Let’s dive in!
June Book Release
The first June book release has been removed from this list as the author has been proven to be a sexual harasser.
Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Expected publication date: June 30th, 2020
Genre: Gothic Horror
Synopsis: 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 — her cousin’s husband, a handsome Englishman, is a stranger, and Noemí knows little about the region.
Noemí is also an unlikely rescuer: She’s a glamorous debutante, and her chic gowns and perfect red lipstick are more suited for cocktail parties than amateur sleuthing. But she’s also tough, smart, and has an indomitable will, and she is not afraid: Not of her cousin’s new husband, who is both menacing and alluring; not of his father, the ancient patriarch who seems to be fascinated by Noemí; and not even of the house itself, which begins to invade Noemi’s dreams with visions of blood and doom.
Her only ally in this inhospitable abode is the family’s youngest son. Shy and gentle, he seems to want to help Noemí, but might also be hiding dark knowledge of his family’s past. For there are many secrets behind the walls of High Place. The family’s once colossal wealth and faded mining empire kept them from prying eyes, but as Noemí digs deeper she unearths stories of violence and madness.
And Noemí, mesmerized by the terrifying yet seductive world of High Place, may soon find it impossible to ever leave this enigmatic house behind.
Thanks for reading!
What books are you looking forward to in June?
I pre-ordered Mexican Gothic, too!
YAS! Enjoy! 🙂
I got approved for an ARC of Mexican Gothic and I can’t wait to read it! Happy reading, Erica.
That rules!! Enjoy!!
Those below the tree house sounds intriguing if it isn’t too YA angsty. It’s certainly an author I plan to try at some point.

I’m curious what people will think of Mexican Gothic!
I’ve heard great things from a few bloggers so far! 🙂
So I have an arc of Mexican Gothic and can’t wait. And why haven’t I heard of the other one? Sounds like one I need to grab!
<3 <3
Mexican Gothic is on my radar, for sure. I read her vampire story a couple of years ago and enjoyed the world-building but wasn’t drawn as much to the storyline or the character development. But I still wanted to dive into more of her work. So I’m looking forward to this one!
I hope this one is a hit for you! 🙂
Wow both of them sound amazing. I am sure you will have fun reading them. Stay safe and stay in, Erica.

I’m on a no-buy any books (ugh) but these two sound tempting! I hope you enjoy them 🙂
I’m supposed to be in a buying freeze as well after my Corona Con splurge… Whoops! 🙂
Mexican Gothic has such a beautiful cover and I do love books which are gothic so I am excited for that one too!
Right?! I can’t wait to get a copy!!
