I almost didn't finish it! This book was so cheesy and cliche'. The main character, Penny is very materialistic and doesn't have much of a personality beyond a "naive red-head clumsy teen" like in every other book written for the pre-teen demographic. The other characters weren't any better. Every conflict that popped up was so quickly resolved and predictably so, that the book was not at all entertaining. Zoella has admitted to using a ghost writer, but I do believe she wrote some of this book herself. There were parts that were written very stiffly and used words like "mustn't" that were completely out of place and style. I wasn't expecting this book to be great, I picked it up thinking it would be a light teen romance to read around Valentines Day, but it just wasn't enjoyable at all.
