BRILLIANNTTTTTTTT - Rated
When my auntie gave me this book for christmas I was like what the hell is this?
But then I started reading it and cudnt put it down. Im the kind of person who NEVER EVER EVER gets into books and i really got into this one
it was so intreseting and never gave you a second to get bored i could just imagine every moment.
It really should be made into a movie and I was so sad when i finished reading it
Realised what I love about this book - Rated
I read this book almost two years ago and I still go back and read bit's of it over and over again which I never do with books. I like the plot mainly because I relate to the main character, molly throughout. I also thought it was really intresting, because most people sees being in a band and being famous as an oppotunity of it solving all your problems and making everything all better in life. It shows thought that is isn't all good and can create much bigger problems that you had before. I also love Sarra Mannings writing style, it is quite easy not to put a book down written by her in my opinion. I have read alot more since reading this book too I've noticed so that's a good thing I suppose too.
strangly familiar.... - Rated
I really didn't like this book. A lot of things the characters say are ripped from Buffy and it also draws heavily on an early noughty's film called "Girl" especially during the the Tara/Molly kiss bit. The writing has potential but it just wasn't original enough.
fun, entertaining - Rated
having previously read pretty things and had enjoyed it, really wanted to read this one. liked it more than pretty things!!! loved that molly decided to do things her way instead of going along with what everybody wanted her to do. very positive message to put out to kids.
Really very heartbreaking - Rated
Having written a rather scathing review (I now realise) of Pretty Things, I felt a need to bring balance to the universe by sticking uup for one of my favourite books. Thats this one.
Its a little hard to read in that the fun goes out of Mollys life very swiftly. The band is formed, hijacked and then things go all colours of crazy. There are tender moments (and truly only brief moments) when Molly spends secret time with Dean, or small exchanges of words with Jane and Tara, but on the whole things are shitty for her. Its a real downer to anyone who decides they want to start a band, although the message here truly reads that maturiy and age and experience and knowing who the hell you are (which no teenager really knows yet) is vital if you thrust your life into the cruel eyes of the public and media.
So yes its heartbreaking and yes its a downer, but it is also a story about a girl who believes in songs changing peoples lives who gets battered, but inevitably picks herself up, learns some lessons and sorts her life out.
