Weep, Woman, Weep by Maria DeBlassie
5.0
Mercy and Sherry, two Inseparable friends, live in the town of Sueño, so close to the Shadow Lands. Part of a forgotten place in New Mexico, A sorrowful land!
La Llorona, lady of the river, made a horrible mistake, can be heard on stormy nights, weeping and wailing for all she lost. La Llorona, Weeping Woman, hurting people because she hurt too much to know better, always got the women, came for them. Women had no power. They will be like La Llorona, weeping and always in sorrow!
"We were powerful women, and we could choose our own fate."
Mercy and Sherry want to escape from here, from La Llorona. But, La Llorona is too vindictive to let them free. Always something gets wrong with the plans.
"I am built for tears. It's in my blood."
...
"The next time I cried, I killed someone."
Now, it's the time for Mercy to face her family curse alone. She manages to buy a farm, Mercy Farm. Growth miracles and lives her loneliness. She collected each tear spilled into the jar. It took some time but, by the end of it, the many jars were full. She doesn't want to let La Llorona see her weep and moan and break.
"But nothing makes a woman brave except living."
This gothic- horror tale was very beautifully written, so engaging, and compelling! I loved the story, Narration, Mercy's character. The story told by Mercy made it very heartwarming. I really enjoyed this book and Please do not forget the cover!
