Reading Dark Academia Books, a cosy autumnal vlog 🕯 🍂✨

[@thebooknivore]

Edinburgh literally even through a camera is straight up fall vibes!! But also, Tibs pulling the puzzle apart and YEETING it straight off the table is the best thing to exist 🤣

[@amandaconaway9675]

Omg. The second I put my phone aside to be productive at work again is when I got a notification about this video. HA.

[@latasharenay3890]

Tiberius is so cute. The way he just tore it apart like enough of this human love me.

[@AbiofPellinor]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who didn't vibe with Plain Bad Heroines!

[@wronggeometry]

I found it so boring. Went for over 300 pages hoping it'd get better, then read some reviews and thought better of it.

[@bethmw28]

Same! I didn't understand the love for it at all 😂 I was bored at all times 😩

[@muddywatersbookshelf7758]

“It just looks like I am burning in hell”. Ha ha! Love your sense of humor!

[@BooksNest]

I totally feel you on the guessing plots front. My family won’t let me say who I think did it in a thriller/mystery because 95% of the time I’m right and ruin it for them 😂

[@pepekostelletos8212]

🍂🍄loved the vibes, the setting and the editing! it was really a great cozy autumnal vlog 🕯📖

[@bby.kaylamarie]

Your kitty destroying your puzzle than looking back at you like mom love me😅❤️ so cute Also your B roll is sooo beautiful so different than America😍

[@traceyvince258]

great vlog omg tibs and the puzzle hilarious and the look he gave after he is one lil shit then getting the hump because you weren't pandering to him. love it that your back xxxx

[@carrieicanhasbooks]

🕯🍂 have I requested most of these books from my library, why yes yes I have

[@rachelpurpura5605]

I read Hex after seeing you talk about it and I really liked it! It was angry (especially angry women) and powerful. Not my typical read because it was very poetic but it was great

[@brandim1230]

Love the pumpkin haul 🎃🧡🕯️

[@RescuesandReads]

I grew up reading mysteries and thrillers and still today they are my top genre so very little surprises me. However, I don't mind if a book doesn't shock me if it's entertaining, the characters are great and the journey is good. The "twists" themselves might not be shocking, but the way they get there sometimes can be

[@demeldapenkitty7937]

Absolutely loving that cat jumper. Tibbs is just the best! Big fan of dark academia so loving this one.

[@emilyb493]

Ahhh Tibs, what an absolute legend 😹 🍂🕯🍂🕯

[@passmethatbook]

I really loved the vibes of this video! And added a few more books to my massive tbr. This was excellent and I look forward to your next one! 🕯️ 🍂 🕯️

[@amberc.7132]

Loved all of it! 🕯🕯

[@Moonymariam]

loved this!🕯🍂🖤

[@caseysacco]

The Night Villa by Carol Goodman is another great one - highly recommend!

[@ItsVidaK]

love the books but that treacle tart with custard is making me drool a bit

[@kimreese3530]

Thanks for taking us around Edinburgh. Dean Village is such a calming place.

[@swedish_malin]

Love the Edinburgh views! The mushrooms really bring a vibe as well. 😃 I'll be adding They Never Learn and the Lake book to my TBR!

[@wandering0wonderland]

Happy -almost- Halloween!🕯🍁

[@Shella132001]

Great vlog. Now I have a few more books added to the tbr. Loved the b roll, just got back from Edinburgh last week. I already miss it.

[@latasharenay3890]

The Last Housewife is the perfect book for femail rage. I loved it so much. I gasped and laughed a little at the end of it. I think you would love it.

[@latasharenay3890]

I know how to spell female lol I don't know what happened there 😂

[@Ms.SpookyNerd]

Great vlog 📚😎💯👍

[@meganlove5240]

🕯️🎃🍂 As a Teessider I'm gunna have to listen to The Society of Soulless Girls. Loved the vlog! Edinburgh in autumn is stunning 🍂🎃🕯️

[@ChemicalPenguinn]

Dark academia's one of my favourite subgenres!!! Also Edinburgh in the autumn time looks stunning, I've got to visit one day!

[@sakurahan91]

LOVE the orange French Fancies. Have you read Incubus by Carole Goodman? It’s a trilogy. I really enjoyed it! 🕯️ I have Plain Bad Heroines and In My Dreams I Hold A Knife! Next year I’ll get to them!!!

[@dg_reads]

Reminding me that I had bumped Lake of Dead Languages up my TBR so I probably should actually pick it up!

[@LouisaWordsIWriteCrazy]

Just pausing to say, my mom gets annoyed when I read around her because I make sounds. If a book is particularly gripping, sometimes I grip by chin, and I've given myself bruises because of that. Ah, reading is just so much fun! And yeah that you enjoyed They Never Learn. It wasn't on my radar until it was one of two options in a readathon, and I really enjoyed it as well!

[@lindsayjardine3376]

Loved this vlog x

[@TheLostReader]

I love your cat shirt.

Tiberius is wicked love him😂

[@angelamccollister]

I used to put 3D puzzles together and many of the pieces had bite marks. Lol

[@talentedreads]

Loved this reading vlog and def added more to my TBR :) One dark academia that I recently came across that I don't think has gotten much hype (maybe that's for a good reason lol) is The Bequest by Joanna Margaret. I recently bought this, haven't read it yet but I'M DYING TO!

[@leeh4343]

You’ve made me want to reread The Lake of Lost Languages - it’s been an age since I read it so I can’t remember much of the plot but know I loved it 😊

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

I’ve heard such good things about plain bad heroines 👀 I loved temper by Layne Fargo so I really want to read They Never Learn!

Reading plain bad heroines now and starting to feel the same. So nervous to actually finish it! 😅

[@cuppa.books.]

Ok, you've convinced me I'll read They Never Learn and The Lake of Dead Languages 🕯🕯

[@elkstruttermom]

[@bethmw28]

Plain bad heroines was my most disappointing read of last year - I was bored throughout, tired of the characters and I didn't understand either why there's multiple timelines or why it's so long 😂 it was a sad time for me 😩

[@bethmw28]

I've wanted to read They Never Learn for ages so I'm glad you're loving it 😁

[@autumnwonderland8863]

🕯🕯🕯🕯

[@Sara75277]

Curently reading If We Were Villains and generally loving all the dark academia vibes🕯

[@teresarollen7425]

I have read They Never Learn and loved it. Have you read the Sweet Pea series and about a woman serial killer? It is really good. I am currently reading extreme horror books. I just finished Survivor by J. F. Gonzalez and Lovesick by Jon Athan. These books have a lot of body horror and are meant to shock you and disturb you. They are not for the squeamish Make sure you check trigger warnings before reading. It is weird to say that I like these books but they are so wild that you can't help reading to see what is going to happen next. 🕯

If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha Had one of the most well-rounded explorations of female emotion, femininity standards, and sexism culture that I've read in a very long time. Highly recommend. Female rage included

[@daphneesorelcoupal4631]

If you haven't read it, I suggest Truly Devious !

[@elizabethbrown6478]

Just wanted to let you know Codie, that your video didn't pop up in my subscription feed. :( Stupid algorithm. Luckily I saw it on my home page

[@meljstephan]

I felt underwhelmed by They Never Learn because I just didn't care about Carly's storyline, so half the book felt wasted
