Weep, Woman, Weep: A Gothic Fairytale about Ancestral Hauntings by Maria DeBlassie
4 out of 5 stars

This is a short and very quick story. I loved the pace of it. It kept its rhythm, storyline, and direction. The women in this book are the personification of strength and compassion and are very strong. Hope out of Hopelessness and Mercy out of Despair. A beautiful story by a wonderful author.

4.5 out of 5 stars

Mercy lives along the Rio Grande River in New Mexico, she is constantly pursued and followed by La Llorona, the tortured spirit of a mother who drowned her children. Ms DeBlassie spins this web of magic over a beautiful desert landscape, where you are told the story of La Llorona and Mercy and how their paths continue to cross during Mercy’s life. This tale becomes even more haunting when a tall stranger moves next door to Mercy’s farm and her whole life is flipped upside down. While this was a very quick read, I thoroughly enjoyed it and literally could not put it down!

This is a very unique tale of loss, sadness, and the search for a life worth living. Mercy is surrounded with women who feel the ache of rejection and the echo of those who have left or been taken. After losing her dearest friend, she knows that she needs to fight for herself, and the future of who she might become. DeBlassie’s writing draws you in to the story, and her words curl around you until you feel immersed in Mercy’s Sueño. A good story.
