adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.25

Mexican Gothic is what happens when you decide to tell the story of colonisation as it actually is: A horror story.  The classic genre fit so well with the themes the author addressed.  I was uncomfy the entire time which is in fact the point so she did her job well!
