Hello everyone!! Welcome back to another video~ I wanted to try something a little different with today's video. I've been wanting to make some more analytical-style videos recently and I thought 'why not combine a video essay with a reading vlog!'
I hope you like this vlog / kinda essay all about Donna Tartt's The Secret History and the irony of the Dark Academia aesthetic. I absolutely lovely pulling apart books and analysing them, so I had a lot of fun making this. I love the Dark Academia aesthetic as well, so honestly this video was just a joy all around.
I hope you enjoy it! Take care everyone 💛
