53. Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia :: 6/10⭐️. I had SUCH a hard time getting into this one! I went in totally blind and couldn’t figure out what kind of book this was until the last third. Debutant, Noemí Taboada receives a strange letter from her newly married cousin who moved into her husband family’s estate called High Place. Noemí makes the journey to see what’s going on with her, but what she finds is not at all what she was expecting and when the dreams start, will she be able to get away? Kind of gave me The Haunting of Hill House vibes, minus the creepy. Although the book is called Mexican Gothic and it takes place in Mexico, there really weren’t any Mexican or Spanish references or words. This book is touted as a “terrifying twist on a classic gothic horror”. I didn’t find it all that terrifying. I will say, if this was made into a movie I could see it being like an Indy horror-ish movie. book / thrillers / romance / travel book / good reads / booktok books / book recommendations / on my bookshelf / kindle books / audio books / kindle girlie / kindle unlimited / amazon books / amazon reads / amazon readers / reading / reading must haves / trending books / kindle accessories / books accessories / books
