《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!

Mages and Wizards
It was just as it was everyday in the Fairy Tail Guild Hall; tables were being thrown, chairs were smashed and brawls were happening in every corner of the hall. It would have been a normal day if it wasn't for an old man with a long white beard coming into the Guild Hall with a. . . strange request, to say the least. He wanted the (illustrious, infamous, incredible) Fairy Tail Guild to protect his school-"Hogwarts"-as he calls it, from someone called Voldemort. Someone especially dangerous according to the man, as well as a person who is believed to have teamed up with Zeref, of all people.Under the threat of the black wizard, Fairy Tail accepts. Now, it's up to the Guild to stop them both.DISCLAIMER: Fairy tail and Harry Potter do not belong to me, they belong to respected owners, Hiro Mashima and J.K Rowling, I only own the plot.

Summoning America
Entirely cut off from Earth, the United States finds itself in a scientific impossibility: the entire country, including the continental landmass and separated states and territories, was transported to another world. Unlike Earth, this new planet boasts phenomena unknown to science. Magic reigns supreme in this new region of the universe, bolstered by the natives' own scientific progression. Monsters roam wastelands and dungeons, subsisting off unfortunate travelers, local fauna, and sometimes even entire towns! Ambassador Samuel Anders is tasked with contacting the various nations and entities of this new world. Despite his best attempts at diplomacy, the arrogance and hostility of the natives prove to be an unnavigable barrier. War is the only alternative. Eventually, fears surface regarding an ancient evil: the Ravernal Empire. How will the United States handle the threats of this new neighborhood? What magical wonders will its adventurous citizens find? This Summoning Japan inspired work will follow the United States as it is summoned to a New World. The story will begin with the United States’ initial encounter with the Rodenius continent. Although starting similarly to the original story, Summoning America will begin to diverge greatly as the war against the Lourian Kingdom comes to an end. For the context of this work, I expect that you have already familiarized yourself with the original piece, “Summoning Japan” also known as “Nihonkoku Shoukan”.
