Girl Online by Zoe Sugg

Rating: 3.8/5


Opening line:
“Hello, World! I’ve decided to start a blog.”

Sypnosis:

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 from 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 in her blog. But Noah has a secret too. One that threatens to ruin Penny’s cover- and her closest friendship- forever.

Review: I went into this book with low expectations. I was pleasantly surprised by an amusing main character (who also sounded a bit like Zoe herself) and a plot, that while a bit fanfictionish and cliche, was still entertaining. The worst parts of the book were the insta-love (I’ll forgive penny cause she never had a relationship and is still young) and the ending. The ending was just a bit disappointing. After everything that went down between Penny and main guy Nosh, I didn’t think it’d take like 5min to fix the relationship up (I was wrong).

Overall it was pretty entertaining if you know what you’re getting yourself into.

  1. I really want to read this book. I like Zoella and her youtube channel. I think there’s a second book coming out from her? Have you heard of it? If the book is still entertaining, I guess it’s worth a read. Great review!
