tori1994 's review for:

House of the Beast by Michelle Wong
4.0
adventurous dark medium-paced

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher, Harper Voyager, for providing me with an ARC! I was so excited to be approved for this one!!

When I first read the premise of this book, I knew it was going to be different. It was dark and unique, and honestly there was a lot  packed into this book.

Fans of The Serpent and the Wings of Night will appreciate the high-stakes trials and complex father-daughter dynamic, while the eerie, monster-within element evokes the same gothic allure as One Dark Window.

At its core, this is a story about devotion, love, and the fierce struggle for self-determination. The protagonist doesn’t just face trials; she claws her way through them, fighting to carve her own path in a world that seeks to define and shame her.

If you’re craving a dark fantasy that’s original and bold, pick this one up!
