All the Noise at Once

Description: "A Black, autistic teen tries to figure out what happened the night his older brother was unjustly arrested"--

Brief description: DeAndra Davis is New York-born and Florida-bred. She's a hopeless musical theater nerd (Wicked is definitely her favorite), a perpetual student and teacher, and always trailed by a kid or a dog because she has way too many of both. She has an opinion for everything, an argument ready, and a hug for everyone, and she thinks you should, too. She is the author of All the Noise at Once, winner of the William C. Morris Award for best young adult debut book, and The Lovers, the Liars, and Me. DeAndra can be found on most socials @DeAndraWrites.

Review Quotes: "Davis masterfully weaves a powerful story and elements of suspense with issues of race, social justice, and disability. Equal parts witty and heartbreaking, All The Noise at Once serves as a window into the Black autistic experience and as a beacon of hope for those our justice system has forgotten and failed. Easily one of the best books I've read all year."--Jay Coles, author of Tyler Johnson Was Here and Things We Couldn't Say
