Description
Fifteen-year-old Scarlett Martin spends the summer living and working at her family’s struggling Art Deco hotel in the heart of New York City, where every guest seems to bring unexpected complications. When a glamorous, eccentric former actress checks into the Hopewell, Scarlett is drawn into a scheme involving an aspiring starlet—and the starlet’s difficult older brother—while trying to help her own brother land a role in an outrageously unconventional production of *Hamlet*. As family pressures, theatrical ambitions, and complicated friendships collide, Scarlett discovers that growing up rarely follows a script. Witty, lively, and full of New York charm, this coming-of-age novel explores sibling loyalty, ambition, family expectations, and the messy comedy of finding your place.
