Summerween Book Recommendations 🎃
1. We Shall Be Monsters: This YA book is kind of like if Frankenstein mixed with Indian fantasy/mythology. Very much Gothic Horror vibes. 2. If We Were Villains: Dark academia university vibes - very “dark and stormy night” 3. How Can I Help You: Librarians and murder - need I say more? 4.
