A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles
This book was not a quick read for me, but it was time well spent. I want to meet Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov because everyone he meets is absolutely charmed by him. I noticed that all of the stories told in the book or games played with Nina had a purpose, as they played a role towards the end of the book with Sofia and others. I love that the author was so intentional. I also loved reading the Count's thinking, and his logic to the situations he was in. Life in Russia was explained very well and at times I felt like I was in the Metropol Hotel right along with him. He was humorous and I loved his wit. A very good overall read that will appeal to many types of book readers.
