🎓 6 Dark Academia Recs [YA standalone edition]


Listen Later

February is the shortest, darkest month. So why not go back to the most ominous place I can imagine... high school? ☠️

In this episode, I'm recommending six dark academia books that all take place in high school and are written for a YA audience. 

Tune in to hear how these academic adventures take on the more unsavory aspects of our society — addressing racism, sexism, and classism within the ivory tower and beyond. Then grab the (affiliate) links below to purchase your own copies!
