I have many things to say about this book. First off the way this book was written made it different to any of the other you tube book I have read. Unlike Pewdipie's it actually had story behind it and such and I got interested in it straight away.

Every page in the book showed something different about the world of Dan and Phil and you never knew what was coming next.

I loved the way they gave you more details about what they did when they went to other countries and what they thought about everything.

I would definitely go back and read this book again without a doubt. I'm happy this is the book that I was able to complete my reading challenge with for 2016.

5 stars.

Just to clarify, I never heard of Phil or Dan. Never. Ever. Really. I only use youtube for music, not for listening to people talk. I just spotted this book on my update feed on Goodreads, saw several people just rave about it, and also the title just sparked my interest, so I decided to see if I could find it, and I did find it!

What did I think about this book? Well, it was a really fun book, I laughed aloud quite a few times (my favourites would be the descriptions of their houses, the hamster part and the quiz about chair (though it didn't really match me, but oh well.)). The rest of this book is a colourful bundle of everything about Phil and Dan, from birth to where they are now. How they started their Youtube stuff, how they evolved from there, and how they became friends. It was really interesting and I feel like you don't really need to know them before you read this book. Everything about them is explained here, we even see some stills from their videos to photographs of them (or their hairstyles).

They also explain how to make Youtube videos, what to do and what not to do if you want to start. I liked that they added this, I am sure that people will be making use of that.

Will I be checking out Phil/Dan's videos after I read this one? Nope, I am still not interested in that side of Youtube, and I will stick to listening to music.

Would I recommend this book? Yes, even if you never heard of them before, this book is really funny and I enjoyed reading it and finding out about 2 guys who are apparently very popular.

This book is a really great way to enter their lives a little bit more, especially with the bits about their past/origins and the trip to Japan. I love Dan and Phil and this book is super fun and cute!

5/5 stars for the audiobook

 Warning: this book contains some mild fangirling

So. The book I've been waiting for since the first mention of it. And I'm sooo  not disappointed. I loved every second of listening to this audiobook and it was amazing to hear them do their weird voices and noises and just their  theirness, you get me? Although they didn't consider this book would become an audiobook during their writing process, they solved it pretty good: descriptions of pictures and emojis with hilarious comments. The bonus for listeners was so adorable! I'd definitely recommend it to the Phandom but if you're not interested in Dan and Phil, I don't see why you would read this in the first place lmaooo

(originally i gave this 5 stars but I cannot for the life of me remember what this is about)
