Note that I got this book and now I own it.
This novel was one of many that took part in the library giveaway, and I got this one alongside others, but I put it off for a while until I burned through some of the books I own and I had no other choice but to pick it up and read it. When I finished it, I only thought it was okay, but it has its strengths and it is one of the more enjoyable reads I read. Gaz Takes Off starts with the first character I see, Gaz, whose last name I forgot, living in Australia (my country!) until there is a trip his school organised to New York in America, but that's where the situation went awry. Gaz boards the wrong plane, and resultantly, he goes to France; here's where the flaws surface: I can't connect or relate to the characters, as with other fictional works, but this time, Gaz Takes Off compensates by adding some humour (that's funny for once.) Gaz has such a unique dialogue, I've never seen any other character who talks like that. I liked the characters though, despite their drawbacks. Gaz stays at France for a while with some other characters whose names I forgot, then he travels to Canada out of all places where he stays for the latter half of the narrative. In the conclusion, which took up the final pages, Gaz returns to Australia, finishing the piece of literature (if you can call it one!) ( )
