Struts & Frets by Jon Skovron
4.0
This book tackles a lot of tough issues in a short amount of space: the highs and gritty lows of being a musician, the relationship challenges teenagers face with friends and girlfriends and parents, growing old and all the terrible things that sometimes includes, sexual orientation, and identity, and what it’s like to tackle a creative life with varying levels of support from the people in your life.
That would be a lot to bite off, but with bright, realistic and likable characters, this author pulls off that laundry list with ease, making this a quick, enjoyable read with a great atmosphere of music throughout the entire thing. The voice is age-appropriate without being annoying and smooth without being simple. A fantastic debut and I look forward to more from this author.
