A review by absolutereality
Silver Nitrate by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

Did not finish book. Stopped at 30%.

This is really painful because I loved MEXICAN GOTHIC and THE DAUGHTER OF DOCTOR MOREAU. However, SILVER NITRATE does not have the lush writing style I loved about the other books. There are excessive descriptions of character actions, flat dialogue, and I don’t really care about the characters. It’s supposedly a horror story but I feel no tension building at all. This feels more like a rough draft of a screenplay than a completed novel.
