considered murder). The second school that she works at after her recovery at Moor House, St.Johns school, is run by her new friend group. Obsession runs through the entire novel - religious obsession, hatred, love, madness - so whilst I don't think it's a 'classic' dark academia book, I think it has some of the elements. There can be such a huge overlap between Gothic and Dark Academia novels, and personally I really like novels that cross genres.
Adding all your recommendations to my TBR list .... They all sound so good.
Do you know of any DA books that take place in like, the early 1900's? I'm not exactly a fan of stuff past 1950, just because for me, DA is always kind of old, and when I imagine it, always takes place somewhere in the UK. It's just the way I think of it. Do you know of any DA books where the setting is early 1900's, UK?
I've just finished The Library Thief which came out recently, it takes place in the English country side, very late 19th century, you have murder investigations, libraries, bookbinding, lots of secrets and an interestingly woven story, I personally loved it!
Mmmm I don’t think My Dark Vanessa is dark academia AT ALL and personally I wouldn’t recommend it to people just because they like dark academia. Especially with the type of content in that book. Great book, not dark academia. Not every book that has a school setting where something bad happens is dark academia. Dark academia is more of an aesthetic.
its just my personal opinion
How you video yourself
I was expecting If We Were Villains, Babel, Ninth House and The Invisible Life of Addie Larue
