I just love the way you talk . It feels like something so so mesmerizing. I can sit and listen to you talking about books , books and books . The little emphasis you give are so cool .
I’m glad to see a video on books utilizing the dark academia aesthetic. It’s my favorite aesthetic in suspenseful fiction, especially for autumn reading.
Girl I have to say, I'm going through the most difficult times in my marriage and almost the only thing that help me are your videos 🥺 thank you so much
@@alexandraroselyn You are so welcome. Yes feeling so much better Thank you. House full here and everyone got sick. 6 kids and myself and the hubby. An 3 fur dog babies and a bearded dragon lol.
They Never Learn was a good book, but didn't knock my socks off. However...In My Dreams I Hold A Knife was EXCELLENT! The description doesn't do it justice. Total 5 star novel!
I'm reading Babel right now and it's pretty extraordinary. The only thing that might turn off some readers is that it goes HARD into etymology and nothing everyone is a word nerd like me. 🙂 I'm fairly sure that you're going to love it!
I'm so glad that you've ordered The Society for Soulless Girls. I don't think that book gets enough hype. It has by far the most dark academia vibes that I've read in a book in a long while. I hope you love it! As always, I loved this video. I love watchng videos where I get to hear reviews of books I've read and recommendations of books I've not read. Love all your videos but especially the ones with the spooky vibe...and the reading vlogs...and the....💀💀💀
Omg so stubbled on your channel I absolutely love your personality so genuine and beautiful person subscribed instantly love your content I am addicted to the written word can’t stop reading and your recommendations are awesome 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for doing an updated video on Dark Academia books, I'm going to get most of these, I love reading these in the fall and winter seasons! It does seem as if dark academia is becoming a genre and I love it!
What a lovely video! I'm currently reading Neon Gods by Katee Roberts. I'm debating whether to read Frankenstein or to re-read Dracula next. Happy reading, all!
Read Frankenstein and loved it! Found Mary Shelley and Mary Wollensteincraft even more interesting so I bought their autobiographies! This and From here to eternity will be my go to spooktober books
I've read Olivie Blake's fan fiction for years. She's an incredible author. I'm one section away from finishing The Atlas Six & it's definitely hardcore dark academia- curious to see how it's going to end and how the next one will tie in!
I can't wait to watch your video later today once I am done with all of my work. I love all of your videos so much! You are literally my favorite booktuber on RUclips! 💕
I saw a lot of people rating Summer Sons on the lower end, but I thought it was incredible and so atmospheric! Thanks for all of the great recommendations!!
I think you could like "When all the girls are sleeping" by Emily Arsenault, it has similar vibes as "A Lesson in Vengeance" but with more ghost vibes 👌 I've "In my dream I hold a knife" and "The Society for Soulless Girls" in my TBR and whenever you talk about it even when you haven't read it you keep hyping me!! Adding a few from your recs to my wishlist now, thank you always for such videos!
💀 I want to read all of these omg 🖤 one that I want to read is called Autumn of the Grimoire, it just came out last week! I don’t think it’s dark academia but it says it has dark secrets and I thought you’d be intrigued by the title as I was 😊
Just added a few to my list, thank you for the recommendations! I also really liked the Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo and Legendborn by Tracy Deonn, and Middlegame by Seanan McGuire.
Thank you so much for all these recommendations, Lexi ! I really wanna get into dark academia books this fall and hope that I can get to read The Witch Haven💀💀
I had a long day at work, so I couldn’t watch this when I wanted. I love all of your videos, but my absolute faves are these fall ones! These recommendations are fantastic!!! 📚 🍁 💀
Thanks for the recommendations, all those books sounds good. Perfect for the spooky/fall season.I think for the most part Sirens and Muses, Witch Haven, The Atlas Six and The Society for the Soulless Girls are def in my tbr.
Hello Lexi! I think this channel is amazing. Do you have book journal recommendations? I thought I found one in one of your videos,however, now I can’t.
I'm pretty sure you've already read it / talked about it but I just finished The Maidens and oh my gosh; it was incredible, the dark academia vibes were incredible, the only reason that I'm glad I didn't read it sooner is so that I don't have to wait as long until his next book comes out (I read The Silent Patient in August)
Love all the book recommendations! I can't wait to give dark academia a try! Love your videos so much, a joy to listen to and fantastic recommendations ❤️
Girl you are hilarious…I love watching your videos and my book wishlist being over 100 books long is all your fault!! 😂🤓 ….last month I started watching recommendation videos and you were one of the first RUclipsrs I started watching regularly. So far I read a little over 30 books…currently I’m on Into theDrowning Deep by Mira Grant….I really enjoy this book !! Sending you hugs and love !! 🌺🌸💜💐🌷
I'm getting scared of clicking on your videos because I alwayssss end up with books in my shopping basket 😅 love your videos and the autumn vibes and obviously the recommendations are on point 🧡
I have been binging your videos for the past month and I've probably added like 50+ books go my TBR list.😅 Totally worth it though. I love your channel! You have such a sweet, charming personality with an infectious smile!🤗🖤
If anyone needs a REALLY good dark academia with a little twist, you should try The Starless Sea! It is a phenomenal book full of different stories missed opportunities, love and doors that lead to an underground world ✨
Yay! Dark academia! Bring it!!! Is Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo dark academia? I think you've mentioned it before, but the 2nd book, Hell Bent, in the duology is coming out in early 2023. I'm so excited!!! 💀☠️
I’ve been getting so into dark academic books 😍 I love this video! Your outfit is adorable and I’m obsessed with you background. My Dearest, Darkest is one of my favorite books I’ve read this year! I hope you love it. The atmosphere is amazinggg and I love the horror in it. It reminds me of The Craft! I love In My Dreams I Hold a Knife as well! They Never Learn is one of my favorite books of ALL TIME!
Ace of spades is an amazing book, but definitely search up the trigger warnings, it deals with very heavy topics. Honestly it’s one of the best books that I’ve ever read.
What a list! I want to read EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE. Please keep me away from a bookstore right now. The library is my friend in this situation. ☕️📚📖🌂🌳🏫👩🏻🎓
There are so many books here that I am interested in. I actually have only read one of this list which is The Atlas Six, which I do hope that you enjoy but personally I found it lacking. I am currently reading Babel here though, which I am enjoying. I also want to read The Mary Shelley Club, and I also personally enjoyed The Furies by Katie Lowe a great deal.
I definitely want to read all the recs you include here. Dark academia is such a THING! I just want to mention one thing.. people don't usually think of the classic Agatha Christie novels when they think of Dark Academia, but I think 2 definitely have that vibe. Cat Among the Pigeons, (a murder at a private school for girls in England in the 1930s, and Hickory Dickory Dock, about several students living in an off campus boarding house. Same time frame. And (I guess I'm mentioning two things) there are 2 TV shows, both on Prime/Britbox that are dark academia-ish. Inspector Morse series, murder mysteries that take place in Oxford, many involving students and academic life, and its prequel series Endeavor, about a young Inspector Morse. (1960s Oxford) Both shows are excellent and so atmospheric. Oh, and 💀. :)
I'm loving your autumnal videos so far! I bought the Disney Dreamlight Valley due to your recommendations video and I am OBSESSED! I'm also looking forward to getting Cozy Grove soon!💀👻
💀💀Great list of books. I don’t read as much as I would like, but I do watch a lot of television, so my dark academia recommendations are television series. The Librarians is a about a group of librarians trying to contain magic; Warehouse 13 is a favorite and is about a group of people who have to contain and collect powerful artifacts from destroying the world and Relic Hunter is about an archeology professor who is also a relic hunter. Relic Hunter is kind of dated, but still entertaining; basically if you like The Mummy and/or National Treasure you’ll like Relic Hunter. A few movies that no one mentions is Maurice(1987), Mary Shelley(2017), The Theory of Everything(2014), School Ties(1992) and Master(2022).
Cannot wait to read some of these! I enjoyed your new recommendations (especially since I may or may not have watched your previous DA recs multiple times). Thanks again, another awesome video! PS, love the British accent 😆
Another great video and exactly what I needed today! The whole aesthetic of this video was perfect 💀 🍁. Thanks for the recommendations; off to go look into some of them.
💀💀💀 A Deadly Education which is the first of the Scholomance series By Naomi Novik is a pretty good Dark Academia Vibe. Also Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo!
I am fresh out of high school and have started my first year of university. I usually read ya but I want to get more into adult as I find ya gets repetitive sometimes. What adult dark academia book do you recommend from your video?

I'm reading Babel right now and it's pretty extraordinary. The only thing that might turn off some readers is that it goes HARD into etymology and nothing everyone is a word nerd like me. 🙂 I'm fairly sure that you're going to love it!
Sleepwalking is one of the best books I've read this year. You should definitely move it to the top of your TBR!
I recently finished reading Summer Sons and I'm still not over it😩 One of the best reads of my year!!

The Witch Haven I am OBSESSED! Plus The Altas Six 🖤👻📚🎃🎃👻🖤🖤👻📚🎃👻🍂🍂🍁🍁📖🍃🖤🖤👻📚📚🧡🧡🖤👻🎃🎃🎃👻🖤🖤🧡🖤👻📚📚🍂🍂🍁🍁📖🍃🍃🧡🖤👻📚📚👻👻🖤🧡🖤🖤📚🎃🎃📚
It was fun seeing the beginnings of Dark Academia on Tumblr. Love the fact that Tik-Tok increased its popularity and audience.
No worries, you will love Babel!
Oh my...more books for my Fall TBR! 💀
This is great! Thank you so much for all the recommendations 💀
Your intro arts are so cute! Do you make them or is there an editor who makes them??
Babel - definitely. It is a "next day" book - you keep thinking about it the next day . . . and the next day . . .
Definitely agree!!
As soon as you said roommates, I thought of that clip, And Then You Played It!! 🙌 Love it!
I think you could like "When all the girls are sleeping" by Emily Arsenault, it has similar vibes as "A Lesson in Vengeance" but with more ghost vibes 👌
I've "In my dream I hold a knife" and "The Society for Soulless Girls" in my TBR and whenever you talk about it even when you haven't read it you keep hyping me!! Adding a few from your recs to my wishlist now, thank you always for such videos!
