The book I'm reviewing is: Girl Online by Zoella.
I've read the book once, and I'm reading it again as I love it. Zoella made the book: interesting, funny, exciting, and at some points it made me want to cry. I'm not going to give anything away as you might want to read it. But the thing that got me all excited was the blurb. I will write the blurb as you will probably read the blurb before you actually read the book. The blurb reads:
Penny has a secret.
Under the alias Girl Online, Penny blogs her hidden feelings about friendship, boys, her crazy family and the panic attacks that have begun to take over her life. When things go for, bad to worse, her family whisks her away to New York, where she meets Noah: a gorgeous, guitar-strumming American. Suddenly Penny is falling in love - and capturing every moment of it on her blog.
But Noah has a secret too. One that threatens to ruin Penny's cover - and her closest friendship - forever.
I mean, let's be honest, the blurb makes you want to read it straight away, and that's what I find so great about a book. I think the thing that is most effective about Zoe's book, is that she describes everything and it makes you feel like you're actually there, as if you're Penny (the main character).
The other thing I love is that it's written in a first person perspective, it just makes you feel more part of the book.
The book also creates so much imagery, that it just makes you want to carry on, and the drama in Penny's life, adds extra effect to the whole thing.
The things that happen to Penny in the book, could actually happen in real life, and I think the whole realistic thing about the book, was incredibly written.
Although Zoe's videos and blogs are great, her book is just as great. Her skills in writing novels clearly proves that she can do other things, and I think that should be respected and noticed.
If I had to describe her book in one word, it would be: gratifying (if you dont know what gratifying means, it's basically another word for really really good).
If I had to describe her book in one word, it would be: gratifying (if you dont know what gratifying means, it's basically another word for really really good).
I hope you enjoyed my book review on Zoella's book, and if you don't have it, or you haven't read it already, I really suggest you do as it's such an amazing book, and you get all sorts of emotions throughout the book. The best bit is, is that not only do I love her book, but I genuinely love Zoe. She's such a lovely person (as seen from her videos), and one day I'd love to meet her.
