Synopsis
Thirty-six of the most interesting writers in the Pacific Northwest came together for a week-long marathon of writing live on stage. The result? Hotel Angeline, a truly inventive novel that surprises at every turn of the page.
Something is amiss at the Hotel Angeline, a rickety former mortuary perched atop Capitol Hill in rain-soaked Seattle. Fourteen-year-old Alexis Austin is fixing the plumbing, the tea, and all the problems of the world, it seems, in her landlady mother’s absence. The quirky tenants―a hilarious mix of misfits and rabble-rousers from days gone by―rely on Alexis all the more when they discover a plot to sell the Hotel. Can Alexis save their home? Find her real father? Deal with her surrogate dad’s dicey past? Find true love? Perhaps only their feisty pet crow, Habib, truly knows. Provoking interesting questions about the creative process, this novel is by turns funny, scary, witty, suspenseful, beautiful, thrilling, and unexpected.

Kevin Emerson once competed in a beauty pageant and lost (probably because he was wearing a suit of armor). He is the author of twelve novels for teen and middle grade readers, including the Atlanteans series, the Exile series, and The Fellowship for Alien Detection. He is also a guitarist and drummer in two bands: Northern Allies and the Board of Education. Emerson once appeared in a Swedish television commercial, knows that bow ties are cool, and also knows that Pinkie Pie is the best MLP. He lives with his wife and two young children in Seattle, where the damp, gloomy nights inspired Oliver’s story.
Stacey Levine is the author of My Horse and Other Stories (PEN/West Award) and the novels Dra― and Frances Johnson (finalist for the Washington State Book Award). A Pushcart Prize nominee and winner of the 2009 Stranger Literary Genius award, Levine has had fiction appear in the Denver Quarterly, Fence, Tin House, The Fairy Tale Review, Seattle Magazine, The Santa Monica Review, Yeti, and many other venues. She has also contributed to American Book Review, Bookforum, Fodor’s City Guides, The Stranger, The Chicago Reader, The Seattle Times, and The Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Her libretto for The Wreck of the St. Nikolai, a puppet opera performed in Seattle, is based on battles between the Pacific Northwest Quilyeute tribes and Russian fur traders.
