Do you know which of her videos Taylor Swift appeared in in disguise? True Swifties know. In fact, many can rattle off details like how many times total such and such color is used in her songs. Hint, red wins. Don't feel bad if you didn't know.. I didn't, either.
In other words, even if you're not the target age of 8-12, there's lots to enjoy in this fun book. Full of colorful photos, info, and fun quizzes, puzzles, and such, all broken up nicely, it would make a lovely gift for a young (or old) fan. It's an easy read and I liked that the activities urged readers not just to focus on Swift but on how her music makes them feel, creating such things as colorful personalized posters and such as one of a kind memories. And, never fear. The now iconic friendship bracelets get their own space.
Bottom line, this book reminds me a bit of the old teen magazines. True Swifties probably won't find much new here but it was a nice review for me, a more casual fan, and, as noted, I learned a few things in the process. I especially liked that the author pointed out some of the "Easter Eggs" Swift utilizes to send coded messages to her fans, even in her nail designs, no less. Another appreciated bit was the nod to her "Squad", showing and identifying photos of many. It's subtle proof of how much effort Swift takes to spread the credit and, yes, fun. Thanks to #Capstone for sharing this early look at a fun, color filled splash of information, facts and figures, and just plain ol' fun. I'm liking Swift more and more as I get to know her better, especially seeing her loyalty and devotion to her fans.
