shetef 's review for:

Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
4.0
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.
