An edgy, hilarious high school story about a boy in a band, dealing with loss and anger
Sean Beaudoin is the author of Going Nowhere Faster which was nominated as one of YALSA's 'Best Books for Young Adults,' and Fade to Blue, which was called 'Infinite Jest for teens' by Booklist. His short stories and articles have appeared in numerous publications. Sean's website is www.seanbeaudoin.com.
* Beaudoin is the Fred Astaire of comic writing, translating each
sentence into a manic dance routine of half-invented jargon
(chewing the profunda-cud) on his way to blessedly non-cloying
coming-of-age glory.

Larger-than-life characters....Behind the music quest, sarcasm and
pursuit of girls, however, lies a more complicated and often
compelling story about family, grief and flawed coping
mechanisms.--Kirkus
The author does a brilliant job getting into the head of a troubled
teen and does not shy away from racy topics.--School Library
