The Prince Rupert Hotel for the Homeless: A True Story of Love and Compassion Amid a Pandemic by Christina Lamb

Did not finish book. Stopped at 90%.
I was so excited by the premise of this book, but felt so let down by the execution. It takes a naïve and at times voyeuristic look at the lives of the homeless that were housed by the Prince Rupert Hotel during the Covid Lockdown's. The writing was overly focused on creating saviours of the rich owners than the homeless guests themselves. The whole thing felt simplistic and disappointing.
