Book Description

Publication Date: 15 Sep 2011

Join the UK’s hottest new boyband on their rollercoaster ride to superstardom, with the follow-up to the Number 1 bestselling book One Direction: Forever Young: Our Official X Factor Story.

In 2010 they were just five normal boys, who didn’t even know each other, dreaming of being up on stage, with fans screaming their names… so much has happened for One Direction since then!

Following their huge success on The X Factor, and the hysteria they caused wherever they went on The X Factor tour, One Direction are quickly becoming the UK’s biggest boyband, and the pop act that everyone wants to meet. And this is just the beginning…

After storming the UK charts in 2011, 2012 looks set to be the year One Direction go global!

Here, in their own official book, Harry, Niall, Zayn, Liam and Louis each tell the story of their amazing journeys in full – from teen hopefuls auditioning for The X Factor to pop superstars in the making, and now to living their dreams out. And the boys are so grateful to their fans for getting them there, they want to give you all an exclusive peek inside their world…

Stunningly designed and jam packed full of exclusive unseen photos of the band on and off stage, plus private captured moments, the incredible story of One Direction’s rise to fame is a must-have for any true fan.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING! 17 Oct 2011
By nicoletteee
Format:Hardcover
First of all the service was amazing! The book was not expected to come until the 17th of october, which is today, but it arrived in just under two weeks of my purchase! I was so happy especially since I live in australia and I thought it would take longer!
The book itself is beyond fantastic, seriously it was much larger than I imagined, lots and lots of detail about the boys. Each boy has bout 25 pages that they have written and then the rest of the book is filled with amazing photos of them! Cannot be happier with this purchase!

Higly recommend it if your a one direction fan! It's truely an amazing insight into their lives

5.0 out of 5 stars love it 1 Oct 2011
By L. MacDonald
Format:Hardcover
I love the boys, and i love this book. If you are a fan, it's a must have! It is baisically split into five sections; Harry, Liam, Niall, Louis and Zayn. Each section is pretty much the boys telling their story, from being young, to going through the xfactor, to how much their lives have changed. There is also a couple of pages of quick fire questions for each of the boys, which means that fans get to find out new facts about them. Admittedly, a lot of the book is full of pictures, however this is certainly not an issue. It is a much bigger book than i had anticipated, and i really enjoyed reading it and looking through the pictures. It is really good because as well as telling you lots and lots of exclusive information about the boys and their stories, it really tells everything from each of their points of view; you learn how their journeys have been in their personal opinions, and i think that this is great. It's one of those MUST HAVES for any one direction fan. Certainly worth the money.

By gary storey
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I rated this book 5 stars out of 5 because I love one direction and this book is amazing I got to understand Zayn, Harry, Niall, Louis and Liam much better and the pictures inside are amazing especially the ones of them when they were kids so cute! If I had to recommend this book to anybody I would recommend it to either a best friend or someone who likes one direction or wants to know more about them first before becoming a fan! Xxxx
