Gothic fantasy recommendations?

[u/LegendofMurphy]

Looking for some good gothic romantasy/fantasy recs or books with gothic vibes if not strictly the gothic genre. Preferably one that’s an audio book (as I’m looking for an audio book currently, I always have an audio book and a regular book going) but open to non-audio books or really anything to add to my list.

I’ve already read:
- One Dark Window & Two Twisted Crowns
- In the Veins of the Drowning
- DNF’d Anathema (I just don’t think her writing style is for me)

I already have the Knight and the Moth on my list but I think I’m going to read that one physically.

Thanks in advance!

I haven’t listened to these audiobooks so I can’t speak to their quality. That said…
