When privileged 17-year-old Jasmine gets kicked out of her house, she takes what is left of her savings and flees to Santa Cruz to pursue her dream of becoming a musician. Jasmine finds the ideal room in an oceanfront house, but she needs to convince the three guys living there that she's the perfect roommate and lead guitarist for their band, C-Side. Too bad she has major stage fright and the cute bassist doesn't think a spoiled girl from over the hill can hack it. . . . In this fresh new novel by critically acclaimed author Tara Kelly, Jasmine finds out what happens when her life gets Amplified.

I bet a lot of you are excited about The Iron Knight, huh? I haven't actually started that series yet but I have the first 3 books at home so I will soon. I'm most intrigued by Amplified. It sounds like a breath of fresh air in the YA genre. 

Which one are you looking most forward to?
