Mexican Gothic is, well, gothic! However there is a serious turn towards dark magic and the supernatural. Jane Eyre on fire!  I'm not sure I loved the cooperation of nature and humans for the most sinister end game. Why does every novel, even the ones with seriously strong female characters, have to turn towards the trope of sexual violence and overpowering white patriarch? Why can't the magic be for the good, nature cooperating for healing? Like Weyward. Fabulous book. I was hoping for something like Weyward. Don't tell me that's boring and, by the way, we're in serious need of both good and healing.
