readbyzoe 's review for:
Girl Online
by Siobhan Curham, Zoe Sugg
Okay, I didn't actually finish it. I got about 50-something pages in and gave up. I just marked it as read for filing purposes.
This book was just so cheesy and it did that thing where the writer (ghost writer in this case) is so obviously an adult but is trying to write as if she was a teenager (ex: he was the walking selfie????). Also, the main character, Penny, is the run-of-the-mill YA female protagonist with her freckles and crazy red hair and clumsiness; it just didn't do anything for me.
I really like Zoe Sugg as a YouTuber and obviously this was based off of her life, but I didn't like it in book form. I think this could have been a lot stronger if it didn't try so hard to be "so relatable" and whatnot.
Oh well, at least I tried?
