Arcana Academy by Elise Kova is a fantasy romance set in a dark academia school, featuring an intriguing magic system based on tarot cards. The story revolves around a 19-year-old fierce female lead and a mysterious male character, with a fake dating plot at its center. Although the world-building and magic concept are praised for their uniqueness, the execution, particularly the pacing and character development, leaves much to be desired. Many readers found the romance to feel forced and the writing style repetitive, leading to mixed reviews on its overall appeal.
The writing style is described as lacking flair, with many instances of redundancy in phrasing.
