Seventeen-year-old Violet Shade leads a life of music. The catch? The U.S. is no longer united, and all music is banned completely. The Muses (the leaders of what is now called Euphoria) have burned and drowned everything they can get a hold of that doesn't fit their "standards" of what music should be. All the teens have been separated from their families and put in prisons far away from each other. Yet, deep in the city of Muse, Violet and her brother, Casper, have started a movement; one full of talent, lyrics, and of "noise". A movement that's about to knock the Muses off their feet. Music Isn't the Noise is my dedication for all music-crazed teens who could never live without music. :) Hope you enjoy!
