雪の夜は小さなホテルで謎解きを (Paperback Bunko)

The cozy, detailed environment really brought the story to life for me. I'm curious whether the author based it on a real place or created it from imagination.

The story kept me guessing without feeling too dark or complex. I'm wondering if this balance was intentional to keep young readers engaged.

Each character had a unique voice and personality, making the community feel lived-in. I wonder if she based them on people she knows or if they were entirely fictional.
