A review by casuallyreadingx
Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

4.0

Well this was cozy and creepy. I know this book won’t be for everyone bc it is horror. A chilling atmosphere, unreliable characters, lots of detail, and mushrooms. Yes, lots of mushrooms. The atmosphere is haunting: everything described could be visualized. On the edge. 1950s time era. Badass female character. Mysterious. Very unique. I loved the representation. We can all admire this stunning cover! My only complaint is that the first 1/3 of the book was soooo slow with not much going on. But push aside and you’ll be happy with the results.

This would be perfect for pre-Halloween: but I read horror all year round!
