This was on a list of Dark Academia recommendations. And with POC? I borrowed it from the library with a quickness. But I kept waiting for the magic and instead got a Gossip Girl vibe. I watched the original TV show, so I'm not hating. This book just wasn't what I expected.

Which is a shame because I would normally be into a story about the only two Black kids at a private school. Categorize 👏🏽 books 👏🏽 properly 👏🏽
