By The Bel: Youtubers on our book shelves
Anyone else noticed that some of our favourite YouTubers are coming out with books lately? Here’s just a few to get you started.
Grace Helbig of the YouTube channel It’s Grace is a ‘tell it like it is’ comedian and her book Grace’s Guide: The Art of Pretending will be out later this year. She also co-hosted the Streamy awards this year with our second entry.
Hannah Hart of MyHarto with her book My Drunk Kitchen: A Guide to Eating, Drinking, and Going with Your Gut. My Drunk Kitchen is already available overseas. ***Under age or irresponsible drinking is not condoned by any of the Escape Club team.
Zoe Sugg of the channel Zoella has her book Girl Online coming soon.
Her OTL Alfie Deyes of Pointless Blog has a fun activity book, The Pointless Book, out now. I love that the by-line says ‘Started by Alfie Deyes finished by you’. His signings have been just a little insane. He gets more hits on his videos than the BBC gets on some of its most highly-rated programs.
ItsWayPastMyBedTime aka Carrie Fletcher (yep, the little sister of Tom Fletcher, the guy who did the best wedding speech ever). Not only does she spend her working life as Eponine from Les Miserables, but she’s also coming out with a real page turner next year called All I Know Now.
And for our picture book lovers, that Tom Fletcher guy mentioned above has a picture book series called The Dinosaur That Pooped . I dunno about you, but I think there’ll be a few little boys happy to be reading something like that.
If I’ve missed any that you know of, put them in the comments. Oh, and remember to link both their book and their channel.
