Amor Towles is in the running for my new favorite author.

I just happened to pick up two of Towles' books. I read them in the wrong order - but either way, I have fallen in love. I fell in love with his writing style. The characters in his books. The perfect way he travels back in time and takes his readers with him, without exhausting them. I could gush on and on.

The characters in this book are magical. I felt like I was in chilly New York. I felt the heart break and I felt the adventure.

The book feels like it skips around? It sometimes confused me? Really I felt like that was just the character. As Katey skipped around life and as her life took these dramatic turns, so did the readers. I loved the way we skipped all the boring in between and got right to the point. Right to the 'good stuff'.

Please pick up this book.

You won't be disappointed.

Words not your thing? Odd you are on goodreads then. No judgement, check out my picture book on this new hip site called 'Instagram'.
