LitPick Review
A Million Views features a kid named Brewster Gaines. He loves posting his videos on YouTube and watching his views go up and up and up, always trying to reach for that seven digit number: one million views. However, his videos have always been a little underfunded or more accurately, unfunded. He has never quite gotten there. However, when one of his actor's friends is ready to pour $5,000 into a five minute trailer for a movie that doesn’t exist, Brewster takes up the challenge. Can Brewster and his team finally get a million views? Or will it all go down in shambles?
Opinion:
A Million Views is a great book about filmmaking. There are so many things that I enjoyed about this book. The first is the pacing. The story was always moving at a pace that kept the reader’s attention. The second is the plot. The story was so exciting with many plot twists. Finally, I feel that there are many lonely children who could relate to this book and to Brewster. This is because the Brewster family rarely ever sees or talks to each other, almost never doing anything as a family. Brewster also does not have many friends.
In short, A Million Views is a amazing book about filmmaking. I give this book a 5 out of 5 and would recommend it to anyone 11-15. Go give this book a read!
