5 Books to Make You Feel Like A Star


Books are amazing. Let me just state that for the record. They can take you to places you've only imagined or dreamed about. And can even change the way you look at the world around you.

But the best kinds of books are the ones that show you how the other half live. The ones that let you be a rock star for a while or a big time movie star. So, with that in mind, here's a list of the 5 books I've read that made me feel like a star.

1. "Guitar Girl" by Sarra Manning





Besides the Bible, this book is probably my favorite book. It's funny, it's relatable, and it's about rock stars. What more do you need? It's about a British girl named Molly who starts a band with her friends and shoots to super stardom. The story follows the group as they journey from a little garage band to the big time. Along the way, Molly finds love, heartbreak, and the adventure of a life time.

2. "Diary of a Teenage Girl: Chloe series" by Melody Carson 

Like "Guitar Girl" this series is a about a group of friends who become stars, Christian rock stars to be exact and they have just as many problems as Molly. There's actually 4 books in this series so you feel like you get to know the characters better. Just like the title suggests, the books are written like a diary, so it gives it a realistic quality. It definitely taught me some things and I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for a good series to read next.

3. "Secrets of my Hollywood Life series" by Jen Calonita

Jen Calonita is an amazing writer and this series doesn't disappoint. It's about a teenage TV star named Kaitlin Burke who wants to be a normal girl. So, with the help of her glam squad, she goes incognito and enrolls in high school. There she meets mean girls, disgusting lunches, and a cute boy who has no clue she's really his celebrity crush. It's a really great story and you can follow Kaitlin's story from book 1 to book 6.

4. "Audrey Wait!" by Robin Benway

This story is actually told from the point of view of a girl who's ex-boyfriend wrote a song about her and got famous off it. She inspired him to write a hit. Who knew? Well, this is about what happens when the world finds out Audrey's identity after the song hits the charts. It's a funny, quick, and interesting read. It poses the question: what would you do if you had paparazzi stalking you for being the inspiration for a song?

5. "Braless in Wonderland" by Debbie Fisher Reed

Debbie Fisher Reed wove a great story about a girl named Allee who gets scouted at the mall by a modeling agent and moves to Miami to follow her dreams. She makes some interesting friends and gains some confidence, but she also learns that the modeling world isn't what she thought it'd be and ultimately wonders if there's more to life than just modeling.

The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill by Julie Klassen

Image
Hello, everybody, and welcome to today's post. I just finished Julie Klassen's novel The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill and I must say it was one of the most entertaining books I've read so far this year. Julie Klassen is one my favorite authors and with her new book series she's outdone herself. If you're a Downton Abbey or Jane Austen fan definitely check out her books. She has an undeniable way of transporting you back in time and making you feel like you're right there with the characters. And this book wasn't any different.  The story begins with Jane Bell grieving the loss of her husband, John, who was killed in a carriage accident. In his will, John leaves his family's inn to Jane and she feels completely incapable of taking on the responsibility of running it. Luckily, her mother-in-law, Thora, moves back home and tries to help Jane learn the ropes of innkeeping. But for now let's jump into the review >>>>> The Characters This...

The Ladies of Ivy Cottage by Julie Klassen

  Hello everyone and welcome to another book review. Today's book is The Ladies of Ivy Cottage by Julie Klassen and it was a really good read. It's the second book in Klassen's Tales of From Ivy Hill series and let me tell you I can't wait to get my hands on the next book. I love all things set in Regency England - from movies to books - and I've found that if you're looking for a fantastic Regency book you've got to check out Julie Klassen's books. You won't be disappointed and this book was no exception.   If you read The Innkeeper of Ivy Hill then you have to check out the next installment in the series. This book picks up right where the first one left off and I found myself falling back into Klassen's world. Ivy Hill reminds me a little of the community I grew up in - everybody knows everybody and everybody wants to know everybody's business. But at the end of the day everybody really cares for each other.   But on to the ...

Vampire Kisses by Ellen Schreiber

If you liked Twilight then you'll love the Vampire Kisses series. First off, this series has 9 books and each one is better than the last. But personally, the first book has always been my favorite. This book had me laughing out loud. Honestly, while I reading some of the dialogue I started giggling like a loon. My mom was like, "Are you ok?" And I couldn't answer her because it would've taken too long to explain where I was in the book. Talk about #booknerdproblems. But let's jump into the review, shall we >>>>> The Characters: This book has a few characters but the main one is a girl named Raven. Raven is the only goth girl in her town aptly called Dullsville and while she does have 1 best friend (a farm girl named Becky) she's kind of a town outcast because of her cryptic style. But she's got a great sense of humor and doesn't let the haters get her down, especially not Trevor - the most popular boy in school who has ...
