About the Book:
What's it like to grow up online and have every tantrum, every spot - even your first period - broadcast to hundreds of thousands of followers? A funny and heartfelt novel for fans of Geek Girl, from the award-winning Tamsin Winter.
Most parents try to limit their kids' online exposure. But not Eva's. Her parents run a hugely successful YouTube channel, and Eva is the star of the show. But Eva is getting sick of being made to pose in stupid mum-and-daughter matching outfits for sponsored posts. The freebies aren't worth the teasing at school. And when an intensely humiliating "period party" goes viral, Eva is outraged. She's going to find a way to stop the channel, even if she has to sabotage it herself.
My review:
My daughter and I loved reading the contemporary Girl (In Real Life) from one of our favourite authors @tamsinwinterauthor
12 year old Eva has been the subject of her parents' YouTube channel, All About Eva, since before she was born, and she's had enough.
5/5 from us, for the opportunity to discuss the biological and emotional changes that occur between Year 7- Year 9, the relevance of social media in school, and just a brilliant book full of drama, great characters and cringeworthy moments with heart.
Disclaimer: we received a free paperback copy of this book from the publisher, @usborne_books in exchange for a review. All honest opinions are from me and my daughter.
