Sometimes I go to the library and judge books only by their cover. This one seemed interesting, and I can say it was. The writing is fantastic, and while I had no idea what the book was about going in, I became weirdly engrossed in the main character's life, just as they became engrossed in their work.

The central plot is interesting and I liked the characters, but this could have been edited down a lot and little would have been lost. Parts of it almost read like it is the script for a movie itself, with a lot of explanation instead of action. Also while I found parts of Mexican Gothic to be genuinely creepy, the horrors here don’t quite hit the same level of intensity.
