I love this series and have read it over and over again but I feel like the ending to this book perfectly summons up and creates a lovely ending but I wouldn’t say no to a new GO ;)

Love the book. A good ending. Love how there is drama and story lines for Elliot as well as Penny. I may just be emotional but I cried at one part at the end to do with Elliot.

Penny starts the new school year wondering where Noah is after he goes on a break. When Megan once again invites Penny to visit her new school, she eventually gives in. Upon her visit, Penny meets many potential new friends - fellow photographer Callum and drama student Posey. But can she move on with the ghost of Noah haunting Penny at every corner? Or will she find a way for it to work with Noah?
Out of the three books, this is way better than the second but not quite as good as the first. Once the drama started, about halfway through, I was hooked in a way. I wanted to keep reading more. There are a lot of clichés, but there were in the other two as well. I think it became apparent who the leaker was before it got told, but I couldn't quite figure out how - I had a vague idea but wasn't quite close enough.
I was kind of disappointed with the start of this book. I made it a habit of not knowing much about the book before I started reading it, so after book two was finished, I just assumed Penny and Noah were a thing again. Much to my surprise, they weren't.
I think the message this book gives to its readers, especially the younger ones, is one quite a few should hear - stop looking sideways and focus on your own goals and achievements. You don't need to knock others down to get where you need to be. There's enough glory for everybody to have a piece of the pie.
Elliott has a much more significant role in this book than the other two. He goes through a considerable learning process as he transitions from being a teenager to becoming more of an adult. He learns to cope with his emotions and realises that his parents can sometimes behave irrationally. I felt sorry for him. It isn't easy being young and feeling like everything in your life is changing drastically and all at once.
Megan greatly disappointed me. After what happened in the first book, you'd think she'd have learned her lesson about being spiteful. In the second book, she seemed nice at first, but now it looks like she's determined to be the most popular at any cost, even if it means hurting others. Megan comes across as very superficial, always more concerned about how others perceive her than her true self.
The ending was excellent. It left no unanswered questions about what happened to people and was quite poetic justice.

I totally love this book!! You can realate to so many things and feeling that Penny has and at the same time there are some things that you just dream you could have and expertens. It was so hard to put down this book because you always wanted to know what would happen next. I really hope that it will come a fourth book in this series!!❤️

Der dritte Teil war ein schöner Abschluss für die Reihe. Die Charaktere waren wieder super schön ausgeschrieben und auch die Story war gut. Ein paar der Plotlines waren zwar sehr vorhersehbar, aber dennoch ein gutes Buch.

Like the other books in the Girl Online series, this was fairly predictable. I will say though that I liked it better than the others. There was a good balance of tips for anxiety and encouraging girls to be their own person and not depend on others for everything. I realize it's typical for teen books, but I do wish it hadn't been so predictable in how everything nicely wrapped up. I enjoyed seeing Penny stand up for herself and exist a bit without Noah, as the other two books in the series were so much about him. Noah of course made his reappearance, which was slightly irritating, but I'm glad to see Penny had some backbone at the end of this novel, keeping her won secrets and finding a "true" aspect of who she is. In the future, I'd love to see some of these characters evolve more and mature, from Penny to her parents to her friends. That is for sure one area Sugg could work on, maturity of both characters and the plot. It would certainly add depth and development to this series, especially as it will probably continue past these three books and it'd be sad to not see that growth happen. But for a light read that matches Zoella's demographics, this does the trick for what it's meant to be.

This is my least favorite book in the series in terms of plot. Don't get me wrong. I loved the subplots. They were too good. Elliot's problems? Loved them. Leah and Penny? Great. Sadie Lee and Bella? They rocked. But so many things were not in place. Like the whole Callum, Megan, and Posey thing was something I could have done without. bits of it were really juicy, but most of it was really predictable. I was hoping for something that focused on Penny's friendship with Elliot. I kind of knew the end all along, but was hoping that it wouldn't be that.
