This is SO MUCH FUN! I will definitely be purchasing a copy for the Swifties in my life when it comes out.

This book about Taylor Swift is a must-have for any young Swiftie! Bursting with vibrant graphics and eye-catching design, it perfectly captures the fun and energy of Taylor’s world. From memorable quotes to behind-the-scenes facts, readers get a glimpse into both her music career and personal journey. The inclusion of quizzes and pop culture references makes it interactive and relatable, while the insider information adds an exciting layer of discovery. Whether your child is a longtime fan or just getting to know her, this book offers an engaging, confidence-boosting read that celebrates creativity, individuality, and the power of dreaming big.

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 of information you can pick up in this fun book. Full of colorful photos, info, and fun quizzes, puzzles, and such, 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. In fact,
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. Too many cute touches to mention but did like 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.

This is a great book for young Swifties - and even I learned a few new facts. This book is full of a wealth of Taylor Swift facts and trivia, broken up into bite size chunks of information and surrounded by eye-catching and colorful graphics. This would be a great book for any Swiftie and could also help second and third graders who do biography and/or famous American reports. Will definitely be recommending for our school libraries.

This is perfect! My daughter has recently started her reading journey, so I have added a few books to my ipad mini for her to read on kindle when on the go. She loves them! Anything Taylor Swift is a yes in our household. I love having this so my daughter and I can learn all the things about TSwift!

Swifties of all ages will love this engaging title packed with vibrant photos, fun facts, and interesting tidbits about the ever-popular Taylor Swift. The book includes interactive quizzes that both test fans’ knowledge and invite future fans to learn more about the star’s life, music, and career. With its colorful design and high-interest content, this book is sure to grab the attention of young readers.
If your students are anything like mine, they can’t get enough of Taylor Swift — and this book will definitely feed their fascination. It’s perfect for skimming, reading cover to cover, sharing with friends, or diving into solo. I highly recommend adding it to your collection, and you might even want to grab more than one copy. It’s bound to be in high demand!

Featuring Taylor Swift belongs in the in home of every child and teen who is a Swiftie, no doubt. It's packed full of facts, fun quizzes, song influences, activities and more. It's both a short and sweet read but also a book you can keep coming back to, to try a new Swiftie inspired manicure or remind yourself of the Easter eggs hidden within her songs and outfits. My daughter loved this book so much and as a Mum, I found it was useful to glimpse into that world and learn a fact or two to start a discussion with my daughter.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this book to any Swiftie or their friends and family members. Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to review an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

The chapter titles are weird. And spending so much time on her "squad" was namedropping and didn't give he any kudos for her actual work. If this were made more like a Teen Bob magazine, I would understand. But I di like how they pivoted later to talk about the music videos she eotehr directed or co-directed.
There are cute activities and quizzes that are age-appropriate. Even I liked the instructions for the Eras themed manicure.
The whole book is colorful and eye-catching. The pictures are well chosen and look great.
Your young Taylor fan will love it.

This was cute! I loved magazines and quizzes like this when I was a pre-teen, so it was cool to revisit that as an adult swiftie. The quizzes did feel a bit easy, and some of the facts most people would know - but there were still some that surprised me (and like I said, I am a swiftie and a bit older so could be why!). It was cool to see the author is a certified swiftie, as sometimes things published about taylor give me pause because it feels like people are capitalizing on her hard work, but this didn't give me that vibe - just a dedicated fan looking to share her love! The photos and bright colors brought this to life - one thing I wish there were a few more quizzes and lesser known facts (ex: which era are you? quiz could be a fun thing to include). All in all this would be a cute gift for the swiftie in your life!

Adorable book about Taylor Swift loaded with facts about the singer and quizzes. Would be perfect for any Swiftie's library or any classroom library. Lots of photos and visually appealing layout. Will keep young readers engaged as they read the book.

Featuring Taylor Swift by Gena Chester is an absolute delight—fun, informative, and perfect for Swifties of all ages! Aimed at tweens and up, this book offers a well-balanced mix of engaging content, from interesting facts about Taylor’s life and career to interactive elements like quizzes and puzzles that make the reading experience extra fun.
Whether you're a longtime fan or just getting into Taylor's music, there's something here for everyone. The writing is accessible and light, making it ideal for younger readers, but there’s also enough depth and detail to keep older fans interested. The inclusion of puzzles and quizzes adds a playful, interactive touch that makes the book feel more like an experience than just a biography.
It’s clear that this book was made with Swifties in mind—there’s a lot of heart in the way it celebrates Taylor’s journey, creativity, and influence. I especially appreciated how it encourages readers to think about their own interests and talents, echoing some of the empowering themes Taylor herself often promotes.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Capstone Press for the Advance Reader Copy! This book is a joyful celebration of Taylor Swift and a must-have for any fan looking to learn more about their favorite pop icon in a fun and interactive way.

This was a cute short read that is tons of fun for any Swiftie! I’d recommend it for Swifties of all ages! Thank you NetGalley for the ARC.

This book was really enjoyable as a Swiftie. It’s definitely aimed more towards new (and younger) Swifties than the older generations. The quizzes were fun and easy to complete. It reminded me a lot of those old school magazines I used to read as a teen.

Thanks to NetGalley and Capstone Press for the digital copy of this book; I am leaving this review voluntarily.
This middle grade book about Taylor Swift gave me a deep sense of nostalgia for Teen Beat and Tiger magazines. Longtime fans will find nothing new in the book, but for newer and younger fans, this is a great introduction to Swift.
I had no idea how many times Taylor had color references in her songs, and they are all tallied up here! I thought the section on Taylor's songs and how they related to a series of ex-lovers was not needed--why give them more "airtime"?

As an adult Swiftie, I really liked this book. I tried to read it from the perspective of the age it's written for and it made me a bit nostalgic to think about how I'd find biographies in school libraries about Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen or Britney Spears, so knowing that kids and preteens will have access to such a fun book about Taylor warmed my heart.
I actually learned quite a few new facts through this book, especially about the Eras Tour. I really liked the little quizzes and games throughout and I think I'll have to try out the Taylor Swift manicure myself! My favorite part was probably the lyrical breakdown of how often each color was used in Taylor's lyrics.

A MUST read for any TSwift fan!! Loved this so much, and the quizzes were amazing! Perfect for any fan that wants to get into all the details and be a professional fan!

This reminds me of the early 2000s magazines about popstars, and was weirdly nostalgic for that reason. It's full of color and fun tidbits, but I'm not sure how much it stands out against any other type of the same thing.

This was a great mini fact book about Taylor Swift! I loved the variety of facts, activities, and questions spread throughout the book. There’s so many references to different songs, the colors she uses in her songs, and more! It’s a great additions to any young swifties collection!

The book was interesting, but it felt like something was missing. The facts were mostly the basics. I didn't really understand why her exes had to be mentioned in this book. I guess they are a part of her life and that would make them to facts, but it felt unnecessary. Else it was a fun read and I really liked the colour choices. The quizzes added a nice touch to it.

This is a quick little fact book targeted at ages 8-14. I’m assuming it’s meant to be a quick read with little depth in the subject. Long time fans will know all this information, but for new and younger fans it could be a cute and interesting book. As a grown up Swiftie I did find the section tallying her number of color references as a very cool fact! Personally, I thought there would be more quizzes and activities than there were. There literally is only ONE activity and it was to make a poster. 8-14 year olds are a lot more sophisticated nowadays and may find this book a little lacking in substance. I also think the author missed the mark when discussion who certain songs were about and should have strayed from the typical ex boyfriend reference and chosen more nuanced references, such as Marjorie and Ronan.
Thanks NetGalley and Capstone Press for the advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
