Olive and her adopted siblings Charlotte and Darwin are spending the summer with their estranged grandma at her creepy hotel and it’s all work and no play. They’re stuck inside doing boring chores but they soon stumble upon an incredible secret... Behind each room door of the hotel lies a portal to a different strange and mysterious place. The simple turn of a knob transports them to a distant magical world filled with space pirates. Behind the next door are bearded wizards. Down the hall is a doorway to a cotton-candied kingdom. But once the doors are opened, worlds start colliding, and only one family can save them before they tear themselves apart. Written by Terry Blas (The Amazing World of Gumball) and illustrated by the talented Claudia Aguirre (Kim & Kim), this world-hopping fantasy tale breaks down the door to imagination and dares you to embrace the idea that family is everything.

My first read for the latinx book bingo (https://twitter.com/LatinxBookBingo)
The three children of the dare family are visiting their grandmother in her hotel in mexico. But as time is passing and they get bored, they discover that the hotel contains more than just rooms.
I really loved that book ! The style is great, it's colorful and the drawings are beautiful. The story is full of adventures but also full of important subjects. It talks about family, adoption, how family is more than just blood. It's also full of latin references such as recipes and activities. It just kept me hooked, I read it in less than two hours, it warmed my heart and soul. I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for a quick but great read. The only read I didn't give it a 5 stars is because I would have liked a little more time between the beginning of the book and the beginning of the adventure.
