This week my book is FINALLY not part of a series! WooHOO! It also comes out next month so another plus.

THE CHALLENGE: Piper has one month to get a paying gig for Dumb—the hottest new rock band in school.
THE DEAL: If she does it, she'll become manager of the band and get her share of the profits, which she desperately needs since her parents raided her college fund.
THE CATCH: Managing one egomaniacal pretty boy, one talentless piece of eye candy, one crush, one silent rocker, and one angry girl who is ready to beat her up. And doing it all when she's deaf. With growing self-confidence, an unexpected romance, and a new understanding of her family's decision to buy a cochlear implant for her deaf baby sister, Piper just may discover her own inner rock star.
This is definitely different than what I usually read but everybody needs a break from their usual genre or else it just gets boring! Wouldn't you agree?
What are you waiting for?? :D

Totally agree! I think sounds like a fresh and sweet read =) I love the it combines a lack of hearing and music - subverts your expectations.
I love reading about characters with disabilities and how they handle them, got this on my wishlist too =)
That book sounds so awesome and original... I just added it to my goodreads account :)
I like the title and there are no creatures in this book. That's refreshing! Never heard of this one. Thanks. Oh, BTW, I love vinegar and salt potato chips and I'm definitely a cat lover!

I love the idea of this book, and yes, always have to break away from the norm!!
Now, this sounds good! It is different than what I usually read too. I'll have to add it to the list for my HS Media Center. Happy reading while you wait!
Sounds great. I love rock books. And there aren't many books with deaf characters, even if it is a baby.
Hmm, I wouldn't consider this my usual book, either. I'm definitely interested though. Thanks for the info!
this sounds interesting! different from the other books I read.
But I'm all for rock. ;)
This book has been on my wishlist forever! I can't wait :D

I'm waiting for Hex Hall 2 by Rachel Hawkins... Matched by Ally Condie and several others!!!!
I love the cover and like that it's a stand alone title. Cool premise too! Thanks for sharing. I'm going to write this one down. Have a great weekend :)
This looks and sounds fantastic. I love to read this book! Great pick.
