A cute, funny story that I enjoyed even without much gothic romance experience. It’s pretty simple and short, knowing exactly what it wants to be. The humor (especially facial expression) was the highlight for me.

This is a quick and delightful read that parodies all of the Gothic romance tropes with love.

Fun with tropes! (sci fi and gothic, mostly, in entertaining and meta ways) This was silly, sweet, and a little delightfully absurd. It has some good laugh out loud moments. I've seen it compared to Nimona, but it doesn’t have that emotional punch.

A fun read where Haley our main character finds herself thrust into the universe of a gothic romance plagued by a mysterious curse. It’s funny, cute, has a great art style, and the characters and themes are a great way to see tropes of the genre in action.

There were cute and funny moments but overall it felt a bit disjointed.

completely unserious and very enjoyable.
The hermitress or whatever was kind of a dumb plot twist.
