Perez, Marlene Dead is a Killer Tune, 216 p. Houghton, 2012. $8. Content: G.
Things are not going very well between Jess and her boyfriend Dominic – in fact Dominic seems to be studiously avoiding her. While Jess wrestle with that and with learning how to fulfill her roles as virago (think superhero) and high school freshman, a Battle of the Bands contest sweeps into town – and band members seem to be disappearing, or is that dying? Strange music seems to be the problem and Jess and the other viragos had better figure out the source before Dominic becomes the next victim.
Jess has really grown into her character – now I am looking forward to more about her. Keep ‘em coming Perez!
