Ali Smith is a master wordsmith, this book is so cleverly written, such a unique writing style, really fantastic. Be warned though there are some heavy topics throughout the book, but the author tackles them really well.

Uh oh, here's that pesky stream-of-consciousness style that I almost always dislike! The premise intrigued me but I can tell that I would read this book only while hating it at the same time. Not for me at all.

4.0

A five-act narrative, bringing together a diverse cast of characters touched in some way by a bizarre freak accident at a hotel. Grief, loneliness, despair - but suffused throughout with Ali Smith's trademark dry humour. Because it's Ali Smith, also expect some wild syntax and unforgivingly beautiful prose.
