Catherine House is a school of higher learning like no other. Hidden deep in the woods of rural Pennsylvania, this crucible of reformist liberal arts study with its experimental curriculum, wildly selective admissions policy, and formidable endowment, has produced some of the world's best minds: prize-winning authors, artists, inventors, Supreme Court justices, presidents. For those lucky few selected, tuition, room, and board are free. But acceptance comes with a price. Students are required to give the House three years--summers included--completely removed from the outside world. Family, friends, television, music, even their clothing must be left behind. In return, the school promises a future of sublime power and prestige, and that its graduates can become anything or anyone they desire.

Dark Academia Vibes! submitted by vtabor on June 9, 2023, 11:18am I really enjoyed this, the setting and dark academia vibes were amazing. Some have critiqued this book and that it doesn't have a plot, and I wouldn't necessarily disagree but it was honestly one of the things I enjoyed the most about it.
