Fiction. Literature. Suspense. HTML:"For its darkness and its glee, I loved this novel." ??Robin Sloan, author of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour BookstoreA high school music festival goes awry when a young prodigy disappears from the most infamous room in the Bellweather Hotel, in a whip-smart novel sparkling with dark and giddy humorFifteen years ago, a murder-suicide in room 712 rocked the grand old Bellweather Hotel and the young bridesmaid who witnessed it, Minnie Graves. Now hundreds of high school musicians, including quiet bassoonist Rabbit Hatmaker and his brassy diva twin, Alice, have gathered in its cavernous, crumbling halls for the annual Statewide festival; Minnie has returned to face her demons; and a colossal snowstorm is threatening to trap them all in the hotel. Then Alice's roommate goes missing??from room 712. The search for her entwines an eccentric cast of characters: conductors and caretakers, failures and stars, teenagers on the verge and adults trapped in memories. For everyone has come to the Bellweather with a secret, and everyone is haunted. Bellweather Rhapsody is a genre-bending page-turner, full of knowing nods to pop culture classics from The Shining to Agatha Christie to Glee. But its pleasures are beautifully deepened by Kate Racculia's skill with her characters, her melancholy, affecting writing about music, and her fearlessness about the loss and darkness that underline the truest humor. This is a wholly winning new novel from a writer to… (mais)

A total page-turner -- in fact, I stayed up so late reading it that, about halfway in, I had to skip to the end, so I could know how it came out and could go to sleep. Came back the next day and finished reading the middle part, and it was just as much fun even though I knew the end. Now I'm curious to read more of this writer's work -- this felt like a first book, a little bit explain-y and backstory-y. But that doesn't mar the fun plot and the evocative descriptions. ( )

This mystery (and more) was a craftily layered treat. Read my full review here. ( )

Fifteen years ago, an infamous crime took place at the Bellweather Hotel; now, it’s time for the 1997 Statewide Music Festival. But when a star flautist goes missing, is it a joke or something nefarious? This quirky novel infuses humor and music with mystery.

adult fiction (humor/suspense). This was so many things, but I've decided to call it "very delightful and very weird." Or "weird and guiltily delightful"? Words simply cannot describe, but it was a lot of fun and I am looking forward to reading more from this author. ( )
