[1271] Stripped - Chapter 1

This is the first chapter of a novella I'm working on. The title of the novella is Stripped. It follows the socially awkward student Izzy Swansong who struggles to fit in with her hedonist peers, spurred on by her tutor who she has feelings for. However, when she discovers a diabolic tome that challenges her self-understanding, she must confront whether to embrace her true identity or succumb to the allure of acceptance.

I'm mostly interested in feedback on content (characters, setting, structure, f.i.), but if anything stands out prose-wise, that's welcome too of course.
