Mirror Mirror By Cara Delevingne Book Review


  • WARNING THIS BOOK IS NOT SUITABLE FOR YOUNGER READERS!
  • Sex / Rape
  • LGBT
  • Alcohol
  • drugs
  • Violent 
  • Sexual Abuse
  • Grooming 
  • Swearing 

The Story talks about sixteen year old friends Red, Rose, Leo & Naomi they are misfit and they are a band which is called "Mirror Mirror" the friends got issues of the own Red got a mother who is always drinking and a dad who never around, Leo is going through a dark path with his brother Aaron, Rose drinks and flirts with boys to numb the pain of her past and we now have Naomi who wanted to run away for her freedom and is found half dead on the themes river.

the police thought this was suicide attempt she was trying to make so the three friends go on Mission to seek what happened to Naomi also going through their own personal issues and gender identity.

 the blurb doesn't really tell much of the story at all, the plot introduces Red who probably if you don't realize, you'll think she is a boy and kind of known a bit of a lesbian and cisgender for how she calls her friends "Mate"

anyway Red has a mother who drinks and their relationship has been on and off through the book and then Gracie is Red little sister Red got blamed by her mother for not being around for Gracie, the problem is Red is known to like girls so this book is a bit targeted toward LGBT community so you learn more about her and her feelings toward girls.

 Leo is also struggling with his brother Aaron who takes drugs and is always giving their Mum a hard time Aaron also doesn't like Red and always calls her the "it" because he cannot stand her for some reason. 

Rose is also facing issues with her past from a boy she loved when she was fourteen and the break up really destroyed her and changed her life from the time, so she likes to hang with boys and drink to numb the pain from the experience she began to hang out with Mr Moon, who was later reveal as Mr Smith their music teacher apparently he flirts with girls and abuse them so it turned out Rose was with him for her actions and behaviors 

I really adored this book because it shows how Cara loved young people even though it was Co-Written you could feel the rawness of these characters and how this book represented London and the areas and everything and this book was well researched and made big impact on young people today and capture a lot of things youngsters go through everyday now.

 that we have social media everything is now judged and sexual and arguments with friends you can have at school, over a one boy you have a crush on, all these feels are captured in this book also family life not getting along with your parents there so much in this novel that makes you go "WOW!".


Thank you for listening to this review.

Tweet Cute Book Review

This book feauture two teenage characters who two parents own the restraunt and they are called Pepper and Jack then they develop a romance through a chat App called Wazuel where all the students talk together Jack was the boy and creator of the app that his parents didn't know he was a part offf and the school didn't too this changes his world upside down until he meets Pepper a girl in his class that, they both kept talking which tranform their relationship into Twitter and the whole thing becomes a trending hastag between the two they had to solve it out before it was too late.... I didn't love this book to be honest I felt bored reading it because there wasnt anything interesting a lot apart from the whole twitter drama and I wanted it to be more punchy, I found the writing style to be quite cringe and slow reading and I didn't have any connection for anyone in the book at all maybe apart from Jack I did, I found him to be quite a dorky cutie to read about anyway I ...

The Idea Of Tommy & Daniel

Hello Everyone welcome back to another blog post! Today post is actually a special one since "The Step Love" turns one year today and I asked everyone what plans I should do and by the way I loved the answers from bookstagram but I decided maybe I talk about how Tommy and Daniel came to reality for me to talk about them all the time to you guys. I remember it was 2015 and I was sitting in my room thinking of what else to write then this boy appeared into my mind and I thought about it twice then I saw another boy came as his brother then that's where I saw a Tommy and his little brother Daniel, then I started to see a boy and a girl forming something together and that's how Sarah and Tommy came then other more people plus Harriet too and the ideas for making Tommy and Daniel are not really my strength or anything, I think God knew I was an author since I was writing The Little Bear Stories and I wrote The Last Day Of School Term in 2010 then I took a long hiatus...
