hnagarne 's review for:
Mexican Gothic
by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
dark
mysterious
tense
medium-paced
cw: colonialism, colorism, racism, eugenics, sexual assault, incest, cannibalism, murder, body horror, gaslighting, drugging, sexism...
4.5 rounded up.
i finished this book eight days ago and i'm still thinking about it, which is how i know it was a five star read. it was so atmospheric and spooky and horrifying -- not my usual kind of read at all. i did briefly read the plot synopsis before diving in, but sometimes i just pick up a book and see where it takes me, you know? and this one was a journey.
if i had known this book would have incest and cannibalism i am not sure i would have picked it up tbqh, but i am glad i did.
