A review by squash789
Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

This is an objectively good book I think, but it was very unpleasant for me to read. I felt myself getting so doomy and Im really glad its over haha. I hated the creepy men controlling women themes and the eugenics and imperialism stuff was so creepy. It was supposed to be though, so a very successful book in terms of doing what it set out to do!
I of course liked the mushroom stuff and thought that was a really cool way to combine haunting ghost vibes with something that seems vaguely   feasible in another world. But also so so creepy how fungi was used!!
Overall i do recommend this book if you like horror and dont mind the themes i mentioned.
