Nikola Hotel

Nikola Hotel has a great weakness for dark characters and suppressed emotions, which is why her heart is especially attached to the New Adult genre. And this is evident in her emotional yet compelling love stories. Since 2020, each of her books has immediately entered the Spiegel bestseller list upon release. In addition, all her novels have special features, whether it's hand lettering in "It was always you" and "It was always love," a flip book and origami folding instructions in "Ever" and "Blue," or blackout poetry in "Dark Ivy." Nikola lives with her family near Bonn and provides a variety of insights into her writing routine on Instagram. To date, her books have been translated into six languages.
