Should you Read The Daughter of Doctor Moreau? | Silvia Moreno-Garcia Book Review | Overbooked [CC] 

Completely agree that the tone was not clear enough. It was a good read but not as gripping as I would have expected given the subject matter.

This book felt like historical fiction with complex themes inspired by The Island of Doctor Moreau, not leaning into the science fiction enough for me personally. P.S. I also love Mexican Gothic so much! Another slightly off-kilter retelling (as in not perfectly retold, but reimagined!) is Unwieldy Creatures by Addie Tsai.

Not a thriller reader but I do always feel a twist should not make or break and experience even if you guess it early or got spoiled for it. This one just felt so *fine* and underwhelming as a result imo

Do you have a web page or site where an independent author can find out how to send you an author’s copy of a new novel?
