Heh, I read it without knowing most of the references and thought it was great. (I basically only know Jane Eyre and the Yellow Wallpaper from cultural osmosis, and had to go look up Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz just now).
I really liked Moreno-Garcia's Ignyte-nominated Gods of Jade and Shadow and I backed an Indiegogo by her to publish a translation of a Dracula retelling novella and so have ended up on her author mailing list which is always interesting. (Have I read the novella, and the other books I got from that campaign? of course not, they're in the giant ebook tbr ...)
My library has a bunch more of her books (this is how I picked up Mexican Gothic) so I am slowly working my way through them.
