It's August 1999, and the world will end in less than four months.
At least, that's what high school sophomore Derrick Townsend hears on the television as the coming Y2K apocalypse grows nearer every day. On top of that, he's now the new kid in town, having moved to Mount Vernon a week before school starts for the next semester. Music-obsessed, he creates mixtapes of his favorite songs to help him cope with - and escape - this new, unfamiliar world.
As Derrick navigates music, love, and the end of the world, he and newfound friend AJ start a band in order to compete in the school's talent show. Derrick, however, also wants to impress Haley, the beautiful girl next door, who is also reeling from her own personal drama.
With Y2K approaching, the teenagers, contemplating the future and what it may hold, also cope with changing family dynamics and the drama of small-town life.
A nostalgic trip back into the late-'90s, Mixtape for the End of the World is a "heartfelt and heartwarming look back at being a teenager. It will make you miss the good ol' days." (Readers' Favorite)
