     Amplified

     Tara Kelly

When privileged 17-year-old Jasmine gets kicked out of her house, she takes what is left of her savings and flees to Santa Cruz to pursue her dream of becoming a musician. Jasmine finds the ideal room in an oceanfront house, but she needs to convince the three guys living there that she’s the perfect roommate and lead guitarist for their band, C-Side. Too bad she has major stage fright and the cute bassist doesn’t think a spoiled girl from over the hill can hack it. . . . In this fresh new novel by critically acclaimed author Tara Kelly, Jasmine finds out what happens when her life gets Amplified.

I bet a lot of you are excited about The Iron Knight, huh? I haven’t actually started that series yet but I have the first 3 books at home so I will soon. I’m most intrigued by Amplified. It sounds like a breath of fresh air in the YA genre. 

Which one are you looking most forward to?

    I’m really excited for Amplified as well! I’ll be getting that one because I’m going to her signing next month. I got The Shadow Reader for review so I’ll be reading that one soon. And The Iron Knight was really good!
