5.0

I love a good gothic noir fantasy book and holy hell did Starling House deliver.

While the main characters are morally grey, I couldn’t help but root for them, for their ‘will they won’t they’ and for the house itself.

This book is exactly what I needed/wanted the book to be.  And I do love a book with some footnotes and illustrations.  I will most likely re-read and annotate in the future.
