Talking To Alaska Book Review


OMG this book was so GOOD! I loved it so much the story is based on two kids called Sven and Parker we learn them not having the greatest terms with eachother at their first day of a new school and Sven is known for having epilepsy and he goes through the ups and down of his disability, which makes him have Alaska Parker gave her up years ago, since she was a puppy and Parker then realise her dog was now with Sven and Parker wanted to steal Alaska back but things weren’t easy as Parker thought it would be but she was a girl who loved her dog as Alaska at the time…

I enjoyed this book so much Woltz wrote a middle grade that explores the world of a boy like Sven going through epilepsy and he can be a role model to those who are in his shoes and Parker in the end being there for him was the nicest thing, the only part I didn’t like was the stealing that came into Parker’s mind but in the end she saw things differently and realised how great Alaska helps Sven especially when he wants to have a seizure and this was the most powerful and emotional story that Woltz have written I can’t wait to read more disability rep in her future books I loved this debut a lot that I have to give it five stars!

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
