Gothikana

De: RuNyx

Narrado por: Aiden Snow, Scarlett Dorian

An unusual girl. An enigmatic man. An ancient castle. What could go wrong?

An outcast her entire life, Corvina Clemm is left adrift after losing her mother. When she receives the admission letter from the mysterious University of Verenmore, she accepts it as a sign from the universe. The last thing she expects though is an olden, secluded castle on top of a mountain riddled with secrets, deceit, and death.

An enigma his entire life, Vad Deverell likes being a closed book while knowing exactly everything that happens in the university. A part-time professor working on his thesis, Vad has been around long enough to know the dangers the castle possesses. The moment he crosses paths with Corvina, he knows she is a danger to everything that he is.

They shouldn't have caught each other's eye. They cannot be. But a chill-inducing century-old mystery forces them to collide. People have disappeared every five years for over a hundred years. Corvina is getting clues to unravel it all, and Vad needs to keep an eye on her.

So begins a tale of the mystique, the morbid, the macabre, and a deep love that blossoms in the unlikeliest of places.

It’s not terrible

I also came from booktok. The performance was great, but the book itself was pretty bad. I pushed though it, but I wish I didn’t waste my time with this one.

meh

definitely not what I expected in a bad way. lost interest but tried to push through to the end hoping it got better. it did not. the performance was awesome but thats the only thing that saves it.

Indulge in an ethereal mystery and romance

Indulge in this ethereal mystery with a dark forbidden romance at its center that will leave you mesmerized.

The author RuNyx does an impeccable job of creating an atmospheric read that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The story is both thrilling and suspenseful, and the character development is top-notch.

Narrators Aiden Snow and Scarlett Dorian drew me in and kept me hooked. They were fantastic.

Overall, “Gothikana” is a must-read for anyone who loves dark academia and forbidden relationships.

Very female forward

RuNyx has done it again! The amount of spice left my tongue burning and my brow sweating! I thoroughly enjoyed the mostly female perspective in this book.

absolutely spectacular

this story is one of my fav stories. this was a re-read for me and I am so happy I chose to listen to it this time. the audiobook was everything, the feelings the narrators put into the story only add to it. this book will forever have my heart and I know I'll listen to the audiobook again because it was that beautiful. I highly recommend everyone to give the book/audiobook a chance. You'll not regret it!

Love the castle in the woods vibe

I didn’t really like the twist. I was hoping that there would have been more magic. This story is very much based on reality. I wish I had read this instead of listened. The female narrator does not super great male voices. It made the spicy scene a little cringey. Good story though.

Pretty Good for 10hrs

The plot was pretty meh, didn't see the ending coming, but the characters were great and the MFC wasn't weak and whiny. would listen to again.

Beautiful, intense dark academia with a very gothic vibe

Beautiful, intense dark academia with a very gothic vibe. Set in a haunted castle on a mountain with an OTT mercurial anti Hero. loved it

Just okay

The narrator's voice gets a little pitchy and takes you out of the story. The story itself is just okay. The plot is not well developed, there is not a whole lot of character growth, and not all questions are answered at the end... however, there's plenty of spice. I appreciate good spice. I'm not sure that this was good spice, more like cheesy dirty spice but there was spice. Probably an acceptable read for Kindle unlimited, but ehhhhh as an audiobook.

i read through it so fast.

its such a good book. i was totally surprised how good it was. its has mystery, spice, fantasy,
