Silvia Moreno-Garcia is 3/3 for me so far, with The Seventh Veil of Salome being my favorite of hers yet. This book has layers! It intertwines the biblical story of Salome with 1950s Hollywood beautifully. It touches on how hostile that time period was to actors of color and women. The main character is a Mexican woman and her family traditions were so comforting and frustrating at times because same girl. Vera broke my heart.

Nancy— you delusional, miserable wench!!! Hate her. Love to hate her.

Love that she gets what she deserves muahahaha.

Loved this book. It will stick with me for a long time.
