The Fall of the Hotel Dumort by Cassandra Clare, Maureen Johnson

magikspells's review against another edition

This book was not perfection by any means, but honestly, it's a novella. It's a short story, most of which wouldn't make sense unless you'd read the last two. But I can say that I honestly didn't expect it to end the way that it did. Or perhaps I knew that it would end like that, but I had forgotten and didn't want that to happen. Either way, Magnus and all your feelings. Ugh, killing me. But I love it.

Sigo sin saber cómo sentirme respecto a Camille, no sé si la odio, o si me da lástima.

Rating: 3.5/5

The pacing was slow but the mystery was funny. I didn't really care about Camille. Was Magnus on the planet to just fix everything all of the time? Most of the world would have been dead if it wasn't for him. It was a shame that he

erased his memories of Camille. It does make me wonder how he remembered in the end in The Mortal Instruments?

This story show more of the great person that is Magus Bane, the hidden love behind him and Chamile, as well as the faith that he puts in Rafael.

I enjoyed how the authors used a real life event and mingled it with downworlders

natopotato's review against another edition

Fue un relato entretenido, como algunos de los otros no exactamente de mis favoritos (como el anterior a este) pero si un lindo relato. Hasta que leí el final. Madre de dios, lo que fue el final. Me quedé anonadada por lo que leí, los sentimientos de los personajes se cruzan con los míos y lo que antes podría ser molestia por armarse un triangulo amoroso/mal tercio en TMI ahora es... simple dolor, como dije sentimientos cruzados. Pena. Camille me cae cada vez mejor y Magnus, oh mi pobre y adolorido Magnus. Muy buen relato, bello final, ¿Qué pasará con ellos de ahora en más? Supongo que será una herida del pasado a menos que las cosas cambien en CoHF.

"What do you do?" the woman asked.
"This and that," Magnus said.
"Are you in fashion? You look like you're in fashion."
"No", he said. "I am fashion."
- Cassandra Clare and Maureen Johnson, The Fall of Hotel Dumort

This book gave the impression that the seventies were all about drugs and a stereotypical description of it. I can understand Magnus opinion on this topic and it's clear he wasn't born for disco and wild patterns. After reading two short stories about vampires, I'm quite sick of the constant vampires and long for a bit of variety. The Fall of Hotel Dumort seems to be the last one in the trilogy, which I'm not sad about. To talk about the story itself, it was lovely to see Magnus taking care of Camille after being affected by the drugs, how he still cared for her (and her health). The rest, rather boring actually.

I love how caring Magnus is , he cares about people way too much and always saves everyone.

How can I find someone else like him???
