Band Geek Love, By Josie Bloss As a former band geek, so many of the events in this book rang true to me. Ellie Snow is a trumpet section leader and super serious about band. On the last day of band camp a sophomore trumpet shows up and needs to be integrated into the line. Anyone who was in marching band knows this is a huge pain in the neck, requiring extra practice, and sometimes the rearranging of drills that everyone else has already learned. But Ellie takes it to a level unheard of in my band, acting like she has the option of telling the band director that the kid can't join. That didn’t make any sense at all for her to have that much authority. Throughout the novel we discover that Ellie had a huge crush on a senior trumpet when she was in 9th grade and that ended with complete humiliation. Since then she has not dated anyone and has become very moody, and private, and paranoid about people judging her for anything other than her musical skills. Conner, the sophomore trumpet, turns out to be a love interest for Ellie. However, she blows the thing way out of proportion by being so scared and uptight about dating a sophomore and letting other people know about it. Connor also acts somewhat strange and like he has secrets. But when his secret comes out, it is so trivial, and not even worthy of the secrecy he employed. But Ellie totally freaks out, over something that I might think was funny or embarrassing, she acts like she’s totally been betrayed. I liked the book because it was related to marching band, but most of it wasn’t about marching band, but about Ellie’s ever growing and pulsating ego. She was mean and self centered and overreacted and lashed out at everyone, about everything! There is a sequel coming out this month: “Band Geeked Out” but I was so turned off by the protagonist that I don’t know if I’ll be checking that one out. Here’s a tip for all authors, if you make us hate your main character, it will be hard for us to like the story as a whole. ~Lindsay~
