Raven Hotel cover. A crow on a branch and a strange castle
Finished reading "Raven Hotel" by Chiara Catella A beautiful collection of gothic stories. I really appreciated the style and the idea of a common thread. Same place (a strange and disturbing town) but different eras, from the late 1700s to the present day.

The book The Master of Shearhaven sit on a table next to a lamp. It ha a faux purple leather look with geometric patterns on it. Cameo-like silhouettes of two male profiles are in two boxes. The Vanguard symbol - an alchemical looking symbol of a curved sword cleaving an infinity symbol between two symbols for mercury. The callouts read: Gothic Horror, Dark Fantasy, MM Relationships, Two Time Periods. One Chilling Story.
The new paperback edition of The Master of Shearhaven features a new look, revised cover copy, and emphasizes the gothic and queer aspects of the book. I'm really proud of how this turned out. Links to buy here: jonwesleyhuff.com/pages/fiction

Just finished Bochica and wow what a haunting, slow-burn Gothic gem set in 1920s-1930s Colombia. Family secrets, colonial guilt, and beautifully written tension. A solid 4-star read for lovers of atmospheric, feminist horror. The Ordinary Bruja's contemporary cousin.
