Rock Band – Music and Misfits Written by Leah Osakwe. Reviewed by Lyra, Age 11

I really enjoyed this book it’s all about a girl called Galaxy and how she wants to be a singer/songwriter and how she joins a band with a girl called Sabrina.
But only two people are interested in joining, Grace a goodie two shoes and Zaya, Galaxy’s little sister. During the book Galaxy struggles to balance her friendship with her best friend Kia and the band ‘Just the Misfits’ but in the end it all turns out for the best.

My favourite character was Sabrina because she is such a wild and crazy person, she was a very rebellious character. Grace was also a good character, at the beginning she was shy and not very confident, to Galaxy at least, but by the end she was confident and was ready to play her music. Zaya was also cool, especially as she had to make Galaxy let her audition. Last but not least; Galaxy the co-founder of ‘Just the Misfits’, throughout the book she learns who her real friends are and how to depend on them.

My favourite part of the book was when they performed the song they were working on, on the streets where they live. I really like how even when some boys are nasty to them they carry on, I just think that’s great.

I really like the cover illustration it makes Galaxy come even more alive, as well as the picture of ‘Just the Misfits’ so you can see all of the characters in colour.

I loved this book so much and I can’t wait to read the next one.
I give it…10/10!
