While I can see what others may have gotten out of it, this book just wasn't for me. The first half dragged, and even when things picked up I didn't find myself interested in continuing. I could go days without reading it just because I didn't care. Even though the pacing and story didn't really click with me, I recommend picking this up if you're interested. The book is exactly what it labels itself: Mexican gothic. It is a genre I'd like to read more of, and I found myself reminded of Lovecraft Country in a lot of bits. I am glad to see I do seem to be in the minority as far as disliking this goes, and would like to give more of Moreno-Garcia's work a shot.
