Book Review - Clarice Bean 'Don't Look Now'




Hi guys, and welcome back to my blog.

Clarice Bean is another Lauren Child fave at the top of my collection - alongside the other two in the series, spells trouble and utterly me. These books are about a young girl named Clarice Bean, who, like her BFF Betty Moody is obsessed with Ruby Redfort (as mentioned in another review) a schoolgirl detective. Throughout the books, Clarice has many adventures, including school plays, moving house, new teachers, and even starring in a new RR TV show! Cool, huh? Most of the time she's a normal girl, although a bit snappy with her brothers and sisters. But you would, wouldn't you, if you were the third oldest of four, with a brother who only talks to his many girlfriends, a sister who is fashion crazy, and a nitwit of another brother? I know I would!

 Rating: 4/5 stars 

 That's all for now.
Bye!

Improve Yourself If you see something that you don't like about yourself, work on it and change it to make it better. For example if you don't lik...

Book Review - Feel The Fear

Hi guys, and welcome back to my blog. Feel the Fear by Lauren Child is another book in the Ruby Redfort series that i've mentioned before. In this incredible tale, Ruby is facing a more ghostly adventure with Spectrum, (a secret spy organisation Ruby works for), involving unexpected burglaries, and loyalty card codes. In the first book of the series, one of Ruby's colleagues murders Valerie 'nine lives' Capaldi, right? It can't be possible for her to be alive, right? Although there is some very impossible happenings going on, in very high up places. Will Ruby face her fears and confront the enemy, or fail to prevent a thrilling finale? I'm so excited, the next book in the series is coming out soon and I can't wait to get it! Rating: 5/5 stars That's all for now, Bye!

Creating Characters - Guest Post By IndigoSky

Heya guys! Sorry again for being inactive lately I just had a complete writers block and couldn't think of any post ideas. Today's post is actually a guest post by IndigoSky (link at the bottom) about how to develop story characters.  This is really useful if writing stories is your thing, as it's easy to make them typical, boring personalities with nothing to make them stand out. So here we go! Hey guys, it’s  IndigoSky  here. Thanks to Apple Tree for letting me do a guest post on her blog! Anyway, let’s get on with this post. I love reading and creative writing, and I know that one of the hardest parts of writing a story is coming up with good, realistic, believable characters. So I’ve put together a list of rules to follow when coming up with characters: Rule 1:  People aren’t perfect. It can be very tempting to make your characters have only positive characteristics and no negative side , especially if you’re writing a romance story, or something to ...
