The Obsidian Devotion
Crimson Vows of Obsidian Pages
A year of deliberate, devotional reading—tracking not just pages turned, but the wounds, comforts, and obsessions each story leaves behind.
01
Covenant of One Hundred Eternal Echoes
To read at least 100 books that linger, echo, and refuse to let go—across dark fantasy, gothic romance, and psychological thrillers.
04
Covenant of the Crimson Edge & Shadows
To balance beauty and brutality: for every tender, romantic ache, a sharp, shadowed tale that cuts just as deep.
02
A Ritual to Manifest XV Gilded Relics
To seek out 15 books that feel like relics—instant favorites I would press into the hands of anyone who asks where to begin.
05
Rite of the Twenty-Five Thousand Whispered Leaves
To spend 25,000 pages in conversation with the dark—annotating, underlining, and returning to the lines that won’t let me go.
03
Banishing the Lingering Chronicles
To finally finish the series that haunt my shelves half‑read, and either lay them to rest or welcome them fully into the archive.
06
The 400‑Hour Rite of Nocturnal Tales
To devote 400 hours to night‑bound reading—quiet, lamp‑lit hours where the world is small enough for stories to take over.

next on the altar
a thorn in every heart
of ancient veins, broken thorns, and silhouettes of fate
bloody black
for heinous revenge, splintered pirate ships, and blood‑soaked tides
what fury brings
for salted blades, violent gales, and jagged wreckage
Rites of the Starling
for monsters and a treacherous love
Chosen Offerings
The Keeper's
Chosen to lead you in gently—and leave you a little haunted.
Starling House
Alix E. Harrow
A cursed house that wants a keeper, a town built on buried sins, and a girl too stubborn to run—gothic Americana with teeth and a soft, lingering ache.
Belladonna
Adalyn Grace
Death is a patient suitor in this lush, Victorian-tinged romance, where poison, prophecy, and longing coil tight around every waltz.
One Dark Window
Rachel Gillig
A mist-choked tale of magic and ancient cards, where a cursed mind palace whispers bargains that stain every soul it touches.
