this book belongs because…
a man who loves crazy.
verdict
everyone thinks she's crazy. honestly? maybe she is a little. but after everything she's survived, who wouldn't be? while everyone else sees a problem to avoid, he sees the girl underneath all the damage. dark, addictive, and filled with the kind of chemistry that makes you keep saying "one more chapter" until suddenly it's 2 a.m.
vibe
if my dreadful darling felt like getting shoved down a flight of stairs, eternal feels more like a slow descent into chaos. it's still dark. it's still messy. but beneath all the tension, bullying, and mind games is a story about being seen for who you really are. and for her? that's terrifying.

reader fit
you love dark academia with a little bite to it, emotionally damaged characters, college romance, possessive villains, and relationships that blur the line between love and obsession. if your favorite characters are slightly unhinged, you'll probably have a good time here.
you want a light college romance or a hero who's nice from the start. this isn't the darkest bully romance i've ever read, but he definitely earns the bully label before things start shifting.
content warnings
bullying, emotional trauma, mental health struggles, manipulation, violence, and themes surrounding psychological distress. both characters are carrying more damage than they're willing to admit.
standalone + hea
can be read on its own and does have a happily ever after.
