A Freak's Review: Crazy Love

A simple short story about love that touches the core of your heart and reminds you of the good old days of being a teenager, Crazy Love by Eric Brown is an easy to read book that spells the first love that comes into teenage's life. Taken from the perspective of a young beautiful girl, Trish, Crazy Love brings you into a 7-days journey of a love so young yet so strong.

Trish is a popular girl in school. Her two good friends love her because she is beautiful, smart and has control of her life. Every guy in the school wants to go out with her. She is the superstar everyone looks up to while some may detest her for being such a bitch. One day, during a school trip at the zoo, Trish decides to play a trick on Denis, a nerd who no one pays attention to. She tells him that she likes him and asks him out for a date which she doesn't plan to turn up.

But things takes a different turn when she actually turns up for the date. Problem is, she can't let anyone knows about it because the beauty and the nerd could be the hottest gossip in town if it ever leaks out. So she keeps lying to her friends that she is just looking for a chance to prank Denis while she slowly and surely finds herself falling in love with him. That's until Denis finds out about her lie and leaves her.

Light, easy and simple - a book that anyone can read within 30 minutes and smile at the end of it in reminisce of a teenage life we used to have. Isn't love beautiful and innocent when we were just teenagers?

Foundations Of My Reviews

Books
I believe a good book is one that contains a strong main plot and lots of interesting mini ones to build up to the peak. It has to be written in a simple language that enables the readers to read with ease, not with a dictionary at hand. Most important of all, the characters have to be crafted in such a way that readers will believe in their existence.

Drama Series
Consistency is important as far as characterization is concern. I believe that everyone has a habit of their own that define them. And that is important when it comes to watching a drama. The presentation of the story shouldn't be too draggy as well, because it is a drama series. If it only captures attention in the first few episodes and dies down later on, then it should probably be better of as a film.

Films
A strong message behind film is really important. I hate films that teaches me nothing at the end of it, or films that simply doesn't have a beginning and ending to it. Those are just a waste of time. A good film is one that makes you nod when the credits roll out and you know that when you walk out of the cinema, it was worthy for the dollars you paid.

Games
My definition of a good game would be a partially addictive one with missions and goals to drive the gamer to want to push further in the game world. It has to be user-friendly in terms of controls and settings. The graphic has to be of standard quality because when you are into a game, it hurts when the graphic sucks.

Manga
A good manga is one that keeps you reading from one page to another, one chapter to another, one volume to another. It doesn't get too draggy and the plot must have a pull-string to drive readers to want more of it. Most importantly is the graphic - it has to have details to enrich the reader's imagination to picture the whole scene in mind.

Music
A good music is one with powerful lyrics and a suitable tune to go with it. It might not be accompanied by instruments or vice-versa. It might be a band or solo singer. The most important of all, the presenter of the song has to feel it with their heart before they present it to their audience. That's the best music ever!

Music Videos
I think a good plot is essential in music videos. The purpose of having a music video is to help audience to engage in the song through visuals. It helps to bring the audience to another world where the song makes sense in order for them to experience the music fully.

Personality
Everyone has different preferences when it comes to admiring others. I, for one, admire women who have full control of their life. I look up to women who have made it to the top in the field of their choice. A dynamic personality interests me.

Plays
The essentials of a good play include presentation, the engaging power and outstanding audio system. The storyline is just a vessel to carry out a message. What matters is how entertaining can it be while sending out that message. No one watches a boring play.

Products
A good product have both physical and emotional benefits for the users. It is also affordable and user-friendly. Most of all, it has to leave the users feeling good about themselves.

Video Clips
Lengthy does not mean good. There are some short videos that tell stories as good as a full length film does. Keeping the video short while trying to tell the entire story perfectly - that is a good video clip.
