Zoella's Mega-seller Represents The Future Of Youth Publishing

Book2Book Friday 05 Dec 2014

It's a moment. Apparently from nowhere, a Young Adult novel, Girl Online (Penguin, £12.99) by 24-year-old Zoe Sugg, aka Zoella, has shot to the top of the bestseller lists. It shifted 78,109 copies in its first week of publication, making it the fastest selling debut ever, outdoing J K Rowling, Dan Brown and E L James. 

It seems a cert to head the charts for Christmas.
