The miles ahead

Abstract

As a teenager obsessed with music, I would have loved to read a novel about band members. During college, I finally decided to close that gap in young adult literature. For this thesis, I finished a series I have been working on since freshman year about a girl and all her adventures with her brother's band. I wrote the novel for teenagers to not only enjoy, but to gain something from. I wanted teenagers to take away something from my novel while also enjoying the fantasy of hanging out with their favorite band.
