“It’s as if there are six strings inside him, tuned to the
same pitches, and when the guitar is strummed it cause his sting to ring out,
too” (p. 22).
Tripp is a loner type, who loves to play the guitar. He is an
odd character and very often speaks his mind. Lyla is the first chair cellist
in the school’s orchestra. She is Lyla Marks, who has perfect grades, perfect
friends and everyone adores her; however, Lyla is keeping a deep secret that
she feels she cannot share with anyone.
The story mainly takes place at Rockland school. The
characters Tripp and Lyla are both going through communication issues with
their parent. Both are feeling pressured by their parents to be involved in
activities they do not want to do.
Is there ever a time when you “thrum?”
