Synopsis

All her life, Jani has dreamed of Elsewhere. Just barely scraping by with her job at a tannery, she’s resigned to a dreary life in the port town of Durc, caring for her younger sister Zosa. That is, until the Hotel Magnifique comes to town.

The hotel is legendary not only for its whimsical enchantments, but also for its ability to travel—appearing in a different destination every morning. While Jani and Zosa can’t afford the exorbitant costs of a guest’s stay, they can interview to join the staff, and are soon whisked away on the greatest adventure of their lives. But once inside, Jani quickly discovers their contracts are unbreakable and that beneath the marvelous glamour, the hotel is hiding dangerous secrets.

With the vexingly handsome doorman Bel as her only ally, Jani embarks on a mission to unravel the mystery of the magic at the heart of the hotel and free Zosa—and the other staff—from the cruelty of the ruthless maître d’hôtel. To succeed, she’ll have to risk everything she loves, but failure would mean a fate far worse than never returning home.

Review

Writing: At first when I started reading the book , I found the writing a bit standoffish for some reason and I was having trouble blending in with the book, but then as I read , it got better and I found the writing good. I think my book slump was playing tricks on me at first.

characters & plot: Honestly the characters are nice and well written but they’re not significant , its a typical type of characters. That being said, I think each character fit into their role and played it nicely. As for the plot , I enjoyed reading this story. It’s a mix of howl’s moving castle (my fav movie) and maybe caraval trilogy. But it’s simpler , fast paced and full of surprises. It was just what I needed in my book slump honestly. And just when I thought this book couldn’t get better , the plot twists came and made it cooler.

Romance: The romance was cute and since it’s YA , thankfully not too much. It’s a perfect ratio.

This was my review on Hotel Magnifique by Emily J.Taylor ,I think it’s the perfect read if you want something fast but interesting at the same time.

Happy Reading!
Mariam.
