I really can’t describe it well, but I am playing a text based game that has quotes like:
“Passers-by watch you with narrow eyes. What do they see?”
“Someone speaks your name. But when you turn, there is only a mirror.”
“High above, the false-stars glimmer. Did one of them… move?”
“Today, something in the air makes the gas-lamps slink low, burn marsh-green.”
“A cat’s eyes glint on a high window-ledge. ‘What a wretched day,’ it remarks.”
I love stuff like that, I know the description is very lacking, but any novels that give off a similar feel?

{{The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern}} is explicitly inspired by the Fallen London
{{Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones}} is creepy cozy.
