Jared Reed's life isn't what he'd hoped for. He's tired of going to school for a degree he doesn't want, tired of fighting with a girlfriend too young to understand him, and to top it all off a drunken one night stand reminds him that he's not as straight as he'd like to think he is.
When his friend Jimmy offers to start a new band, it seems like a fresh start. Something to look forward to in a sea of monotony. That is until Jimmy introduces him to their new bandmate, Conor Morgan.
The one night stand Jared had hoped to never see again.

This was a strange book. If you're thinking this might be a book about rockstars, think again. It's a band made up primarily of high-school students. And the band's lead, one of the two main characters, apparently likes them young, like 16 years old, girl or boy. That's legal in Ohio, the setting for the book, but certainly not all that laudable. Yes, the lead character, Jared, has some serious problems, but until he falls in love with his pudgy, but young, bandmate does not appear to have a conscience.Boy meets boy. Boy throws boy out in the morning. Boy meets boy again, hates him. Boy falls in love with boy - happily ever after.
All of this might mean just another run-of-the-mill, but acceptable, M/M novel, were it not for the execrable editing, which got worse and worse as the book progressed.
First of all, I don't know if it was the author's strange quirk or just bad formatting, but there were paragraph breaks in the middle of sentences:
She [paragraph] went to the store.
And then there were a host of amateurish typos, such as the brand new emotion the author inadvertently invented: "revoltion" (doesn't anyone have a damned spell checker any more? Even my browser's spell checker highlights that word, and this is just a customer review!).
Toward the end of the book, there were even repeat paragraphs two pages apart, like reading a skipping record.
I might have gotten moved by emotional content (probably not, as there wasn't all that much moving emotional content in the book), except for the endless distractions of the typos, errors in subject and verb agreement ("his intentions was...") and the like.
I am sooooo tired of paying good money for obviously defective products that no one, apparently, cared enough to proof. I respect all authors for attempting a novel, even when they don't succeed. Wouldn't it be nice if they had the same respect for me, their reader.

Static Station Lullaby edition by Amber Pitt Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
I love this book because it doesn't sugar coat the reality of messed up relationships. Especially broken teen relationships. They're not healthy, they're not functional, but they're not meaningless either. This is a book about messed up people, two messed up people in love. I don't think it glorifies mental illness and dysfunctional relationships like a lot of similar books out there.
I didn't particularly like Jared but you could definitely sense his rage and pain through the authors words which provided a very raw experience. As a first novel for the author I would say it does a bang up job of conveying exactly how painful it is to love some one who can never properly love you back. And the experience of trying to grow through and around that while still being caught in the middle of it.
Like a fair amount of books about teenage growing pains I think this highlights exactly why these types of books are meaningful. They capture the agony of growing up and show that people that young still have problems, some more so, and are just trying to live their lives and get by to perhaps a less hectic and terrible future. Definitely give this a read if any of that strikes a chord with you. It certainly did with me.
Kudos to the author! I wanted to hate this book. I hated Jared. I knew jared(s). This was such a marvelously edgy ride through the reality of mental illness and the fact that reality is still there to deal with (or not) with or without the meds(of whatever kind). The typos and grammar blips were few but still annoying to me and I wonder how these types of publications are actually, if at all, edited. It was a raw, raucous and , for me at least, a real and riveting read that has kept me up to the finish at 2 a m from 5 when I started. I really have to say that the lack of safer sex practices is worrisome on a lot of levels. I know this is fiction and so why can't it all just go away for the moment but I live in a reality that can never let me forego the admonition. Good job amber!
