    “Book Descriptions: It’s 2001. MTV stopped playing music videos. Boy bands and thongs are pop culture. And two college dropouts start a garage band.

    When former classmates Carla and Pete run into each other, they learn that they're both looking for something beyond a suburban existence. Despite discovering their comically conflicting tastes, they bond over vinyl—the meaning of those songs, the covers of those albums—and making music together.

    Before their greasy dive-bar cross-country tour, tragedy turns their world upside down, forcing them to decide if the band is just a teenage dream or a gateway to freedom… and maybe each other?

    Slanted and Disenchanted is an early-2000’s coming-of-age gem packed with pop culture jabs and rock-nerd heart. High Fidelity for the MTV generation, unraveling sexual tension in friendships, the chaos of adulting, family dysfunction, and the records that get us through it all.”
