The Bewitching by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
5.0
I was bewitched by Silvia Moreno Garcia's most recent novel, The Bewitching.
It is both impressive and unsurprising how much research and care goes into each of her novels.
The Bewitching follows the narratives of three women, separated by time and place but united by magic and danger.
In her signature style, one of these narratives takes place in Mexico. We are transported to a small village in the early 1900s, where a young girl must learn how to survive an evil that is plaguing her home.
The other two narratives unfold at a small college in Massachusetts. In the 1930s, a girl dabbling in witchcraft goes missing. Decades later, in the 1990s, a graduate student researching the manuscripts of a horror author begins to experience a similar haunting.
I could not put this book down. It was full of tension, rich folklore, and compelling narratives.
Thank you to Del Rey , Penguin Random House and Netgalley for an advanced reader's copy of one of my most anticipated books of my life.
