About this item
The Nightingales are in a serious funk. Bradley Academy's all-girl a cappella group used to be the pride of the sunshine state, but the Nightingales have recently fallen out of harmony. Best friends and co-captains Lidia Sato and Sydney Marino haven't been speaking ever since a boy came between them. And not just any boy-none other than Griffin Mancini, the lead singer of Bradley Academy's smug all-boy a capella group, the Kingfishers. The Nightingales have no chance of making it to the big state final if their captains are at each other's throats. Their only hope is new girl Julianna Ramirez. But in addition to her serious pipes, she has some serious stage fright. The Nightingales will have to come together if they want to shine at the upcoming competition and restore the group to its former glory.
About the Author
Hi ! I'm Jen Calonita, a MG and YA author who loves what I do because it lets me connect with all of you (and no, I wasn't intending for that to rhyme!) .I've been writing ever since I can remember, but it was fourth grade when I put my "three wishes" for a genie down on paper. They were:#1. Buy all the Cabbage Patch Kids in the world and give them away for free (because apparently that was how I rolled) .#2. I wanted a mansion, limo, lake house, pool and speed boat (still sounds quite nice) .#3. I wanted to be an author for young readers, which I am!I love writing novels for teens (and for savvy grown ups who know that YA rocks at any age) . My first series was "Secrets of My Hollywood Life" and it followed a teen star named Kaitlin Burke who struggled with the fame game. I have also written the stand-alone novels Sleepaway Girls, it's companion book, Summer State of Mind and the Belles series. I've been writing middle grade too and am having so much fun with my series Fairy Tale Reform School! The fourth book in this series about a school run by former villains is called Tricked and will be out March 2018. Ever wonder what it would be like if your parents got a job with someone like Taylpr Swift? My other middle grade series, VIP, follows super fan Mackenzie Lowell as she tours with her favorite band, Perfect Storm. I promise to give book updates here, and on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, or my website. I hope I hear from you!xoJen
