This book was on the long side but I think it is one that my students will be drawn to because of the cover and because of its enchanting mystery. As the mystery unfolds, we get to learn about the secrets that her held in the walls of the Winterhouse Hotel, the library, and the Falls family.Ĭhloe Bristol’s charming illustrations were a welcome break between the text. There are also a good number of references to a number of great children’s literature. It includes tons of word ladders, puzzles, anagrams, and even a Vigenere Cipher, allowing her to write and break secret codes. I enjoyed this book because its main character, Elizabeth is quirky. One that she cannot explain and its pull is very strong. Odd because, they are known to be very poor, dastardly because, they are mean and seem to want nothing to do with her, and mysterious because, again…who provided the money to send her there? It becomes apparent that she has some strange connection to the hotel. Rather suddenly one day, they come upon the means to send Elizabeth away for Christmas to the Winterhouse Hotel that is owned by Norbridge Falls. How she became orphaned is itself a mystery considering that the facts as told by her aunt and uncle are rather questionable.
