Thank you for the opportunity to review Midnight at the Tuscany Hotel. Many elements of the novel were appealing. I found myself attracted to many of the characters including Valerie, Vito, and John. The magical elements of the fountain water were interesting and unique. I did not find the connections to mythology as successful. Overall, the novel could have been 100 pages shorter.

What a great story about different artists and their muses, lost memories and memories found again. Finding truths from the myths and legends. Hearing stories from long ago and not so long ago.

Listening to how people react when they get their memories back, or when those that are losing their memories really tugged at my heartstrings since I went through that with my grandfather when I was just in high school. Makes me wonder what his thoughts would be on the fountain.

There were times I was reminded of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue but with Greek mythology in there.

Loved that it had two narrators!

Thank you NetGalley and Dreamscape Media for the ALC

This is a lovely bit of magical realism, reminiscent of the writings of Gabriel García Márquez. Vittorio recently returned from war and finds his incredible memory and visual connection to colours is more than he can stand. At the same time, his father is showing signs of senility and his memory is crumbling and he wanders away from home. When his Father is found at the Tuscany Hotel in his right mind, Vittorio realises there may be magical properties there. Thanks NetGalley for the ARC/audiobook.
