nila 's review for:

Det hvite hotellet by Jo Nesbø
2.75
mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I feel bad for the low rating considering the book/story was written to make money for the charity Save the Children, but that's just how I feel about it. I've read short stories by Nesbø before and this just didn't do it for me. Everything felt rushed and too on the nose to make any lasting impact. There was also an abundance of tropes, so it felt quite predictable as well.
