In a nutshell: vlogging comedy with irresistible central character | The new book from the author of My Mad Fat Diary is aimed at slightly younger readers and tells the story of Millie, accidentally catapulted into stardom when her vlog about the things that matter most to girls like her (family, boys, make-up, cats) takes off. According to her mum, Millie has a good ear and a soft shoulder; she’s normally the sensible one amongst friends and family alike, but when her mum’s boyfriend’s obsessive cleaning gets too much for her she lets her heart rule and moves out to live with her dad and grandad. Yet despite her outward calm, Millie suffers from terrible anxiety. Written in a wonderfully engaging first person narrative, Millie’s story will speak directly to its audience and is funny, truthful, reassuring and very, very cheering.
This is one to recommend to fans of Geek Girl or Girl Online. ~ Andrea Reece
