Crossroads: Britney Spears: Movie Tie-in Jr Novelization

by Britney Spears

Britney Spears is the ultimate pop star of "generation now". CROSSROADS is her first major feature film--a coming of age "dramedy" with music.


By turns poignant and playful, CROSSROADS is about three childhood friends, grown apart. One is a brainiac [Britney]; one a status-seeker; one a burnout. During an unplanned cross country journey, they rediscover the bonds of friendship. Scholastic’s CROSSROADS novelization features souvenir photos from the film.

Britney Jean Spears (born December 2, 1981) is an American singer, dancer, songwriter, actress and author. She has sold over 83 million records worldwide according to Zomba Label Group. The RIAA ranks her as the eighth best-selling female artist in American music history, having sold 32 million albums in the U.S. Her success as a recording artist has allowed her to work in other media; she has acted in film and television, has written two books, and has been contracted to endorse several products, including her own perfume line.

Spears released her debut album ...Baby One More Time in 1999, propelling her to international stardom. It spawned the Billboard topping single "…Baby One More Time". She released her second studio album Oops!… I Did It Again in 2000 with continued success. A third album Britney was released in 2001, followed by the release of her fourth album In the Zone in 2003. The album's breakout single "Toxic" won Spears her first Grammy Award. After the release of a remix album/greatest hits collection, she released her fifth album Blackout in 2007.

As a result of her fame, Spears's personal life has received much media attention. This only escalated after her marriage to Kevin Federline in 2004. She gave birth to her first child, Sean Preston, in 2005 and to her second child, Jayden James, in 2006. The couple's divorce in November of the same year was highly publicized, followed by an ongoing custody battle over their sons.

[Betsy · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book is very identical to the movie called "Crossroads" that starred Britney Spears. It is about the three best friends from childhood who grew up to be apart until the evening of the high school graduation that brought them together to go on a road trip to seek out their desire that they once wished for when they were little. Read on to find out more! It is a very good book, and it may not be for everyone.

This was almost as good as the movie. Some key scenes and lines are missing but I understand it’s a junior novel and can’t have of the more adult things in there. I’m rewatching crossroads as soon as possible. My childhood ❤️

i only read this because it’s short to get me out of a couple month long slump + i love the movie, but it actually wasn’t bad for being a children’s book adaption of the movie. I was expecting them to change/leave out a lot more than they did.

It was a cute story, very short not long at all. Crossroads is based off the screenplay of the movie.

This book is about three best friends who were very close in their childhood who grew apart until the evening of their High School graduation. The night of graduation it brought them all back together. They then decide to go on a road trip together to see if they can find the desire that they once wished for when they were little. It was a beautiful story and also a very quick read I do have to admit I do love the movie though but also the book was okay but the movie was just amazing.❤❤
