Why read it?
1 author picked The Enigma of Room 622 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Joël Dicker is another author I am a fan of, having followed his career since his debut, The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair.
Like my second recommendation, it features the author as a semi-fictionalized character in the book. The setting of the novel is a grand hotel in the Swiss Alps and revolves around another mystery with multiple timelines as the narrative shifts back and forth.
The writing is concise, spare even, and comes to a very satisfying ending by the time of the book’s conclusion.
