If the Ponzi scheme that is the foundation of this book is like a rock dropped in a pond, the "plot" of The Glass Hotel by Emily St. John Mandel is all about the ripples - perhaps concentric, perhaps not connected, eventually subsiding back into the quiet of the pond. I loved Station Eleven by the author. Unfortunately, this book suffers from the high expectations set by the other. I am puzzled by this book but still look forward to seeing what Emily St. John Mandel writes next.
