Penelope Everly is a girl claimed by Death. He stalks her from the shadows, watching and waiting. But now that she’s becoming a young woman, her parents have betrothed her to someone against her will in order to save their dwindling family fortune.

Victor Van Daught has no interest in marriage or remaining in the town he grew up in to take over the family business. He is a man of science and discovery—an aspiring entomologist. But when he meets Penelope Everly he’s immediately enchanted by her.

The young couple enter the halls of Corvus University together, given a semester to solidify their betrothal. But the school holds more secrets than scholars, and when students start disappearing, Penelope and Victor begin to fear that Death has come to claim his bride.

Death’s Bride is a gothic Corpse Bride inspired folktale retelling with dark academia and romantic horror vibes.

Painter’s Obsession Volumes I & II by @luna.k.wicked are both available now on KU, Amazon and audiobook.

Personally, I recommend the audiobooks. Narrated by @lovemiamoreno, @therealjoearden, and @corvin.king.
I honestly don’t think there could be better narrators for this series. The emotion, and honestly, insanity that is felt through the narration…top tier.

This series had me not wanting to stop listening while also thinking “what in the actual F am I listening to?”….and I LOVED every minute of it. I normally don’t bother saying “check your triggers”, but I feel that this particular series absolutely needs that pointed out. It is detailed, graphic and intense, but soooo addictive.

THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE.... THIS IS STOCKHOLM... TOXIC WITH AN UNCONVENTIONAL HAPPY ENDING.. THIS IS MORE OF PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR EROTICA.

TROPES:
Captive/ captor
Mutual destruction
“If I Can’t Have You, No One Can”
Obsession/ Possession
Psychopath
Bisexual rep
Forced Submission
Corruption
Sadist vs. Masochist
Trauma Bonding
No Safe Word
Love is to consume
Mutually Assured Destruction
The Masterpiece Must Suffer

TRIGGERS:
Somno
Drugging
Kidnapping
Non-Con & Dub-Con
Self-Destruction & Suicidal Ideation
Sensory Deprivation
Forced Submission
Forced Betrayal
No Morally Redeemable Characters
No Escape, Only Ruin
Psychological torment
Domestic Violence
A little golden drink (Yes pee)
Mentions of divorce
Child abuse (flashbacks)
Child SA (flashback)
PTSD
Puke
Gore
Sexual abuse
Cannibalism
NO HEA

Thanks for the tag @jazzy_bookshelf, I loved your post, even though you bad mouthed 3 of my favourite books 😆

In fairness, I am probably going to upset a few readers with my choices... 🙊

I saw @breesbookmark had an additional one of “explain to a stranger” so I took that idea and added my own twist - my incredibly innocent Mum 🙈

Absolute top tier standout books listed are...
🖤 Insatiable - Leigh Rivers
🖤 Jar of Hearts - Jennifer Hillier
🖤 Saving Noah - Lucinda Berry
🖤 Fourth Wing - Rebecca Yarros
🖤 The Mindf*ck series

🖤 The Perfect Child - Lucinda Berry
🖤 Still Beating - Jennifer Hartmann
🖤 Voracious - Leigh Rivers
🖤 Long Shot - Kennedy Ryan
🖤 The Games Gods Play

I’ve tagged some people to share their picks, assuming they’ve also not done the trend yet! You can do the standard 4, add in Bree’s strangers or add your Mum like me

In honour of being a sunny winters day and my creativity being 👎 here is a stack of books that spell SUNSHINE 🙊

QOTD: what’s your weather like?

I’ve only got two left in the stack to read - Hawke and Underneath the Sycamore Tree - if you’ve read either, let me know your thoughts!

I’ll tag some friends to share their own based on the weather they have, so either SUNSHINE or OVERCAST

🌌 PANTONE BIRTH CHART 🌌

I’ve always been a bit of a sensitive and dreamy wee bean, and think the colours of my chart fit aspects of my personality pretty well!

Took the Pantone swatches and applied them to my TBR, with a mix of all my fave genres in both fiction and NF.

What’s in your stars friends? Have you read any of these?
