Hotel Ruby by Suzanne Young
5.0
“The Hotel Ruby was built in 1936_it was a playground for the rich and famous. A stationary Titanic. And just as tragic.”
Hotel Ruby combines suspense, mystery and romance to create a compelling story. Simple yet impactful writing that lures you into the story within a few pages, when the book ended I wanted more it wrapped up quite nicely. Young keeps her sentences simple, and the pace fast. The writing is smooth and crisp, I finished the book in one sitting. I knew the overarching story, there were still some questions that I had.
Insta-love between Audrey and Elias. I believe she saw him as a summer romance, Young makes it work. I love how Audrey slowly uncovers the horror of the hotel. While not quite knowing the hotel’s history, yet also knowing that the hotel is a very dangerous place to be. The villain of Hotel Ruby is crafty, and readers can never be too sure of who exactly he/she is until the very end. The hotel is forbidding, and Young mentions the hotel as if it’s alive and conscious of itself.
