shetef 's review for:
Mexican Gothic
by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
dark
mysterious
tense
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
Bit of a slow burn but very effective. There are occasional bits of dialogue that don't read to me as authentic. Moreno-Garcia's use of patriarchy and colonialism as driving forces for horror works well here.
Moderate: Sexual assault
