Overview
For readers drawn to the strange, the scholarly, and the slightly unhinged.
This challenge explores dark academia through mood and meaning — not just setting, but obsession, identity, beauty, decay.
A mix of classics, hyped favorites, indie voices, and hidden gems.
Just stories that feel like ink and candlelight.
