I really like this magical book!
It certainly gives off the Caraval vibes - enchanting, alluring and yet it has dark secrets underneath it. 

I absolutely love the strong sister bond between Zosa and Jani. 
The interesting characters inside the hotel kept me interested with their background story revealed little by little as the story goes.

I also love the blooming slow burn sweet romance between Jani and Bel!
I love the mysterious Bel, he's very swoon worthy! It made me wish there's his POV in this story. 

The ending was a bit too rushed in my opinion but otherwise, it was all a happy ending for all the characters. 

Overall, it's an enchanting debut novel with easy to read writing style that will  hooked you right into the plot to explore this magical mysterious hotel!
I'll definitely check out other books by this author in the future!

The beginning of this book did move a bit slowly for me, but once things started happening OH MY GOD. There were so many twists, turns, and new developments that it had me HOOKED. 

This book had a good amount of exposition and additional detail. It had many romance tropes, but still kept up the main plot without cheapening the story. There was never a sudden "i just met this person but now I'm madly jealous of someone talking to them," never a romance that upends the purpose of the story. It tried to stay balanced. The romance was heavy: 50% romance, 50% plot. There are a good few unnecessary plottwists/decisions that only added so much. Overall, the book was enjoyable, even if it wasn't revolutionary.
