Publisher's summary

A guitar, a box of junk, and a pile of trouble...

Fifteen-year-old Otter is in a dark place.

Child Services wants to put him in foster care, or even a home for troubled youth.

Living on his own, he’s one bad decision away from the street. His band’s first gig is only two weeks away, but his crush on their new lead singer has him tied in knots.

Then he inherits a box of random junk from a dead grandfather he barely knew, only to discover that the junk is infused with his grandfather's memories. Can this "junk" help Otter win the girl of his dreams, reconnect with his family, and keep him out of juvenile detention...maybe even become a rock star?

You’ll love this touching, contemporary fantasy because it will play your heart strings at concert volume.

Get it now.

Critic reviews

“Love, loss, music, and magic, woven into an intricate pattern that smells like teen spirit. You don’t want to miss this heart-wrenching, atmospheric, gripping tale of grit, friendship, and a mystical family legacy that might be more of a curse than a gift. And did I mention music?” (Chris Mandeville, Author of the In Real Time YA time travel adventure series)

"Logan is a captivating storyteller from word one. Junk Magic and Guitar Dreams is a YA novel full of hope, adventure, grief, first love, self-doubt, self-discovery, triumph, and magic - everything I love in a book." (Rebecca Moesta, New York Times best-selling coauthor of the Star Wars: Young Jedi Knights series)

A fun story

I really enjoyed the premise of this book, the thought of the memories of loved ones echoing through our lives from the items they've left behind. It was a bit hard to listen to at times, only because I wanted to smack Otter upside the head and tell him to stop insisting on standing on his own, but overall I found it to be enjoyable and insightful.

The narrators both did a fantastic job - I enjoyed the life they lended the characters and while I haven't been a huge audiobook fan in the past, after audiobooks being the only way to entertain myself for three days after getting lasik, I'm becoming a convert.
