Weep, Woman, Weep by Maria DeBlassie
3.0
This was a short read, maybe too short. I usually stay away from gothic horror, or any kind of horror because I'm a scaredy cat, but I'm trying to read more of it this time around.
I liked the way the story was imagined and by what it's inspired by, but. The atmosphere was slightly unsettling, but also maybe too cozy in a way for what was promised. The other thing that didn't sit well with me was the voice used, when I picked up the book I expected an older voice from our main lady, but sometimes it veered into a kind of a teenager voice?
All in all, short, almost atmospheric read, and sometime to pass two hours with if you are on a bus ride like I was :)
