Songs from the Phenomenal Nothing

Seventeen year-old guitar prodigy Tyler Mills has become lost in the aftermath of his mother's death. Disconnected more and more from his father, he takes refuge from it all in two things: his music and his girlfriend. Everything changes with the chance discovery of his mother's journal-and the long-held family secret within that could alter his life forever. Driving a stolen car with little money and only a GPS for company, Tyler embarks on a road trip in search of the truth and some answers...but the truth looks different from the worn out couch of a had-been rock star's living room. Written with heart and keen observation about the challenges of youth and family dynamics, Steven Luna's Songs from the Phenomenal Nothing is a can't miss read.
