Book Review- Girl Online

So I have read Girl Online by the amazing you tuber and blogger Zoe Sugg and I have written a review on my personal opinion on the book.

 I have split the review into five categories:
1) Cover
2) Style of writing
3) Overall read
4) Overall plot
5) Ending

1) Cover 
                        The cover and appearance of the book is very modern and cute with instagram pictures on the front cover and every detail is so girlie and cute. The cover tells you that the story is modern and after reading the book you will understand why she chose those particular pictures.

2) Style of Writing
                 I was pleasantly surprised to find her style of writing is very funny, sarcastic and humours making this book enjoyable to read. The humour is very British and so for me was easy to read.

3) Overall read
                           For me this book was a very easy, quick, enjoyable read. It took me 2 days to read and this book made me fall in love with Noah and hate other characters. It gave me butterflies and moments of jaw dropping emotions (literally).

4) Overall Plot 
                            The plot is cute and positive throughout the book with a heart breaking twist at the end. I would recommend any teenage girl to read this book as it deals with a lot of problems we go through and will take you on an emotional roller-coaster.

5) Ending 
                  I personally loved the ending it fitted the vibe of the book. In a way a little bit predictable but this book wasn't written to be a thriller or brain taxing so it fitted the vibe of the book.

I know there was a lot of talk of the ghost writer who helped Zoe write this book, but I don't really know what the big deal is,an author doesn't just write a whole book by themselves in the same way a movie isn't written, directed and produced by just one person. She isn't a professional writer so I don't see the big deal I think its a great book and would recommend it.
