- Book Synopsis
- A visual delight, this illustrated book marries style and substance and the result is a curated and creative collection of more than 125 often-inexpensive outings in and around Seattle to inspire romance and adventure. Secret spots, beloved locales, and unexpected destinations offer endless options for date night or a weekend getaway. This stylish, curated guidebook of hot spots and cool places for Seattleites (and visitors) to go on dates/outings/field trips/adventures is the must-have book you never knew you needed. Outings run the gamut: Tropical Winter Date features the Volunteer Park Conservatory and a secret drink at Inside Passage Get High on History includes a trip to the Klondike Gold Rush Historic Park and Smith Tower Observatory (and bar!) Eat, Drink, and Be Gay offers up Capitol Hill bars that celebrate and cater to the queer community Farther afield adventures include trips to Vancouver and Victoria, the San Juans and other islands, Bellingham and Skagit Vallet, Mount Rainier, Eastern Washington, and more! The authors seek out the obscure and fascinating, and the date descriptions are motivating enough to prompt even the most dedicated Netflix-and-chillers to head out the door. The book is an essential resource and armchair read for Seattle's couples of all ages (and singles with friends) interested in learning about off-the-beaten-path things to do, see, and taste. In-the-know authors and tastemakers Eden Dawn and Ashod Simonian pull back the curtain on where the cool cats go, while supplying fun facts along the way.
- About The Author
- Eden Dawn is the former award-winning style editor for Portland Monthly, Oregon's number-one-selling magazine. She's a beloved personality in the community, often seen judging drag queen pageants, sitting on several advisory boards, chatting through live television segments, emceeing fundraising galas, performing at storytelling events, and hosting her own quarterly series Fashion in Film at the historic Hollywood Theater. Ashod Simonian is a creative director and designer known for advertising campaigns and packaging projects for Focus Features, Columbia Sportswear, and Peet's Coffee, among others. He is the co-owner of Imaginary Authors, a niche perfume house known for its unique branding, and author of Real Fun, a book of photography and stories documenting his decade spent touring the world in a variety of indie rock bands. Together, Eden and Ashod run the activism-based nail polish company Claws Out. The Seattle Book of Dates-just like their previous best-seller, The Portland Book of Dates-is a natural extension of their adventurous, overextended lifestyle. They wrote this book from their slightly creaky 100-year-old Portland home.
