The Battle of the Bands

1. Setting This book is set in a modern time. It could be anywhere in the timeline between Pink Floyd’s song money and, present day. It is set in a normal American town. It sounds like a rather suburban setting (not in the city but not in the country). It also seems to be a middle class neighborhood. 2. Characters

There are 3 main characters in this story. Jay, Kel, and Cia are the three main characters. They are in a band that they have formed. Kel plays the electric bass guitar. Jay plays electric guitar. Cia plays the drums. They are all in the 11th grade. 3. Plot The story is about a band that performs in the local battle of the bands competitions. The three main characters endure the drama of band life. They must beat a band that seems to be equal if not better than themselves. Just before the next big battle, someone has sabotaged their rival band and fingers get pointed at Jay. His band mates however, stick by Jay as he figures out how to prove his innocence.

Summary: If you enjoy the growing up while in a band scene you will enjoy this book. If you are in a band you will be able to relate to many of the things of this book. I personally liked this book, but I enjoy this kind of thing. It is basically a preference thing, like how most things are.
