What book is currently on your nightstand? Who is the author? What genre? How do you like it? Would you recommend it to others?
minus-squareStarkestMadness@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI’m about 70% through Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. It’s not bad, but I think I like Noemí more than I like the book itself.
minus-squareHisBane@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoI struggled a bit with that read myself. It uses a lot of classic gothic tropes and was a bit slow moving for me, (think Castle of Otranto) but my friend absolutely loved it.
