I struggled a little to get going with this book. I thought the story would follow both sisters, but it's really focused on the elder sister, Jani, as she figures out the history of the hotel and it's staff. The first half I found a little slow, but the second half has a better pace. I was more interested once the story took a darker turn.
I liked the characters, and seeing their relationships with one another grow and evolve. I enjoyed the story overall, but I didn't warm to Jani and the ending fell a little flat for me.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
