Sometimes a title does the first half of the work. House of Spells and Secrets absolutely does that for me.
I want a book like this to lean into its own atmosphere, a little danger, a little enchantment, and the feeling that every room is hiding one more bad idea.
If it keeps that mood alive past the premise, I am all the way in. This is exactly the kind of fantasy-adjacent book I would reach for first.
