I’m reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo.

I read this ages ago but I really liked Summer Sons by Lee Mandelo.

If We Were Villains M.L. Rio’s If We Were Villains - a college Shakespearian theater troupe is cursed with dark secrets (and murder). I’ve never been that into theater, but this story was utterly absorbing.

Scholomance trilogy by Naomi Novik - Naomi Novik’s Scholomance Trilogy is set at a school where its sorcerer students are in constant peril–monsters lurk in every corner along with the school’s darkest secrets; the enemies-to-lovers tension between the (secretly uber-powerful and potentially evil) protagonist and the infuriatingly nice boy (who has the audacity to keep ‘saving’ her life) will make have you hooked.
