A review by olicooper
The Iliac Crest by Cristina Rivera Garza
4.0
I give this four stars without really understanding what it is I just read... but I enjoyed it immensely.
It feels like it fits snugly into the Gothic horror genre-- elements of fear, romance, nature, gloom permeate the novel.
This first-person narrative comes from an unreliable narrator, so that by the end of the novel, it feels as if most of the novel is in question.
I think the mix of emotions you feel along the way is quite exciting and the confusion that develops is delightful.
