"A haunting, dreamlike tale of sacrifice, love, and obsession." -- Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author.
Delaney Meyers-Petrov is tired of being seen as fragile just because she's Deaf. So when she's accepted into a prestigious program at Godbole University that trains students to slip between parallel worlds, she's excited for the chance to prove herself. But her semester gets off to a rocky start as she faces professors who won't accommodate her disability, and a pretentious upperclassman fascinated by Delaney's unusual talents.
Colton Price died when he was nine years old. Quite impossibly, he woke several weeks later at the feet of a green-eyed little girl. Now, twelve years later, Delaney Meyers-Petrov has stumbled back into his orbit, but Colton's been ordered to keep far away from the new girl... and the voices she hears calling to her from the shadows.
Delaney wants to keep her distance from Colton -- she seems to be the only person on campus who finds him more arrogant than charming -- yet after a Godbole student turns up dead, she and Colton are forced to form a tenuous alliance, plummeting down a rabbit-hole of deeply buried university secrets. But Delaney and Colton discover the cost of opening the doors between worlds when they find themselves up against something old and nameless, an enemy they need to destroy before it tears them -- and their forbidden partnership -- apart.

Sweet supernatural dark romance

As a Deaf Ed teacher, I was also happy to read a book with a deaf protagonist. I think it showcased the spectrum of deafness well.
1. Not all deaf people are fluent in sign language.
2. Advocating for yourself is difficult when you're not sure what services would best meet your needs.
3. Deaf people often feel lost or left out in conversations where there is a lot of other background noise happening.
I was also super happy that her parents signed. Around 85% of hearing parents who have a deaf child do not learn to sign. So, I was grateful when both of her parents signed with her. It was also sweet that Colton had been going out of his way behind the scenes to learn some signs to communicate with her.
I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to read a beautifully written story with plenty of eerie and tense undertones that all tie together for a larger picture in the end.
Delightfully eerie and thought-provoking!

The way I take a few moments to connect the words and laugh a whole beat after a joke has made everyone else laugh.
But Lane isn't just a little glass girl. She's amazing, and her disability isn't magically cured or inspirational. She exists as a Deaf person and it's so refreshing to just have an adventure for us, by us. I recommend this book to everyone. It's got a very Wednesday horror vibe, and lots of twists and turns.
I'm about to read it again it was so good.
Wow! Just wow!!

As an attentive and avid reader, I found the story very enjoyable with a relatively satisfying ending. Kelly, the author, has a very eloquent, fluid, and beautiful writing style. However, there were a few repeated phrases/words that began to stick out after a while, such as "winnow." It's a great word and was used correctly, but it was used too often.
The varied POVs were also enjoyable, and I'm often dissatisfied with books that switch POVs.
The afterward from Kelly was insightful and, as a writer myself, I particularly appreciated hearing about her unique writing process.
Now onto the cons - and some minor spoilers:
There could have been more exposition of Lane's daily life after the beginning. About 3/4 of the way through, it was unclear if Lane and Colton were even still attending classes at Godbole. Toward the end, it became clear that Lane, at least, was. How did that work exactly, given her circumstances at the time?
Aside from the first one with Whitehall, we never saw what the classes actually looked like. What were they learning? We only, briefly, saw Lane's interactions before and after classes.
The identity of the Apostle was so obvious from the beginning that it seemed silly it was treated like a big reveal/twist.
The part toward the end with Colton coming to get Lane could've been explained better. How exactly did he take her back home?
There also could've been a LOT more explanation about hell/purgatory and how it all works.
There are a lot of questions that are unanswered for me, but they're all more world building more than plot holes. It felt like there were things the author knew while writing that got missed/glossed over. But, again, nothing huge or plot-breaking.
Overall, if you enjoy dark, YA romance with urban fantasy elements, then GET. THIS. BOOK.
Great story and performance!

Absolutely devoured this book. I've been waiting for it to come out and absolutely had to snag it with my Audible credit for the month. I couldn't stop listening. And I just ordered the stunning owlcrate special edition and cannot WAIT for it to arrive <3
Lane is such a charming character - determined to stand out, to live her life to the fullest, despite the difficulties she faced in her childhood and the way that the darkness seems to talk to her. The Deaf rep is great; I appreciated seeing her struggle with her classes, but the teachers not understanding and accommodating her, and her not knowing to advocate for herself (because she's 18).
Colton is everything <3 The damaged, broken boy who doesn't think he deserves love is always my favorite trope. He knows he shouldn't talk to her, knows it is dangerous for both of them, and it's the last thing he should do. Yet how can he resist the girl with the purple hair, the colorful outfits, and the wide eyes?
But what is the secret of this prestigious academy? What is lurking in the darkness? Why isn't Colton supposed to talk to Delaney? And what will happen when they can't resist the pull to be near each other? You are gonna wanna dive right into this lovely dark academia mystery!
hauntingly beautiful dark academia
