House of the Beast
by Michelle Wong
I’ll be honest, this book took me a few chapters to get into, but once I hit about chapter 3-4, I was hooked! I really loved how this story had a mysterious, dark, and gothic feel and atmosphere. There’s a good mix of folklore, generational trauma, and quiet horror that builds in such a unique and satisfying way. Nothing is overly flashy or in-your-face, but the tension that simmers just beneath the surface, and when things hit, they hit hard, and I was all for it. I really loved the FMC, she felt so raw and honest and so different from other female main characters I’ve read recently. If you’re into gothic fiction with strong vibes, layered storytelling, and a bit of dark romance, I highly recommend giving this one a read. This is one I will definitely be adding to the re-read list! Thank you NetGalley & Avon and Harper Voyager for the eARC!
