Table of Contents

"Alternately heartwarming and heartbreaking, Harmonic Feedback is a book about acceptance, exclusion, joy, pain, love, loss, and finding your way in a world that makes no sense to you. In short, it is a very real view of what it means to be a teen today and a fine first novel for Tara Kelly."

—Ellen Hopkins, New York Times bestselling author of Tricks, Identical, Crank, and Glass

 

"A beautifully written novel." —Elana, age 15

 

"This is a nuanced, sympathetic portrait that earns its hard-hitting climax." —Kirkus Reviews

 

"Fans of Rachel Cohn and David Levithan’s Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist (2006) will recognize similarities in the dialogue and romance between music insiders, but this title leads to a sobering, tragic ending that underscores the message that all teens, regardless of how they’re wired, struggle to find connection, meaning, love, and purpose." —Booklist
