Dad’s an aging L.A. punk rocker known as the Rat.
Daughter’s a buttoned-up neat freak who’d rather be
anywhere else. Can this summer be saved?
Now
that she’s exiled from Canada to sunny Los Angeles, Katy
figures she’ll bury her nose in a book and ignore the fact
that she’s spending two weeks with her father — punk name:
the Rat — a recovered addict and drummer for the famously
infamous band Suck. Even though Katy doesn’t want to be
there, even though she feels abandoned by her mom, even
though the Rat’s place is a mess and he’s not like
anything she’d call a father, Katy won’t make a fuss.
After all, she is a nice girl, a girl who is quiet and
polite, a girl who smiles, a girl who is, well, beige. Or
is she? From the author of BOY PROOF and THE QUEEN OF COOL
comes an edgy new L.A. novel full of humor, heart, and
music.
