Five Flavors of Dumb - by Antony John
(November 11, 2010)
The Challenge: Piper has one month to get the rock band Dumb a paying gig.
The Deal: If she does it, Piper will become the band's manager and get her share of the profits.
The Catch: How can Piper possibly manage one egomaniacal pretty boy, one talentless piece of eye candy, one crush, one silent rocker, and one angry girl? And how can she do it when she's deaf?
Piper can't hear Dumb's music, but with growing self-confidence, a budding romance, and a new understanding of the decision her family made to buy a cochlear implant for her deaf baby sister, she discovers her own inner rock star and what it truly means to be a flavor of Dumb.

I'm signed up on an ARC tour for this book & can't wait to get my hands on it! A YA novel based around music & hot boys? What could be better? :-)

Music + hot boys = yes. Also, whenever I see a deaf dancer on So You Think You Can Dance, etc., I find myself sobbing. So you just know this is going to be good. Also, I kinda love the title. I mean, before I even read the description I thought "Well, that sounds like how I talk." Cute :)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really good! You will have to keep me updated as you read it!
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike! :) How lucky that you get an ARC of this! I am jealous!
