Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
3.0
3.5
A young lady goes to a distant mansion on the Mexican countryside after receiving a letter from her newlywed cousin that implies there may be something off about her new husband. When she arrives, many things are not right including the mute staff, the fungus infested house and her cousin who is just not herself…
I had high expectations for this book, and this book didn’t meet them. Although the writing was good, I found the overall story to unravel slower than it should have and the conclusion was only meh. I would compare it to the tv series “haunting of hill house” but less of a good story and less entertaining.
