A review by grecia_r
The Paragon Hotel by Lyndsay Faye

5.0

I LOVED this book. From the first chapter, I was hooked. The prologue... meh. A whole lot of foreshadowing. Slightly unsurprising epilogue. Still though. Definitely unexpected twists and turns. It was the epitomy of a good read: It made me laugh, it made me cry, love, sympathize. We were everywhere. And the historical notes at the beginning of each chapter were really interesting. I always like when my historical fiction does come with actual researched facts telling you where they drew their inspirations from. I do so wish I knew a little more about what eventually happened to Max though. But I also find it interesting that we really travel through three different times, when that book's future is obviously still not the present. I don't know. Maybe it was just the right time, but I really adored this read.
