Generation Next by Oli White & Terry Ronald

When Jack moves school after being badly beaten up by bullies, he finds himself making friends with a group with his same shared interest in media as well as catching the eye of Ella, whom he first sits next to in class. The group he meets soon invites him to Austin, the group's leader's house to hang out in their technology den where they come up with their GenNext idea from watching gigs online as well as using social media.

As the website takes off being talked about all over the internet, the group face a huge live meeting abroad about the future of GenNext as Hunter's uncle dodgy company want to buy GenNext and threatens releasing a sex tape between Hunter and Ella if they refuse.

Throughout the book, friendship is tested and bullies play a huge role in the story. There's also the fact that Jack's mum faces cancer and he still goes ahead with the meeting abroad which personally I don't think I could do. It was a good book but I would've liked there to have been more about GenNext and what they were posting etc.
