Janay Brazier: WHSmith Zoella Book Club Video Review

I've finished all of the books from the second round of the WHSmith Zoella Book Club, with only one Twitter Takeover night left to go on Tuesday 31st, so I've uploaded a video to my YouTube channel reviewing them all.

WHSmith Zoella Book Club: Author Interviews (Books 1-4)

As many of you reading this will probably already know, I took part in the first WHSmith Zoella Book Club during the summer and fell in love with it. I've always been a big reader but I enjoyed this book club so, so much. Zoe Sugg chose eight books that she loved and shared them with us. I joined in with their Twitter events, bought and read every book and wrote blog posts about them. So, imagine my excitement when Zoe announced that should would be doing another round of the book club through autumn/winter, into February 2017.

I was very kindly sent the whole new collection of eight books and I did an unboxing post in October (here). I noted in that blog post that I was going to keep the layout of my posts the same as last time, talking about the first four books at the halfway point and then talking about the other four books at the end. However, this time I got the amazing opportunity to ask the authors questions about their books, so rather than me talking about the books and reviewing them with my own thoughts, I'm going to post interview-style, with the questions I asked the authors and their responses. Then, at the end of the whole book club, I will review all eight books and rank them just like I did before.

So, let's get into the interviews:

Unboxing: WHSmith Zoella Book Club

Hooray, Zoella has done another round of the book club with WHSmith! I absolutely adored the last book club and enjoyed reading all eight books on offer, so when she announced in a vlog that she was doing it again I was desperate to find out which books were included.

Zoella released the official video on Wednesday 19th October (see below) and the books were released online and in store the following day.



I sat down to watch the video as soon as it went live.

I had the lovely surprise of receiving the whole eight-book collection in the post on the Friday.
