Genre: Romance/Drama

Status: Duology (First book)

Synopsis From Goodreads: I had no idea GirlOnline would take off the way it has - I can't believe I now have 5432 followers, thanks so much! - and the thought of opening up to you all about this is terrifying, but here goes...

Penny has a secret.

Under the alias GirlOnline, she blogs about school dramas, boys, her mad, whirlwind family - and the panic attacks she's suffered from lately. When things go from bad to worse, her family whisks her away to New York, where she meets the gorgeous, guitar-strumming Noah. 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.

This book which was written by Zoella a Youtuber had tons of controversy because it is said to be ghostwritten by Siobhan Curham. Even if this does hold true, both of them put such a lot of work into this book and it was a good read. Everybody has a starting point into the world of writing and even though Zoella had a tough time, she is still amazing!

To talk of the book now, it is about a blogger who gets a little bit of fame and ends up dating a (very cute) guy who happens to be a star! Not knowing who the guy is Penny dates him and then has a lot of trouble when something is posted on her blog stating something along the lines of her wanting fame. 

The book has a bit of a cute romance, the life of a blogger and much much more.

It is definitely a decent read if you like to read romance/drama novels.

It is a nice book, but did it make me feel like it was the best thing in the world, not really.
I think my younger self would have really enjoyed it (yes the younger self who used to read Princess Diaries). But the 17 year old me definitely did not like this book as much as I wanted to.

Overall, it is a decent read.
