Hello again!
Recently I have purchased a book and started reading again. I never intended to stop, but as a university student these things happen and sometimes reading an anatomy and physiology textbook makes any reading seem like a chore. I remember as a child growing up and my dad would ground me from reading! Even after losing all my electronics I would still read to the point he had to take that away as well. Nothing is more depressing than seeing a half finished book sitting on your counter unable to be finished until you clean your room. Being 12 was hard.
However, my favorite genre hasn't really changed since the age of 13. I love young adult novels with a love story. Something about a quirky girl who doesn't fit in find love in a boy she probably met in the second chapter in an awkward run in is my weakness.
If that appeals to you read any of these. All the same, yet different.

By the way, I have read them all
My most recent read, which I have yet to finish, is a cute book called Girl Online by Zoe Sugg better known as Zoella. You know, adorable British youtuber who makes you sigh at your screen wanting to look as cute as she does everyday. Not to mention how grounded and genuinely kind she is despite 7 million people watching her. I can't decide if I'm jealous or full of admiration. Perhaps both.

Anyways..
The book is told from the point of view of a 15 year old awkward photographer named Penny. She recently created a blog to express herself and it is gaining popularity and she continues life as her awkward self. There is a bit of romance but I am not finished so that is all I can say. It has already become like a friend to me. I mean it's something I can find comfort in and relate to despite being 6 years older than the main character.
When I read the bit of romance I can feel the emotions myself. That is why I love books with romance. They give me the chance to fall in love over and over again. Reading about a first kiss and realizing it gets my heart racing as well. I love it.
(No kissing has happened in the book...yet. Just an example.)
Anyhow, if anyone out there has forgotten what it's like to read I hope to remind you. If you don't read, I want to inspire you. Any genre, this is simply my preference. If anything, I'd at least try a manga or comic book. Still a plot/story.
That's all for today, in honor of my current read, I'll end todays blog like Penny.
Girl Online, going offline xxx
