Gone Series Book Review



Looking for a fun and thrilling Young Adult book? Then the Gone series may just be the series for you! With the imaginative story line and character development. The series consists of 6 books, each identifying a specific issue with survival for the young kids of the FAYZ (Fallout Ally Youth Zone).

Following the story from Sam, Astrid and the rest of the gang really left you in the edge of your seat, hungry to know more about exactly what is coming for them next. Michael Grant's clever word play worked brilliantly with this series, aiming it at the younger generation, giving them a story of so much emotion, from the happiest to the most fearful and the saddest moments. 

From the moment I started reading this series, I fell in love with every aspect of it, from the quirky powers and mutations that they had, to the character development of each of the characters. As soon as I reached the end of the last book, I was waiting to continue, only to realise that that was it for the adventures of the gang and realised that it was all over.

The books do have some rather graphic scenes throughout which may not be the most appropriate, however I feel like the gory details make the book what it is, without them it wouldn't be the same.

Out of all 6 books in the series, I really connected most with the finale, it was so powerful and moving. Michael is not afraid to pull at your heart strings, that's all I shall say without spoiling everything for you! My favourite character throughout the whole series has to be Brianna, I really enjoyed hearing her story line and her character development throughout the series!

I would highly recommend you give this series a look! You can buy the whole series here at WHSmith's (https://www.whsmith.co.uk/search/go?lbc=whsmith&method=and&p=Q&ts=custom&uid=646365246&w=Michael%20Grant%20gone&af=cat1%3abooks&preselect=yes) or even take a look into getting a free trial of audible and listening to the series on the go with you!

Pride in London 2017!

Hey there guys! So as many of you may know, I attended Pride in London this weekend! I took along two of my good friends with me, we had such an awesome time partying with the LGBT+ community! There was so much love and happiness throughout the entire event, so I was super proud to be a part of it! Here are some of the photos we got from the event, we didn't get to take too many as we were filming a lot and dancing also! I was fashioning a lovely hand made tie dye top which was from one of my original videos ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRoEfv9162Y ). I also used some lovely hair chalks which I brought from amazon, ( B Uniq Non-Toxic Temporary Hair Chalks Set - Great For Dress Up, Performance Costumes and Create A Funky Look for Children and Teens. Bundle Includes 24 Non Toxic Temporary Hair Chalks ) which gave an amazing colour pay-off, especially seeing as my hair is only highlighted, so the blonde bits came off a lot bolder than the darker sections, h

DIY - Friendship Bracelet Closures

Making friendship bracelets can be super fun! But often how exactly do you finish them? I will be going over the two main ways to finish off your awesome bracelet designs and which methods work best for which situations. The first method I will talk about is the generic closure, this is essentially the type that means the bracelet is knotted to the individual and so can only be removed by cutting it. This is the more traditional type of closure, as it is meant to symbolise the bond between two friends, so if the bracelet is cut off, the friendship is over. It is super easy to achieve, you simply start your bracelet with double the amount of strings but in half the length (You can find this information on each of the separate bracelets). You will then create a simple knot to begin the bracelet, but make sure you leave enough room for the end bracelet to be tied together. Once you have finished the design you have gone with, simply tie another knot to seal it and leave a decent
