Since it's still January, time for an updated 2024 #MSWL! I'm currently really on the lookout for psychological thriller (a la Riley Sager), mysteries (cozy and whodunnits please), and light horror (nothing too gory, I want to sleep at night). Dark academia a plus as well!

seeing all these stupid people act like gothic fiction is unaware of racial tensions while sitting in my class on how the british empire’s decline’s is necessary for the existence of the gothic as we know it taught by an absolutely brilliant woman is making me tear my hair out
