House of Hearts: Dark Academia, Cursed Love, and a Haunted Legacy
from Cyn's Workshop · host Cyn's Workshop
Today I’m reviewing House of Hearts — a moody dark academia novel set in a haunted private school, steeped in family curses, soulmates, and lingering ghosts. The atmosphere is rich, the premise compelling, and the gothic vibes are absolutely doing the work here.The story shines in its eerie setting and emotional stakes, especially when it leans into the haunted-house energy and the weight of inherited trauma. While I enjoyed the journey, the ending felt a bit too quick for how much buildup came before it, leaving me wanting just a little more breathing room at the end.If you’re a fan of dark academia, ghost stories, cursed families, and soulmate-driven narratives, this one is still very much worth checking out.✨ Tune in for my spoiler-free breakdown — what worked, what fell short, and who I think House of Hearts will resonate with most.
