Paradise Island: A Sam and Colby Story

Product Information

Honestly, I read it bc I'm a huge Gaby Triana/Gabrielle Keyes fan. As someone almost old enough to be Sam or Colby's mom had I made different decisions in HS (and had the pool of potentials not been little Eminem wannabes) I was skeptical about how "bro"-y this book would be.

It wasn’t outstanding writing, but I enjoyed it. But then again is there the fact that I know them so I recognise their characteristics and know how to interpret actions and sayings that people who don’t know them wouldn’t. Overall, I enjoyed this book. I generally enjoy stories like this, but there were a few moments throughout the novel where things just fell a bit flat. Speaking of being arrested, there was a moment where SNC were contemplating escaping to the beach and they had a conversation if it was worth being arrested again. I really loved that, especially with how much fans joke about them inevitably being arrested again.There was a nice sense of nostalgia throughout, specifically when they brought up their YouTube channel, their Vine days, them being arrested, wining a Teen Choice Award, and Corey and the Shadowman. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and reminded me of how proud I am for how far they’ve come. One of the most noteworthy aspects of the resort is its 10,000 square foot terrace, which overlooks the marinas across the harbor. Rooms at the hotel offer views of Paradise Island, and also a mini-fridge. Just how meta the book was. Like, the quote I included at the top? I laughed for way too long when I read that. One of the largest water-themed attractions in the world, the 141-acre waterscape of Aquaventure is the beautiful blue centerpiece of Atlantis. Featuring over 20 million gallons of water, 18 thrilling water slides, and a mile-long river ride incorporating waves, rapids, tunnels and more, the only thing missing at Aquaventure is…you. Ocean Club Golf Course The depiction of the paranormal things was really great. I feel like those parts were the ones I could get most into the story. The way Gaby wrote them was so interesting and pulled me in. I wish there was more of these moments throughout the story, because I think they really showcased who Gaby is as a writer.

Visiting the North Shore had been a bizarre and unsettling experience, to say the least, but when they got home after vacation was over, he was going to suggest to Colby that they make a video about it. After changing their own lives drastically, Sam and Colby wished to teach other people the same life lessons that they had learned through their friendship by creating content based around humor, authenticity, and exploration. It’s been the exploration, particularly around spooky and sometimes paranormal places, that has caught on like wildfire with their audience. They’ve taken millions of fans along their journeys into the lesser known, seen, and understood spaces of our planet. While their videos cover a broad range of their experiences, there are plenty of untold stories, sometimes scary and sometimes funny, around their stranger run-ins. Gaby Triana writes some pretty scary stuff but took it up a million notches in this book. "Make the benign and beautiful terrifying" is done masterfully in this book. Had never heard of Sam & Colby (not really big on YT) but they have me hooked after this! Alex betraying the boys? So interesting! This was one of the few things that made sense in terms of them being drugged. But then when he was betrayed when Pauahi (who’s name was misspelled a few different times in the book) escaped? Ugh, amazing. We love instant karma like that.

For children, Atlantis isn’t just a mythical lost world: It has one of the coolest kids clubs anywhere! Atlantis Kids' Adventures offers supervised activities and wondrous expeditions for children ages 3-12, and features interactive games, an imagination station, arts and crafts, culinary lessons, wizardology, theater, performances, outdoor play, and more. CRUSH The characters in Paradise Island are well-developed and relatable. Sam and Colby's dynamic personalities shine through, and their friendship with Trey adds depth to the narrative. The inclusion of a wealthy and eccentric widow rumored to be a witch adds an intriguing layer to the story, creating a sense of unease and mystery. Playa Flamingo Beach is located a 20-minute walk (or a 4-minute drive, we're lazy, this is easier) away from the hotel. Atlantis features five distinct hotels in which to stay: the grand, iconic towers of The Royal, the family-friendly ambiance of The Coral, spacious waterside villas at Harborside Resort, all-suite luxury accommodations at The Cove, and residential-style living at The Reef. Guests can choose from an impressive collection of restaurants, bars, and lounges with celebrity chef culinary masterpieces, including Fish by José Andrés, Nobu by Nobu Matsuhisa and Paranza by Michael White.P ool Bar - chillax to the max with an ice-cold drink from the poolside bar (don't miss the BBQ there, too!) The start was so calm and like any vacation would go, mostly planned. But then visiting Trey and all. That messed everything up, it all began from there, it was suspicious from the beginning, being so far from civilisation. This story proved that some go insane over something like that it so insane to think about. I feel bad for Trey, his life was wasted for something so small, I cannot even imagine what it's like. Honestly this book was something else completely, I usually read romance or such but this has actually made me see more what the world can be like.
