sampleddreads 's review for:
The Dream Hotel
by Laila Lalami
challenging
reflective
slow-paced
✰ "To be a woman was to watch yourself not just through your own eyes, but through the eyes of others."
important message, boring characters. great ideas, mid execution. i just wanted to feel something, but this was incredibly underwhelming. hoping for more authors to create stories based on our current surveillance society though.
even if the story itself doesn't fully realize its ambitious goals [in my humble option] 💔 the author has some essays and think pieces that I'm eager to work through soon.
