Past And Future Reads: December 2022.

Past And Future Reads: December 2022. Wrap up for December.

Happy New Year! I cannot believe we’re already in 2023.This year has had it’s ups and downs, but one thing I’m proud of is how much I’ve read! In 2022 I’ve read a whopping 300 books! Which is the most I’ve ever read since I started tracking in like 2015? Or something like that. Today’s post is going to be a fairly long one, so grab a cuppa, take a seat and enjoy. Before we get to my December…

'The Betrayals' by Bridget Collins is one of the most beautiful and intoxicating novels I've read all year. Set in a mysterious academy called Montverre, with two timelines, one in the 1920s and one in the 1930s, 'The Betrayals' is filled to the brim with poetic imagery, mysteries and romance, with hints of fantasy and dark political elements simmering underneath. It's dangerous, it's sexy, and the romance is queer - an enemies-to-lovers plot written expertly. This novel will keep you guessing with every page and stay with you for a long time. A fabulous dark academia read. ~ Q: Where do you stand on the enemies-to-lovers trope? Do you have any favourite examples? A: I'm not usually a huge fan of this trope, but this novel was certainly an exception! I also love Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett, Benedick and Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing... And I confess that I'm not altogether opposed to Draco/Harry from the HP series... 👀😆 #thebetrayals #bridgetcollinsauthor #darkacademiabookstagram #academyofmagic #autumnvibes #cosyvibes https://www.instagram.com/p/CQAuEP7r6aP/?utm_medium=tumblr
