I just read this book in one sitting, I've never done that before that's how much it gripped me. A fast paced lighthearted story about interesting loveable characters peppered with drama is one of my favourite things.

I'm not usually one for biographies but I was hooked with this. She's such an amazing writer. I won't be able to see anything about iCarly without thinking about how much she hated the whole thing.
