Hey girls!

So on the weekend I was lucky enough to be invited to go to Justin Bieber's Believe tour! Totes cool right?!

Honestly I thought that Bieber Fever had subsided as sooo many people had caught One Direction Infection but I was soooo wrong! The Fever is in full swing and I may have caught it!



I have to say I LOVED the fireworks and other pyrotechnics that were used in Justin's performance! It really made the concert into a HUGE party!

I also met a really cute TG reader and Justin Bieber fan at the concert. Her name is Danielle. Here's her review of the show!

Hey TGs!

Happy Monday! Last week it was such miserable weather in Sydney that all I wanted to do was watch some DVDs in bed or read with a warm cup of hot chocolate. I ended up having a bit of a movie marathon week and I watched the following movies. Let me know if you've seen them.

The Lion King
Monsters Inc.
She's The Man
What A Girl Wants
Tangled

I also had loads of time to read and I ended up finishing Spooky House! Who would have seen that ending coming?! Not me that's for sure! What a great way to start off this brand new Billie B series. I think I'm going to like these new books, I love solving mysteries!

What did you girls think? Let me know and you could see your comments featured on my next blog! Also keep an eye out on the poll to help pick which book we should read next! It will be up later this week!



 By the way, guess what I did yesterday?!

I adopted a teeny tiny kitten! She is a super cute Tabby and is 10 weeks old! Her name is Mirabai but I call her Mira for short. I adopted her from the Cat Protection Society in Enmore (Sydney) it is such a great organisation that takes in kitties that can't be looked after anymore and rehomes them all. I've never had a cat before so I'm super excited to learn all about them! If you have any tips for this new kitten owner please comment below! I need all the help I can get hehe!

Hugs,
Alex

Hi TGs!

Happy hump-day! I don't know about you guys but when I was your age I was totally obsessed with making up secret clubs with my besties just like Billie. And in this book Billie and her friends have started a Secret Mystery Club, how fun does that sound. It's up to them to solve the mystery of the haunted house at the end of the street. Honestly, if it were up to me to solve that mystery I don't think I'd be able to brave the task! I'm a total scaredy cat!


Lets keep reading to see if there really is a witch that lives in the spooky house! I'll be reading up to chapter five, so see you all on the flip side!

Hey TGs

Sorry I've been MIA! But I'm ready and raring to get the new book club started. We've chosen A Billie B Mystery Spooky House as the second book to read and I kind of cheated and read ahead to chapter three! I've always been a fan of the Billie B series and this new mystery series is just as addictive. Although, I've heard that this series will only contain six books, I'm already hooked. For those of you needing a teeny bit more encouragement to join our book club. Here's a bit about the book without giving too much away.



The series will be about Billie B and her friends Jack, Mika and Alex (Woohoo! I love it when a character shares my name), all of them are a little older now and they decide to start up a Secret Mystery Club and scour the neighbourhood looking for mysteries to uncover, beginning with the haunted house at the end of their street.

Sounds pretty spooky right?! Don't worry it's not too scary, it's more exciting to find out what the mystery is!

Anyways stay tuned and read up to chapter three by next week and we'll read on from there!

Keep on readin'
Alex

Hey TGs!

Happy Monday, hope you all had a great weekend! I went to my friend Lisa's wedding! It was a beautiful day and I had sooo much fun.


 It was a pretty busy weekend and I've got the goss on what your fave celeb got up to!

One Direction are still touring Australia and are currently on the west coast. Any west coast TGs reading this? Yep that's right, Harry was given a cork hat at one of the concerts and he looks so funny wearing it!



Taylor Swift is also on tour with Ed Sheeran, we can't wait for her to come to Australia!


Ariana Grande spent some quality time with her mum. How cute is the pic?!


Peyton List looks like she had a girls night in with some of her besties


What did you get up to on the weekend? I'd love to find out!

Hi everyone! 

Sorry I've been a bit behind on my reading but I finally finished Olivia's Fantastic Gymnastics and LOVED it! It was such a good ending don't you think? Will anyone be reading the next book in the series? I know I'm tempted to!

Thanks for your comments, I love reading them so make sure you keep sending them! I also love all your suggestions for the next book in our book club, so I have narrowed it down to two books, and I will need you guys to help decide which one we will read. Let me know which you'd like us to read by commenting below.

Billy B Brown – A Spooky House

I thought this one might be a good option because you know what's coming up at the end of the month? Yep it's Halloween! What better time to read a spooky book than now in the lead up to the spookiest time of the year? We also have the first chapter free to download right here!

Animal Magic – Dogmagic

This book is about Lottie who lives at her uncle's magical pet shop. She and her dog Sofie learn magic from a witch but they must keep this a secret even from her bestie. The best part about this book?! It's about animals! 

Anyways, make sure you let me know which book you want to read this month!

Happy Friday TGs!

This week has been crazy busy! As you all know, last week the 1D concerts started and I was lucky enough to see the boys not once but twice! I'm so glad I went because One Direction sure know how to wow their crowd. It was seriously one of the most fun experiences ever!

But don't just take my word for it, I met two lovely TG readers and interviewed them about the concert! Check it out below!

Has anyone spotted 1D out and about? I'd love to hear about it. Can't believe 1D are now off to NZ!

Bye for now!

Hey there bookworms!

How are you enjoying Olivia's Fantastic Gymnastics so far? I am loving it! It's really easy reading and you can get through the pages pretty quickly. We're up to chapter six so I think we should finish the book this week and start on a new one. Any suggestions on what our second book can be?

Anyways back to Olivia's sitch! I cannot believe what happened at the comp! Who could have seen that one coming right?! I feel bad for Olivia though, it would be really sad not to be able to perform when you'd been working so hard for so long on something. Oh well, I guess accidents happen, good thing she's okay though. What do you think will happen next?

Remember we're finishing the book this week, so don't forget to put your suggestions for book two in our book club below.

Happy Monday Total Girls!

I hope you all had a fab weekend and are enjoying yourselves these school holidays. I wish I were on holidays! Although, if I were I probably wouldn’t have been able to go to Slimefest and interview some of the coolest celebs for Total Girl.

Did any of you guys go and watch it? OMTG it was one slimey world in there! I don't want to give too much away because the show will air on Nickelodeon at 5pm today! (Don't worry if you missed it, it will be repeated) All I can say is it was sooo awesome! The show kicked off with the totally cool Justice Crew, who danced up a storm, this also got Luke and Wyatt dancing and let me tell you, those boys can dance… well sort of!

My fave part was watching Big Time Rush! Woop! They are awesome! I even got to meet them backstage! They are cray-cray! But totally in a good way!

Did any of you guys get to watch Slimefest live? Can't wait to hear about your slimey experiences!

Hey girls,

Hope you've had a wonderful weekend, you guys are sooo lucky that you're on school holidays right now! What I wouldn't do to get to sleep in and chill out at home for two weeks! Some kids get to go away on a holiday during school holidays but not everyone does which is why the newest issue of Total Girl is jam-packed with some really awesome activities and stories. My fave has to be the Celeb-ify Your Room story on page 26, because what better time to give your room a makeover than the school holidays?!

Anyways since last week I've been reading Olivia's Fantastic Gymnastics for our new book club and I'm loving it! I really like Olivia's bestie Maddie, she seems really sweet, don't you think guys? What do you guys think of Sasha? She seems nice for now doesn't she? I think that Olivia might just be a bit scared of the new competition, but I think that kind of person is the best motivator to do even better. Do you think they'll become friends? I guess we'll see! 

Lets read up to chapter six this time! I'd love to hear what you think so far so don't forget to comment below!
