A review by bucolicbookshelf
House of the Beast by Michelle Wong

5.0

This is going to be one of the titles of 2025 - it’s a true gem, in book form. 

*Gothic
*dark fairy tale
*romance
*revenge
*a scorching debut readers will not want to miss 

You’ll think about this when you’re not reading and when you’ve finished, and the ending will wreck you. That’s all I’ll give you here; and I’ll implore you to please, please read this. 

Please allow me a moment as well to rave about the author’s artwork throughout! I loved it, it was utterly perfect and brought some scenes to vivid life. They added sooooo much and I would love to see artwork/illustrations in more books. 

I can’t wait to read more of Michelle Wong’s future titles, and (hopefully!) more of this world. 

Thank you to Harper Voyager and NetGalley for the DRC
