Lost References:
Hotel is on Ben’s bookshelf. Also, it deals with a group of strangers with suspect pasts whose lives and stories collide.
Thoughts:
The book was well-plotted, with a collection of plotlines all straightened out by the end of the book. Some were a little too neat. Yes, Hailey did let one of his villains get away, but I think it was supposed to be a likeable villain, so even though I didn’t like him myself, I don’t think it counts.
Speaking of characters, they were plentiful and varied, as people are in a hotel, and the main man is easy to root for as he’s handed a plateful of problems and is limited in the ways he can resolve them. All in all, it’s not a very thought-provoking read, but it has some merit. At the very least, it’s entertaining.
