A review by readbyjoey
The Haunted Hotel by Wilkie Collins

3.0

This is the second book I read by this author and I have to say it made me want to read more. The first book I read by him was 'The Moonstone' and with that book it became obvious from quite early on that the book was written with a different type of reader in mind. That is not the case with this book. I enjoyed it much more. I think the shorter format forced the author to condense the story and made for a faster pacing which I liked. I liked the setting of the story which I think really added to the reading experience. I also really liked the characters in this book, I think they were very well done and interesting. The gothic elements were well blended with the mistery and made for an interesting read.
