'Girl Online' - Zoe Sugg
As a huge Zoella fan, I had to put her new novel 'Girl Online' onto my Christmas list. Due to the fact I write a blog myself, I was really interested in reading this as (hence the name) it's about a girl named Penny who writes an anonymous blog. The story itself really reminded me of something along the lines of 'Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging' which is a stereotypical teenage girl book/film - like the Bridget Jones of today's youth! It's a classic portrayal of a teenage girls life: crushes on boys, stressful school, falling in love, embarrassing moments, confidence issues and bitchy friends. The book is charming, sweet, funny and a pleasure to read. I'm usually a massive fan of sad, tragic, epic love stories but it's refreshing to settle down and relax with a cup of tea and a book that is as light hearted as this. Zoe should be really proud of herself as she has done a wonderful job with her first novel and I'm definitely looking forward to reading any more of her future works!
