A shy, rule-following teen winds up joining a local rock
band in this laugh-out-loud, heartfelt coming-of-age novel. Victoria Cruz inhabits two worlds: In one, she is a rock
star, thrashing the stage with her husky voice and
purple-streaked hair. In the other, currently serving as her
reality, Victoria is a shy teenager with overprotective
Cuban parents, who sleepwalks through her life at the
prestigious Evanston Academy. Unable to overcome the whole
paralyzing-stage-fright thing, Victoria settles for living
inside her fantasies, where nothing can go wrong and
everything is set to her expertly crafted music playlists. But after a chance encounter with an unattainably gorgeous
boy named Strand, whose band seeks a lead singer, Victoria
is tempted to turn her fevered daydreams into reality. To do
that, she must confront her insecurities and break away from
the treadmill that is her life. Suddenly, Victoria is faced
with the choice of staying on the path she’s always known
and straying off-course to find love, adventure, and danger. From debut author Janelle Milanes comes a hilarious and
heartfelt tale of the spectacular things that can happen
when you go after what you really want.
