Happy Book Birthday to THE MIDNIGHTS!
Taking place in Southern California, young-adult novel THE MIDNIGHTS is about an aspiring musician struggling to hold onto herself and her music after her father’s unexpected death uproots more than just long-buried family secrets.
We’re so happy you’re at our party for THE MIDNIGHTS. Join in the fun…
PARTY SOUNDS…
Classic rock, definitely, but with a side of howling Santa Ana winds and the distant hum of freeway traffic. (To check out the full book playlist, go here)
PARTY FOOD…
Bottomless Del Taco tacos (a SoCal staple, open 24/7).
PARTY GAMES…
Lots of music is playing. Guitars are being passed around, people are drinking a little too much… juice… and we’re all singing far too loudly, until our throats turn raw and scratchy and we laugh so hard we can’t breathe.
PARTY FAVORS…
Recycled record journals, for all our most pressing thoughts! Also red sunglasses, band pins, and moon stickers.
