Book reviews by teens, for teens!
Hey everyone! This week’s prompt is all about books I want for Christmas… I can’t belive that IT’S IN THREE DAYS!

That was this week’s TTT! How did you do?
I’m a teenager (and a Hufflepuff) from Manchester. I like oversized jumpers, music that isn't on the radio anymore and books. Pretty much any book I can get my hands on but my favourites are Young Adult, fantasy and science fiction. One day, I decided to share some of my opinions on some great - and not so great - books to people around the world. And here it is! I really enjoy it and I hope you do too. The aim is hundreds and thousands of book reviews (see what I did there?) but I’m not quite up to that. Yet. View more posts

Haha that’s still cool! The people who did the props honestly looked like they had the hardest time, moving all the props around whilst we were chilling in the dressing rooms (and when you’re in like two scenes you do a lot of chilling 😎).

Yes! We had so many rehearsals just because those of us in the background kept messing up! We had this huge tree that we had to carry on and off, so that was awful work 😳😜 Last year our whole school had an Alice In Wonderland production, and it looked amazing!
