Ooh I wouldn't have thought of The Night Circus as Gothic, but now you're making me rethink it. Perhaps I'm due for a re-read. Would also add Carmilla to that list!
Not overly gothic although the Circus is a character in itself. But I think it's such a wonderful read for this time of year. It's one of those books I never wanted to end!
Ooh yes absolutely! The Circus is a character in and of itself. I used it as part of my MFA thesis (multiple POV novels in spec fic) and did enjoy it, though I definitely would say it skews more towards the romantic end of the Gothic spectrum.
