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.

I love this book! I have read it so many times now and it never gets old. I love Penny but Elliot has got to be my favourite. He is so hilarious and witty and so supportive of Penny. I can just imagine Elliot’s outfits when I read the books and they are amazing! I love the bits about Pennys anxiety because they are a good asset to the fun, easygoing book. I think Penny and Noah are awesome together as well. Ilove the characters and the plot. I strongly recommend this book to ages 12 + and for anyone who loves a romance book.

I absolutely loved this book! I’ve read heaps of books over the years but this one, is by far my favourite. I love how anxiety is expressed throughout the book, and the coping methods that come along with it. From a sixteen year old girl, who struggles with anxiety, As well as this, I really admire how the book wasn’t just based on a stereotypical, love story. Like some other books I’ve read in the past. It’s about teaching young girls about the online world, as well as how to deal with fear when confronted with it. I’ve reread this series three times and I’m more than happy to reread it again. And also; I would really like to see this book adapted into a movie.:):):):):)

I recommend the Girl Online series by Zoe Sugg. (I read the first in Literature circles.)
This series follows Penny Porter, a teen with anxiety that suffers attacks often. Penny also writes a blog online that helps her feel safe. This series has quite a bit of romance, although there is the underlying theme of Penny trusting herself, and growing emotionally.
I recommend this series for ages 12 – 15/16
In this book we follow Penny. Firstly something really embarrassing happens (no spoilers), and she ends up going to New York. In New York, she meets a guy called Noah. In short they fall head over heels for each other, and there are a few romantic moments. But, when Penny goes back to England, she discovers a hurtful secret that Noah never told her. It breaks her heart, and she gets really upset. The question is; can they solve it???
My favourite character in this book is Elliot, he is so funny, and although he hurts Penny (Penny hurts him too though), and Penny hurts him, he still wants to be friends with her.
This book has a really slow entry, and it is especially in the last half (specifically last quarter) that it picks up.
I give this book a 7 – 7.5/10

Girl online was an amazing book that I really enjoyed, there was lots of parts of the book that kept me on my feet and shows the struggles of anxiety. There were some characters that really got on my nerves and some characters who seemed really nice. Although this book was for my Lit circles I couldn’t help but recommending it especially to people that are doing Lit circles with this book as one of their options. If I were to give it a rating out of 5 I would give it a 4 because although it is a great read some bits are a bit, well… cheesy.

“Girl Online” by Zoe Sugg is a fantastic novel that is uplifting with an unexpected ending. It’s about a girl called Penny Porter who lives in the UK. One day she starts to write this anonymous blog. In the blog, she tells everyone about her life and all the things that are happening to her. Like her panic attacks that have been happening since she was in a car crash, and how she has been bullied at school. She writes about this because her readers then give her advice on what to do. About a year after starting this blog, Penny’s family goes over to America where she finds a guitar-strumming Noah. She falls in love with him, but Noah has a big secret that he can’t bring himself to tell Penny. This book is really good and I recommend it for ages 10+. My favourite character is Bella, Noah’s little sister. She is sweet and is just like me when I was little: loves barbies, princesses and her family. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves Romance and Drama, and I rate it a 9/10!!!

At first, I was SO sceptical about Girl Online, and I thought it would be totally boring. But after reading it, my opinion has definitely changed. Although Youtuber Zoella isn’t the greatest author, this book portrays lots of messages and takes you on an emotional rollercoaster. I would recommend for ages 11 – 17 years old. You can definitely emotionally connect to all the characters, (except maybe Megan!). This is a great story of an international romance with lots of twists and turns that keep you interested. Highly recommend and if you are considering reading this, you should go for it! It’s a great read and enjoy!

This book is one of my favourite books. It is about a girl called Penny who lives in Brighton. Life for her isn’t going so well at home and school, she even starts to have panic attacks that she hopes doesn’t take over her life. Her family go away for Christmas in New York for her Mum’s job planning weddings. Penny meets Noah by accident and gradually they start to fall in love. But Penny doesn’t know the secret that Noah is keeping from her. My favourite character is Elliot, Penny’s best friend. I really like him because he is such a good friend to Penny and he is always there for her. He is very fashionable and has a bubbly personality. Her is so funny and he loves telling people random facts. My favourite part of this book is when Noah and Penny first meet, on “Magical Mystery Day”. It is a romance story about Noah and Penny. The places they go sounds really fun and the people who they meet are very nice. My least favourite character is Meghan because she is so mean and fake. She tries to make Penny’s life miserable and a lot of the time it worked. When Penny is always there for her. At the start of the book Penny so called best friend Meghan treats her like dirt and posts an embarrassing video of her on the internet. She makes fun of Penny all the time and makes her feel really bad about herself. I highly recommend this book to people all ages.

This is one of my all time favourite books. It’s about a young girl called Penny who suffers from anxiety, when her life can’t get any worse her family ships her off to New York, there she meets Noah. Penny learns to trust Noah yet Noah is hiding something and Penny seems completely oblivious to it. I highly recommend this book. it is very well written by Zoe Sugg who also happens to be an amazing video creator on Youtube, with her millions of subscribers its not a surprise this book went to number one on the charts all over the world. Girl online is partly based on Zoes own life. Like Penny she also suffers from anxiety and panic attacks which I supposed is why she has gained so many followers, people feel like they can relate to her. I highly recommend checking her, this book and her 2 sequels out and she has another book coming out soon too. She obviously works very hard on what she does and puts in 100% of effort for her followers. I think any one from the age of 12 up would enjoy this book and I would rate it a 10/10.

I loved the book girl online because I think it can relate to many teenage girls and I like how it realates to girls in this modern age. I loved the moment when Penny first laid eyes on Noah and how initially she thought that he was a crazy person. Penny didn’t change herself because Noah and others liked her for who she already was.

The book girl online has been one of the most favourite books I have read and I’ve really enjoyed reading about the life of Penny Porter. This book is amazing because the main character deals with the problems that are important in society and she faces her fear of overcoming anxiety. Penny Porter finds the most effective way she can face her problems such as anxiety, boys, best friends, embarrassing moments and much more is by starting her own blog, called Girl Online. I really love how in this book it includes the struggles of teenage girls and it shouldn’t matter what other people may think or how they might judge you. this book is filled with Adventure, humour and romance, a bit unpredictable and thats what makes it interesting to read. I really couldn’t stop reading this book because I really wanted to know what would happen to Penny, so I would give this book a 9/10.

I absolutely loved reading Girl Online. It is a fun read that is sure to bring a smile to your face, but also trigger some sad emotions, and is very educational about the struggles people with anxiety face.

On her holidays Penny will go an adventure of a life time. Reading about her adventure is so fascinating, and the author Zoe Sugg writes it so well that you feel like you are actually there experiencing everything. The romance is very cute, and warning if you read this book you will fall in love with Noah. He adds some humour to the book that will make you laugh.

But despite how dark events seems to be for her, she always finds a ray of sunshine within her to face her difficulties (that’s what I admire most about her).

Elliot was a funny character. I loved him most of the time but there was some times when I absolutely hated him like when he left America and did not contact Penny for a while, but in the end he was a great character.
Megan was one of the meanest characters that I have come across in any book that I have read. she was rude towards Penny in every way possible and was the “Drama Queen” that most books have. I really disliked Megan.

I loved girl online because it is a book that many people can relate to/ have experienced. In the book, the main character’s name is Penny. She lives in a seaside house In brighton, England. Penny was involved in a car crash a few months ago and ever since has been having panic attacks. Penny’s mum is a wedding organiser & when her Mum has a new wedding to organise In NY, the whole family has to go with her. Penny meets a boy called Noah while organising the wedding, who turns out is keeping a big secret. Penny is my favourite character because whenever she’s in a situation, she always finds the easy way out and deals with it easily. I think many people could look up to her that way and take advice from reading this book, if they are experiencing the same problem. Girl online is perfect for people who love to be creative, like online blogs & photography. I recommend 12+ – romance, chick lit, private life & dear diary.

I love ‘Girl Online’ because it is such an endearing captivating book for teenage girls. I will try not to spoil anything but it the book is about a girl called Penny who loves photography and blogging, but gets quite severe stagefright and a fear of heights. When her parents tell her she is going on a holiday to London, an abundance of interests present themselves. The rest, you will have to read to find out! My favourite character is Noah because he is such a kind, down-to-earth and selfless person towards everyone. My favourite part would be when Penny and Noah first meet because it really adorable. I really enjoyed this book and couldn’t find anything I wanted to change or a least favourite part/character at all (except for Megan). I would recommend this book and it’s sequel ‘Girl Online: On Tour’ to any teenage girl who loves a romantic and funny adventure.

Girl Online is a really good book. I’m a very big fan of Zoe Sugg or Zoella to many people. I enjoyed reading the book so much, I like how the character Penny is similar to the author. From watching Zella’s youtube videos and reading her blog, you can see the similarities between the two and I like that. That we get to learn about Zoe from her character, Penny. The way the story is written and set, it great! It shows how much time Zoe had put her time into it. The storyline also flowed really well, I like how the story mention about anxiety and depression. I really believe this book is a great way of reaching out to other teens who suffer with anxiety or depression. It’s also great, to know that there are others also experiencing the same thing. Zoe (the author) has told us many times, her experience with anxiety and I like that she put some of her experience into the book. Letting us, readers know that someone from the youtube community feels the same as us. It’s a great book for many people to read. Even tho it’s from a character point of view, not the actual author. Your still able to think your actually reading through Zoella’s not Penny. But as I said before, the similarities between the both of them is insane. I would highly recommend this book to everyone, no matter how young or old you are its an fantastic book to read. I would rate this book an 10/10 for sure.

I think that Girl Online is a fantastic book that is so relatable to this generation, as our lives have become evolved around social media and technology. It is a story about romance, adventure, and overcoming your biggest fears, full with twists that leave you in shock. I think that readers would be able to easily relate to what Penny is going through, maybe not quite to that extent, but on some level of similarity. The story is about Penny Porter who lives in Brighton with her mum, dad, older brother, and best friend Elliot, and has recently been struggling to understand how one of her friends has completely changed from a girl who brought flowers to Penny when she was upset, to a girl who only ever talks about herself. Penny finds her escape from the hassle of the outside world by blogging about things that are going on. When she goes to New York for her mum’s work, she meets a gorgeous boy named Noah who she falls in love with each moment she is with him. But the thing is, he has a secret that brings Penny’s world crumbling down. She eventually works out that a whole new world is online, with people saying rude things about her that they would never say to her face. Throughout the book, qualities of friendship, loyalty, and trust are shown, and I think that Zoe (author) has done an absolutely fantastic job! I would recommend this to 12 or 13+ and rate it a 9/10.

This book has so many ups and downs and it feels as if you are going on the same journey as the characters. Penny is an excellent role model to all teenage girls and she is a really friendly and nice person. There were so many things I could relate to in this book and I felt so connected to the characters. The end of the book happened so fast and there were so many things happening but I loved the twist at the end and there was a happy ending even when things seemed hopeless. My favourite character was Noah’s little sister, Bella because she was so confident and she had gone through so much but she stayed strong. I would give Girl online a 9 out of 10 because it comes very close to being the best book I’ve ever read and I couldn’t put it down but it did get a tiny bit boring in some parts. 😉

Girl Online is a truly inspiring book that is super engaging and well written. It gives perspective and educates teenagers growing up on important topics such as anxiety and depression. It explores these topics in a sensitive and professional way that can really help young girls and boys to feel at ease and as though they are not alone. It teaches key lessons everyone faces when growing up such as how to overcome hard times. It’s very clever. I fell in love with the characters and didn’t get bored reading it once. I found myself gaining more knowledge on important topics and gaining a new point of view and personal opinion. I recommend this book as it educates young adolescents gently, preparing them for when they are older and making them more self-aware. I love the book, and the author as she is a youtuber and has made very insightful and helpful videos on her youtube channel about these important topics. She’s an inspiration and I hope for more videos alike that in the future and possibly more books from her as she has a lot of potential for someone so young! Girl online is an amazing book.
