On Thursday, April 18, 2024 at 9:30 a.m., we will be meeting in the Library Classroom (upper level of Geisel) to discuss "Mexican Gothic" by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. 

Description

"After receiving a frantic letter from her newly-wed cousin begging for someone to save her from a mysterious doom, Noemí Taboada heads to High Place, a distant house in the Mexican countryside. She’s not sure what she will find...[and] mesmerized by the terrifying yet seductive world of High Place, may soon find it impossible to ever leave this enigmatic house behind" (GoodReads.com).
