Hotel Moscow by Talia Carner
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lots of confusing action and characters that I could not keep track of. By the time I figured out what was going on I still wondered essentially who was who.
Now I'm pretty good at figuring things out but this was an obtuse story about things that probably could never have happened. Just hard to believe the story.
The good part is that this is a well written book. I think it’s just the way the author wanted it. I was never surprised but I was astonished at the way the fall of communism and then failure of democracy was portrayed. It may be the saving grace, and for sure it’s why I finished the book. I lived during that period of history and I was amazed.
