Weep, Woman, Weep by Maria DeBlassie

4.0

Growing up with the legend of La Llorona best friends Sherry and Mercy dream of escaping Sueno, New Mexico and to live lives of happiness.

Life gets in the way of dreams and Sherry is dragged into the river by La Llorona. Mercy is the only survivor, if you can call it that. In reality it seems she gets the worse of the curse and must face a lonely life fearing the townspeople think the worst of her. Regardless she tries to build a life of happiness for herself. She then learns things aren't always what they seem.

Weep, Woman, Weep a Gothic Fairy Tale by Maria DeBlassie is a novella featuring strong women characters. Fast paced and very enjoyable. I just wish it were longer.
