Synopsis
A New York Public Library 2017 Best Books for Teens selected title!
It’s the start of Jordan Sun’s junior year at the Kensington-Blaine Boarding School for the Performing Arts. Unfortunately, she’s an Alto 2, which—in the musical theatre world—is sort of like being a vulture in the wild: She has a spot in the ecosystem, but nobody’s falling over themselves to express their appreciation. So it’s no surprise when she gets shut out of the fall musical for the third year straight. But then the school gets a mass email: A spot has opened up in the Sharpshooters, Kensington’s elite a cappella octet. Worshiped . . . revered . . . all male. Desperate to prove herself, Jordan auditions in her most convincing drag, and it turns out that Jordan Sun, Tenor 1, is exactly what the Sharps are looking for.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. CC6 - An uncorrected proof paperback book in very good condition that has some bumped corners, light discoloration and shelf wear. A cappela just got a makeover. 8.25"x5.5", 384 pages. Satisfaction Guaranteed. Jordan Sun is embarking on her junior year at the Kensington-Blaine Boarding School for the Performing Arts, hopeful that this will be her time: the year she finally gets cast in the school musical. But when her low Alto 2 voice gets her shut out for the third straight year - threatening her future at Kensington-Blaine and jeopardizing her college applications - she's forced to consider nontraditional options. In Jordan's case, really nontraditional. A spot has opened up in the Sharpshooters, Kensington's elite a cappella octet. Worshiped revered all male. Desperate to prove herself, Jordan auditions in her most convincing drag, and it turns out that Jordan Sun, Tenor 1, is exactly what the Sharps are looking for. Jordan finds herself enmeshed in a precarious juggling act: making friends, alienating friends, crushing on a guy, crushing on a girl, and navigating decades-old rivalries. With her secret growing heavier every day, Jordan pushes beyond gender norms to confront what it means to be a girl (and a guy) in a male-dominated society, and - most importantly - what it means to be herself. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Advance Reading Copy (ARC). Seller Inventory # ec53353
