Bochica: the Next Haunted Book Club Pick
We finished reading the Unworthy and the next book club read is Bochica by Carolina Flórez-Cerchiaro
Why We Chose Bochica
The setting! Bochica is a story about a young woman facing dark secrets in her former home: a haunted mansion in COLOMBIA. But not just any mansion, this mansion is located in the very much actually haunted Tequendama falls in Colombia. It’s said to be haunted with several ghosts and it’s also the home to rich mythology.
The Synopsis
In 1923 Soacha, Colombia, La Casona—an opulent mansion perched above the legendary Salto del Tequendama waterfall—was once home to Antonia and her family, who settle in despite their constant nightmares and the house’s malevolent spirit. But tragedy strikes when Antonia’s mother takes a fatal fall into El Salto and her father, consumed by grief, attempts to burn the house down with Antonia still inside.Three years later, haunted by disturbing dreams and cryptic journal entries from her late mother, Antonia is drawn back to her childhood home when it is converted into a luxurious hotel. As Antonia confronts her fragmented memories and the dark history of the estate, she wrestles with unsettling questions she can no longer ignore: Was her mother’s death by her own hands, or was it by someone else’s?
