Castle of The Cursed
Castle of The Cursed: Discover the YA gothic vampire romance from the author of Lobizon | Romina Garber
5 posts | 3 read | 2 to read
A deliciously dark gothic romance from New York Times bestselling author Romina Garber! Perfect for readers of MEXICAN GOTHIC by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. I see his shadowy form taking shape. He could be a teen or in his early twenties; and yet, the starry galaxies of his eyes contain universes. After a mysterious attack kills both of her parents, Estela Bralaga is forced to accept an invitation to live with an estranged aunt at their ancestral Spanish castle, la Sombra. Beneath its gothic faade, la Sombra harbours a trove of family secrets, and Estela begins to suspect that the answer to her parents deaths may be found in the twisting corridors of the castle. When Estela crosses paths with a silver-eyed vampire called Sebastian, the pair soon realise they are bound by unknown forces, as well as an intense attraction, and must work together to discover the truth that lies at the dark heart of la Sombra. Deliciously atmospheric and darkly romantic, Castle of the Cursed was one of my favourite novels of the year. I absolutely loved it Melissa Marr, New York Times bestselling author A brooding romance with a compelling, gothic setting Kirkus Reviews

First off, the Owlcrate edition is stunning.Too bad the book was disappointing. I thought it was going to be four stars during the first half, and I couldn‘t put it down. But that second half and the science fiction and loose twists annoyed me. There are some weird media I like, but this reminded me of “Vassa in the Night.” I wished it had been more of a supernatural/vampire campy tale like Twilight, instead of a muddled plot and open ending.

This was a dark tale about a creepy castle and family secrets. This one sucked me in quickly. I loved the different characters and the world building (without giving spoilers) was very interesting.

I love that vampires are back! Castle of the Cursed was a really interesting and quick gothic YA book, though it might've been too quick because I would've loved more about characters and the gothic ambiance!
