Chronicle In Favor Of Books Lemonade Mouth (Lemonade Mouth #1)
Poets. Geniuses. Revolutionaries.The members of the legendary band Lemonade Mouth have been called all of these things. But until now, nobody's known the inside story of how this powerhouse band came to be. How five outcasts in Opoquonsett High School's freshman class found each other, found the music, and went on to change both rock and roll and high school as we know it. Wen, Stella, Charlie, Olivia, and Mo take us back to that fateful detention where a dentist's jingle, a teacher's coughing fit, and a beat-up ukelele gave birth to Rhode Island's most influential band. Told in each of their five voices and compiled by Opoquonsett's "scene queen," freshman Naomi Fishmeier, this anthology is their definitive history.

I think this one is worth 3.5 stars.Okay, so I will most likely be biased throughout this whole review but... I think that the movie is so much better.I expected the movie to be super similar to the book but (as it always is) it was totally different. I had originally seen the movie first and LOVED it, so when I recently found out that the movie was based on a book, I needed to read it. First of all, there are some very drastic changes that were made between the book and the movie:(view spoiler)While not as good as the Disney Channel movie, this book was nevertheless a very good teen read about the power of a few people to make a difference.ETA: I reread this book in 2014 (three years after the initial read), curious whether Id get a new perspective on it. Im now four years removed from high school and eight years removed from the characters of Lemonade Mouth, so would it hold up?Ill admit I was slightly worried. At first, Charlies grammatically-challenged sections were a real irk, and
I hadn't heard of this book until Disney channel made a movie out of it (2011). (The movie was good--not quite as good as High School Musical but way better than Camp Rock 2).Lemonade Mouth is the name of a band of Five Rhode Island high schoolers (three girls, two boys) who meet each other in detention and start playing music together. The point of view switches between these five unique voices and even, at times, to other students and teachers. Normally I wouldn't like this because it takes
Enjoyable! Exactly what I anticipated and didn't feel let down at all.What I didn't like about the movie was made up for in this book, and what I didn't enjoy about the book the movie made up for. If you want to read a fun book about a band of misfits who come together to start a Revolution, grab this. You're bound to connect to one of these characters. For me it was Olivia. The shy one who has a tough time being herself in front of people. It didn't hurt that I would have had a crush on Wen
After watching the Disney version, I had a mental picture of what I was going to see. Boy was I wrong within the first few chapters. And I'm very grateful for that. The characters, minus Mo, bare no resemblance to the actors portraying them in the film. But that is beside the point. The theme of friendship, loyalty and speaking your mind really resonated within me. This isn't just one point of view, it is several ranging from the five band members, to fans and even to the bullies. Definitely a
I read this after watching the movie. The movie is my favorite DCOM and I rewatch it on a fairly regular basis, so I was curious about the book. In this part of the review I'll talk about the story in general. Then in the next part I'll talk about the book in comparison to the movie. This is a story about a bunch of outcasts forced to share a detention room, bonding over their love of music, starting a band, and leading a revolution. If you like underdog stories and Power of Friendship stories,
