Review Quotes: Biographical Note: Jason Reynolds is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty books for children and young adults. A 2024 MacArthur Fellow, Jason is best known for his novels, including the New York Times bestseller Twenty-Four Seconds from Now . . ., which received the Coretta Scott King Author Award and seven starred reviews; Long Way Down, which received Newbery, Printz, and Coretta Scott King Honors; All American Boys (co-written with Brendan Kiely), which received a Coretta Scott King Author Honor and the Walter Dean Myers Award for Outstanding Children's Literature; and the Track series, of which the first book, Ghost, was a finalist for the National Book Award for Young People's Literature. Publisher Marketing: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Long Way Down comes a powerful print adaptation of the acclaimed, award-winning audiobook Soundtrack--a stirring story of music, friendship, and finding your voice in 2000s New York City. ★ "[A] stunning tribute to New York City's creative scene . . . The text echoes with the sounds of N.Y.C., as Stuy perceives them, from beginning to end."--Publishers Weekly, starred review Stuy Grey plays the drums, just like his mom, a founding member of the all-black punk band the Bed-Stuy Magic Dusters. He teaches himself by watching videos of tap dancers. Now he's left home, estranged from his mom and her abusive boyfriend. He's camping out with his uncle on the Lower East Side. His landlord, Dunks, has chops: He shreds on only five strings. Add Alexis on bass guitar and Keith on horn: These teens are a band, busking in New York City subway stations to scrape enough money to record an album. As their popularity grows, so do the pressures, from complicated family dynamics to the glare of unexpected public attention. And when the police start looking for their bassist, Stuy faces his toughest decision yet. Adapted from the acclaimed Listening Library original audiobook and written with Jason Reynolds's signature rhythm, heart, and honesty, Soundtrack: A Novel is a raw, resonant story about friendship, creativity, and what it truly means to find, and fight for, your voice.
