About this listen

An unusual girl. An enigmatic man. An ancient castle. What could go wrong?

An outcast her entire life, Corvina Clemm is left adrift after losing her mother. When she receives the admission letter from the mysterious University of Verenmore, she accepts it as a sign from the universe. The last thing she expects though is an olden, secluded castle on top of a mountain riddled with secrets, deceit, and death.

An enigma his entire life, Vad Deverell likes being a closed book while knowing exactly everything that happens in the university. A part-time professor working on his thesis, Vad has been around long enough to know the dangers the castle possesses. The moment he crosses paths with Corvina, he knows she is a danger to everything that he is.

They shouldn't have caught each other's eye. They cannot be. But a chill-inducing century-old mystery forces them to collide. People have disappeared every five years for over a hundred years. Corvina is getting clues to unravel it all, and Vad needs to keep an eye on her.

So begins a tale of the mystique, the morbid, the macabre, and a deep love that blossoms in the unlikeliest of places.

Gothikana

The use of her voice, she put other audiobooks to shame. The way that she spoke in *some* chapters made it seem realistic.

Ahmmmmmmmm…

I’ve been struggling to get involved in any love story of late. I blame authors not challenging themselves. And editors not demanding way more. Anyhow…

Gothika… got me to raise an eyebrow— for more reasons than one. It felt like paranormal activity all over (shivers) it was good. The suspense was banging. The teacher/ student trope for once in my reading experience was so delicious & sexy. Vad is definitely my type of antihero. He’s secretive, moody, broody, with a hint of sarcasm, plush a little stalker’ish thrown in there and yep… my type of “bad guy” & our Little Crow was my type of heroine. I never saw this story coming. And there in lies the beauty of this story. A medium burn and yet is sexy in a gothic dark way.

Why can’t every book I choose be like this. Trigger warning here: if you’re a little afraid of the supernatural, this might give you hives. The steam makes up for all chills going down your spine. Might even fog up your reading glasses.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sure did steam up mine and in the same breath while I happen to also noticed every darn creeping noise in my house. Don’t be like me and read this in the dead of night. lol
Great story.
Narration was flawless.

creepy yet romantic

AUDIOBOOK RE READ


I won't lie, this has now dropped a star. I still enjoyed this one, I love rhe mysterious and the romance of it all.

But there are some things I missed. There are some things that are left unsolved and left ambiguous. While I enjoy this element of stories, I want more!

***AUDIOBOOK REVIEW ****

omgomgomg, this creeped me out, and I loved it !!

Convina x Vad were just absolute fire together... the car scene🥵🥵

💜age gap (21/28)
💜teacher/ student
💜forbidden romance
💜how mental health was represented
💜slow burn
🥵🔥SPICE!!!🔥🥵

I love a good murder mystery ! and the supernatural element really grabbed me!

I knew to be suspicious of one character! but they were really disturbed!

did this leave on a SLIGHT cliffhanger..yes..but its worth it ! (kind of Addie Larue), its open for interpretation!

⚠️TW includes dark themes of suicide, mental illness ⚠️

Good story but overwhelming narration.

I really liked the premise of this book. I enjoyed that it was a standalone book. I thought it was will written and well thought out. There was a few loose ends but nothing that spoiled it overall. I also never saw the ending coming. But the female narrator was just too over the top for my taste. Reading the calm bits of the story was great, very entertaining. The more exciting bits of the book were spoiled, in my opinion, by over acting. I would still recommend though as she does have a lovely voice and I enjoyed a lot of it. Male narrator was good. Will read more by this author.

good read

This book had so much promis. The story could be great, but I needed more.

I would have been hooked and loving it a few things where added. Such as more world building, I didn't quite know where the book was set or what time period until further into it. (Could just be me)

Character development- Need more. Relationships felt quite surface level, more pages needed for me to get right into it. Would have liked more MMC POV.


Performance of voice actors where great.

All in all it's a great wee read in-between books.

Enjoyable overall

It’s been a good journey. The mystery was captivating, the characters well written, and the overall gothic vive of the book thrilling. The performance was great, both narrators did a great job.

Beautiful

Dark academia meets dark romance and meets spooky.
Loved it so much.
Do I want the answer we didn’t get? Yes but also it fits well with the castle
