Summary
 AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER I.V. Marie's thrilling dark academia debut set at a magical boarding school in purgatory where some fates are worse than death … For fans of Leigh Bardugo’s Ninth House, Olivie Blake's The Atlas Six and Naomi Novik's A Deadly Education.

Welcome to Blackwood Academy: a boarding school located on the fringes of the afterlife.

No one knows why they end up at Blackwood; but when they enter the school's arched gates the only way out is to be chosen for the Decennial – a series of magical trials held once a decade. The chosen pupil is offered a choice: graduate and join Blackwood’s magical elite, or venture into the unknown and cross over to the Other Side.

Wren knows she has what it takes to win—unless, that is, her arch-rival (and subject of her tortured dreams) Augustine steals her spot.

Irene has never cared about playing by the rules and will break whatever (and whoever) stands in her way, including her only friend, Masika.

Olivier has given up securing the nomination. But he’ll stop at nothing to keep Emilio, from crossing over to the Other Side.

All are determined to be Blackwood’s chosen candidate. All are determined to win. But this Decennial will be unlike any before.

Six nominees.

Four trials.

One victor.

The competitors are about to learn that there are some fates worse than death.

Enemies. Lovers. Rivals. Reapers. Blackwood Academy isn’t just purgatory — it’s obsession, betrayal, and a love that refuses to die.
If you want dark academia + rivals to lovers + deadly stakes + tension so thick it burns 🔥

𝕴𝖒𝖒𝖔𝖗𝖙𝖆𝖑 𝕮𝖔𝖓𝖘𝖊𝖖𝖚𝖊𝖓𝖈𝖊𝖘 surprised me in the best way. I will admit it took me a bit to get into, I found the world building a little confusing in the beginning but I’m SO HAPPY I stuck it out. The concept of the book was fascinating to me, I love the multiple POVs and the drama between the characters as the story progresses. The discovery of who the real bad guys are did throw me, and I honestly cannot wait for the sequel!

He’s infuriating. He’s irresistible. He might be the death of her — again 💀

I almost gave up on the book in the first few chapters. I'm glad I kept on reading. It ending up being a great book that I couldn't put down. I'm glad I don't have long to wait to read book 2.

Great book
