Alanis Morissette Musical ‘Jagged Little Pill’ Transforms into YA Novel

by

Great book deals and freebies sent straight to your email daily: Subscribe to BookGorilla—it’s free!

From Publishers’ Weekly: While many are familiar with the concept of books being adapted into Broadway shows, it’s rarer to hear of Broadway shows being adapted into books.

Jagged Little Pill: The Novel by [Eric Smith, Alanis Morissette, Diablo Cody, Glen Ballard]

That’s exactly what happened with Jagged Little Pill, the Tony-nominated, Grammy-winning show that debuted on Broadway in December 2019, based on the 1995 album of the same name by Grammy Award-winning artist Alanis Morissette. The show was brought to life with music by Morissette and Glen Ballard, co-writer and producer of the original Jagged Little Pill album as well as a number of other notable projects. Rounding out the team is Diablo Cody, Academy Award-winning screenwriter behind such critically acclaimed hits as Juno.

Featuring Morissette’s iconic songs, the musical’s plot revolves around the Healy family—parents Steve and MJ, their biological son, Nick, a high school senior headed to Harvard in the fall, and 16-year-old transracial adoptee Frankie, who is struggling to find her voice and her place in the family. The novel takes things a step further, focusing on Nick, Frankie, Latinx transfer student Phoenix, classmate Bella, and Jo, Frankie’s “friend with some benefits.”

First published in 1971, this hilarious and wise novel marked the debut of the phenomenal Sir Terry Pratchett: The Carpet People

The Carpet People

Here’s the set-up:
The New York Times bestselling author of the Discworld series delivers “fantasy with comedic flair” in his debut novel and first children’s book (VOYA).

In the beginning, there was nothing but endless flatness. Then came the Carpet . . . 

That’s the old story everyone knows and loves. But now the Carpet is home to many different tribes and peoples, and there’s a new story in the making. The story of Fray, sweeping a trail of destruction across the Carpet. The story of power-hungry mouls—and of two brothers who set out on an adventure to end all adventures when their village is flattened.

It’s a story that will come to a terrible end—if someone doesn’t do something about it. If everyone doesn’t do something about it . . .

First published in 1971, this hilarious and wise novel marked the debut of the phenomenal Sir Terry Pratchett. Years later, Sir Terry revised the work, and this special collectable edition includes the updated text, his original color and black-and-white illustrations, and an exclusive story—a forerunner to The Carpet People created by the seventeen-year-old nascent writer who would become one of the world’s most beloved storytellers.

“Only a writer with a masterstroke of imagination could place an entire empire of goodies and baddies within the fronds of a carpet.”—Daily Mail

“The perfect starting place for young readers; seasoned Pratchett fans will just revel in his wit, his subversion of tropes and his sense of humanity . . . Small in scale but large in pleasure.”—Kirkus Reviews

“Brilliantly funny dialogue, high peaks of imagination.”—The Times

Led her down a small path to the terrified plant.

Winner of the Anisfield-Wolf Book Award for Fiction

Winner of the Gotham Book Prize

One of Barack Obama’s “Favorite Books of the Year”

Oprah’s Book Club Pick

Named one of the Top Ten Books of the Year by the New York Times, Entertainment Weekly and TIME Magazine

A Washington Post Notable Novel

From the author of the National Book Award–winning The Good Lord Bird and the bestselling modern classic The Color of Water, comes one of the most celebrated novels of the year.

In September 1969, a fumbling, cranky old church deacon known as Sportcoat shuffles into the courtyard of the Cause Houses housing project in south Brooklyn, pulls a .38 from his pocket, and, in front of everybody, shoots the project’s drug dealer at point-blank range.

The reasons for this desperate burst of violence and the consequences that spring from it lie at the heart of Deacon King Kong, James McBride’s funny, moving novel and his first since his National Book Award–winning The Good Lord Bird. In Deacon King Kong, McBride brings to vivid life the people affected by the shooting: the victim, the African-American and Latinx residents who witnessed it, the white neighbors, the local cops assigned to investigate, the members of the Five Ends Baptist Church where Sportcoat was deacon, the neighborhood’s Italian mobsters, and Sportcoat himself.

As the story deepens, it becomes clear that the lives of the characters—caught in the tumultuous swirl of 1960s New York—overlap in unexpected ways. When the truth does emerge, McBride shows us that not all secrets are meant to be hidden, that the best way to grow is to face change without fear, and that the seeds of love lie in hope and compassion.

Bringing to these pages both his masterly storytelling skills and his abiding faith in humanity, James McBride has written a novel every bit as involving as The Good Lord Bird and as emotionally honest as The Color of Water. Told with insight and wit, Deacon King Kong demonstrates that love and faith live in all of us.
