Delicious Minds - by Thea Liu (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Razor-sharp and viciously decadent dark academia debut featuring a prestigious secret society with a deadly hunger for knowledge.

Knowledge is an acquired taste.

Frenton University, Virginia, 2002.

After his older brother's untimely death, grad student Ari Lin yearns to escape his parents' struggling bakery. Then a cryptic invitation arrives.

It takes only one taste of the elite and enigmatic Asclepion Society to ensnare Ari. Although entry into the society's inner circle is highly exclusive, Ari and his fellow candidates Thomas and Cleo strike up an intoxicating bond as they strive for approval.

But as academic and romantic rivalry sink sharp teeth into the trio, they discover the society's pursuit of all human knowledge is fueled by strange and sinister methods of procurement. And darker yet, Ari can't ignore the suspicious connections between his beloved society and his brother.

A seat at the table will give each of the trio the thing they need the most, if only they can stomach what it takes to get there.
