《Book reviews *Requests Closed*》#5: 'This popstar story' by JustRunawayFox
Advertisement
This is the story of Frans King, a famous popstar who lives a fake life, a lie. It's written by JustRunawayFox and has 27 chapters so far.
I like it. This book is good. I like the characters I'm supposed to like (ex. Frans, Thea, Victor, Fredrick) and I dislike the characters I'm supposed to dislike (ex. Timothy, Martha). The characters are well written!
It was interesting to read about the downsides of life as a celebrity for a change, so that's a plus too
The grammar/ word order isn't always spot on and there are some recurring mistakes, but JustRunawayFox has an extensive vocabulary, which is a good thing. I think the good use of words kind of makes up for the previously mentioned mistakes, but please look at this:
Oblivious: means someone is ignorant/doesn't know things
Obvious: means that something is very clear
These words are easy to get mixed up, but it was pretty annoying when the word oblivious was used when it was so obvious that the other word should've been used.
So maybe edit a little, okay?
I also liked that there were song lyrics at the beginning of each chapter, because I thought it helped set the mood. (But maybe include the titles of the songs? It would be easier for your readers to find it on the internet in case they want to listen to it. Or you can put a youtube video in the media, that works too)
There was something else I was going to mention, but I forgot. Guess it wasn't that important. I might edit it in if I remember.
I rate this story: 7!

The Viadon Project: Extinction
In the year 2080, a group of fanatics believed that the world was going to end. In order to save the human race from extinction, a man named Damian Hunts created a time machine and travelled back in time to the Cretaceous Period alongside his fellow believers. They built a massive city on the continent of Laramidia, and named it Viadon. To keep their future generations from travelling back to a broken future, Damian and the Founding Families destroyed the time machine and created a their own version of history, completely leaving out the fact that they had time travelled, and that the Mass Extinction would happen thousands of years later. Two-thousand years later, the future generations of Viadon have no idea of their ancestors pasts, but things start to unravel quickly as Time Travelers come to warn them of impending doom. Vocabulary:Laramidia: was an island continent that existed during the Late Cretaceous period (99.6-66 Ma), when the Western Interior Seaway split the continent of North America in two.
