The Trouble with Destiny

(4) YA Liza's high-school band, which is losing funding, vies for the $25,000 prize in a competition on the cruise ship Destiny. But as the pressure--and her total cluelessness in the love department--gets to her, Liza's behavior puts the band and her friendships at risk. Though the farfetched antics drag, Liza's perseverance and (eventual) maturity make her relatable to teen readers.
