Text on cover THE SYLVAN HOTEL
A SEATTLE STORY
FRANNIE JAMES.
[Review quotes]
"...the author impressively illuminates one of the central conflicts of early adulthood: the draw of one's cozy youth, set against the exciting promise of full-fledged adulthood."
-Kirkus Reviews
"The Sylvan Hotel is a tapdance down memory lane for those of us who came of age in Seattle in the 1990s. She evokes the disaffected "are we adults yet?" vibe of Gen X, and draws a vivid portrait of the time and place through the eyes of an earnest young woman longing for love and her own fulfilled promise" - Alexis M. Smith, author of Glaciers](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wvustesclcch44xbyqxhs2c3/bafkreiavglvsn7eafijoffex3bxci6pnhnreetqmnsrdgx4hr6qsaqj72q)
