“The Glass Hotel” by Emily St. John Mandel

This was a good book, but I actually enjoyed “Station Eleven” more. This one was too populated with sad sacks, but what do you expect, I guess, when you’re reading a book inspired by Bernie Madoff and his Ponzi scheme. Also, there was less about the Madoff character than I expected, and too much about a half brother and sister pair, with the brother being the loser addict sad sac character. It’s nice that the book has ghosts and hallucinations; I like hints of the otherwordly.
