What a delightful and beautifully written book. This is my first novel I've read by Amor Towles and his writing style resonates with me deeply. I feel like I was transported to each scene with the beautiful imagery. Every chapter made me want to read more and hear about the hotel and it's cast of characters. I will definitely be checking out more of his writing. ...more

Astute, Amusing, Applause

I enjoyed every page of this book. I liked the character building of each person. I read it like a Wes Anderson film. The characters overall are are witty, charming, and interesting. The count made the absolute best life he could possibly have, despite his situation. In addition to a great story, we get a glimpse of what it was like during that era. I would recommend to all!

Absolutely brilliant. I wish the author was my neighbor. I can’t imagine the fantastic conversation we would have.
