My New Bible!

As I'm sure a lot of you know, Zoe Sugg, aka Zoella brought out her very first novel before Christmas and it was so successful that Girl Online, has become the fastest-selling book of 2014 after selling over 78,000 copies in its first week, as well as the fastest selling debut novel ever!! Crazy I know. Now I am already a fan of Zoella, from reading her blog posts and watching her youtube videos regularly. So when the book came out I was very eager to get it. Fortunately my  dear sister bought it for me for Christmas. I must sound like a loser getting so excited about books, but I find it such a relaxing past time. 

I think this book is amazing to read, especially at the start of a new year. I started it on the 27th of December and could barely put it down, finishing it on New Years Eve. It gave me such a feeling of happiness and an enthusiasm to make so many aspects of my life better. It is such a feel good novel and stays true to what I believe, that true happiness comes from yourself. If you can learn to love who you are and be happy with what you have, everything will slot into place and life becomes one hell of a great journey.

The novel follows the life of Penny, a 15 year old anonymous blogger who is clumsy,accident prone and suffers from anxiety and panic attacks. After one too many accidents in school, she takes a life changing trip to New York where her life begins to change so much that she feels like a different person. She has the time of her life and begins to see herself as the beautiful woman she is. Her confidence grows and she becomes happier in herself.

I won't give away the story, that would be cruel. But what I will say is that this book is so empowering and amazing that it will make you want to be just like Penny!! It gave me such encouragement to do something great with my New Year. I would recommend giving it a read... it truly is inspiring!

Give it a read and let me know what you thought :) 

Lot'sa Love,
