This goes down as one of my favorite books. The imagery is amazing. I immersed myself in this book like I have done a few others. I must read again to get the nuances that I didn't get the first time. ...more

A very long book with literally NO action, because the whole story took place in one hotel in Moscow about one man over a long time. But, it was beautifully written and his life and Russian history draw you in from the beginning! It was a book that I could read, put down while reading another book simultaneously and then go happily back. Different but GOOD!

This book has incredible reviews. I felt it was slightly boring, especially the beginning. It took A LONG time get interesting but by then I wasn't as engaged as I wished I had been. I loved that the main character, The Count, made the most of his life and relationships after being put on "house arrest" in Metropol Hotel. ...more

Brilliant! My review is simply what will I read next after having read this and His Bloody Project, back to back, that will be so satisfying?!
