Read my full review on my blog Blattzirkus :)! Plot Penny Porter has to reorganize her life after her big break-up with American Rockstar Noah Flynn who disappeared from the public eye. Instead of focussing on her broken apart relationship, Penny dedicates her time to something else she loves dearly: photography. Not only that but she also tackles her anxiety by visiting her childhood, sometimes good, sometimes evil friend Megan at her new drama arts school in London. There she gets to meet Callum, a fellow photography student who catches her interest but also a drama student, Posey, who has terrible stage fright. Seeing parts of her anxiety problems in Posey, she of course wants to help her talented new friend. And overcoming Noah by dating Callum is a sudden new possibility as well. Not to forget that her best friend Elliot is in urgent need of her help as well, Penny asks herself if by finally being able helping others she is slowly becoming her true self. Opinion So, that’s it. Remembering from Girl Online: On Tour I was mad how this book made Penny into a whiny girlfriend who needed a boyfriend to be happy. To be honest, it also went a bit over the top with the drama. Now that I’ve said this I am happy to announce that this book still forces Penny to have a boy in her life (next to Elliot, but we all know that Penny and Elliot are very tolerable together). And when I say happy, I mean it in a sarcastic way. I mean, WHY. Can’t she have another super drama besides boy drama? Why is this book called Going Solo when nothing of Going Solo really happened except for maybe ten pages? Do I smell a book clickbait here? For once, Penny went to a total new place and a boy caught her attention and asked for her number. And suddenly we had a bad Noah replacement to obsess about although we all knew they were not good together. Now that I’ve mentioned that, I’m a sucker for the Noah and Penny relationship, maybe because it was so over the top in the last novel that this couple simply got contagious and you learned to love it no matter how annoying it got. Yes they are sweet, yes Noah was an idiot in On Tour and yes they basically told each other that they are going to be together forever. I might have snorted at that part because it was dripping cheesy. On the other hand, very Zoe. Enough of the relationship part of this book. Who could be that traitor?! There’s a traitor in the book and it’s basically so obviously written that I was questioning Zoe really hard. Like, how stupid does she think her readers are? Or even worse: she writes a rather sharp character (Penny) who can act SO DUMB in such an obvious situation that it hurt my brain. On the other side, this can happen in Young Adult fiction, so I have a mantra for these kind of paragraphs when they happen, so I won’t rip my book apart in anger. Not to forget my all time favorite phrase in Young Adult novels was mentioned numerous times: I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Are people doing this on purpose? I thought authors were educated enough that this is a phrase no longer tolerated in the literature world since Twilight appeared? I have no words. But still… I still liked it because there was no grand relationship drama as in On Tour! Maybe because Noah was absent for a while or because it wasn’t all about Noah, what do I even know. It had a more relaxed and rounded atmosphere plus at some point of the story it was set in Scotland. And I adore Scotland, so Going Solo got a plus point for that. Also the writing has been nice and easy-going, so it was a fast read you didn’t want to finish that fast. Conclusion 4 out of 5 stars for Girl Online: Going Solo by Zoe Sugg because it was a nice, round final book with less drama and more focus on Penny herself. I’m kind of sad that this series is over since it has been refreshing to read about a young blogger with anxiety problems she tries to overcome the best she can. Plus a famous rock star side kick can’t hurt. Am I the only one how has read this trilogy as Zoe and Alfie fanfiction?

WUSAe all know there's a lot of hype and hate surrounding this series and to be honest I don't understand either. I'm not one of those Zoella crazy people, I had no idea who she was until I read her first book in the series like two years ago I think. I only found out how popular she was when I googled her. I was surprised that a YouTuber had written an actual book and I was surprised how much I actually liked it (I only learnt later about the whole ghostwriting thing though) Nontheless did I like the book a lot. I didn't expect a sequel in the first place though but then Girl Online On Tour was released and now there's even a third book called Girl Online Going Solo and since I really enjoyed the first books in the series I was really curious to find out where the story was going because frankly in my opinion a third book really wasn't needed. The first thing to remember before reading this book is to not expect anything "big". Girl Online Going Solo is nothing other than a light and quick read, a little cheesy at times though so if you're not that much into cheesy highschool romances and such maybe you shouldn't read those books. I'm a sucker for cheesy romances to be honest, I do love these books because it's so easy to just read and enjoy them. They just let you dream for a while and this is what I really love. The first 100 pages I think were a little boring, nothing really happend but it really picked up towards the end. Maybe this has something to do with the fact that I really liked Noah; always have and probably always will and I found it really really sad that they broke up. Didn't understand why anyway though. Within the first few chapters Penny meets this cute Scottish boy who makes her heart beat faster. I didn't really like him; I didn't think he was cute, he was weird and didn't seem like a really nice guy. I had a really hard time getting used to him being part of Pennys life now. Penny was really annoying at times though. She was so blind sometimes especially concerning her supposedly good friend Megan. It was more than obvious that she wasn't the nice good friend she pretended to be and I can't believe Penny was so blind. That really annoyed the hell out of me. I mean she didn't even get all the little poor attemps her Scottish wannabe boyfriend made. What I really loved though was the message behind Penny's photography project at the end. That really warmed my heart especially when Penny met one of her longtime online friends. I could relate to her so much and I'm pretty sure all of us bloggers can and this is exactly what made me like this book so much. Although I'm a bit older then Penny I could relate to her so much at times, I loved it. The ending was really exciting. A lot of drama though but I liked it. It was a very fun and fluffy read and I enjoyed it quite well; I really did like the book. It is definitely not a masterpiece and if you aren't into such romantic cute marshmallow reads you definitely shouldn't read it but if you are, this one might just be the perfect book series for you to start.

Ich finde die Girl online Reihe wirklich toll, die Geschichte ist durchweg unterhaltsam, die Personen sind sehr sympathisch und mir total ans Herz gewachsen. Das einzige was mich gestört hat war die teils sehr Jugendliche Sprache, das Buch ist aber auch eher an Mädchen im Alter von 14 gerichtet.
