Kirkus Reviews, starred review
A pulse-pounding fantasy. Avalanching peril keeps the pages turning in Taylor's intricately plotted, deliberately crafted tale. Inventive worldbuilding adds dimension, while witty banter and reluctant romance among intersectionally diverse, emotionally complex characters inject levity and depth.

Booklist, starred review
A high stakes, deliciously dark tale of a young woman risking it all for the truth. From its brilliant magic to the torturous slow burn romance, The Otherwhere Post mesmerizes from cover to cover.
- Lyssa Mia Smith, author of 'Revelle',
Unique, whimsical, and utterly spellbinding, The Otherwhere Post kept me captivated until the very last page. Emily J. Taylor is as much a magician with her words as are the characters she writes. A triumphant sophomore novel that asserts Taylor as one of YA's most compelling storytellers.

It was wonderful to escape into such a rich imaginative world and lose oneself in a story so compelling, I genuinely could not put it down. As dizzyingly inventive as the Hotel itself. A real imaginative tour de force
