Grave Matter by Karina Halle
4.0
I had an amazing time reading this with my book club. Thank you so much to Karina for the eARC.
It was an unnerving, creepy, and thrilling read for me, and I found myself completely immersed in the setting of the story. The author's writing style was exceptional and allowed me to vividly imagine myself at the institute. It took me a bit to get into it, but once I did, I couldn't put it down. I had no idea what was going to happen next, and that was the best part. It was so frustrating not knowing what the heck was going on, but I just had to keep reading to find out. I'm so glad I did. The author's imagination is wild! The story was full of surprises, and I loved every minute of it.
Here are my reasons why you should read this:
♡ Perfect for spooky season. Dark academia/cottagecore vibes
♡ Women in STEM
♡ Unreliable narrator
♡ Professor x Student
♡ Forced proximity
♡ Isolated setting/haunted forest
♡ BDSM elements
♡ Fun with fungi (this was so different from what I imagined, iykyk)
♡ Degradation kink
♡ Obsessed MMC
