the John Green project.

Saturday, October 15, 2011

I recently re-read a little book called Looking for Alaska, written by none other than John Green.
I fell in love with the story and its characters once again, and discovered so many new awesome things about it. This re-read made me realize that I actually haven't read much from the said author, despite the fact that I adore him and his brother, a.k.a thevlogbrothers.




So I decided that I would read all of his books.
  • Looking for Alaska - check
  • An Abundance of Katherines - will read next!
  • Paper Towns - on hold
  • Will Grayson, Will Grayson - own it
  • The Fault in Our Stars - coming soon; February 2012. Pre-order it and he will sign it!
Have you read any of these? Did you like them? I personally think his writing style stands out and his characters always seem to really shine through. So I am very excited to start discovering the rest of his work. Join me if you'd like!

  4. Yay, I love John Green. I read and adored Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns awhile ago. Just this month I read will Grayson and have preordered The Fault. I'm saving Katherines. I got to see him speak last year and he was just as fantastic and funny in person as he is on his blog. You just can't go wrong with him.

  6. I've read Paper Towns and Looking for Alaska. I absolutely loved both, but I like Paper Towns the most. I really need to read his others books, though. Just a couple more to add to my to-read list.

  7. I've had Paper Towns, the really cute paperback, on my shelf for awhile. I watch a lot of vlogbrothers videos, so I think I'm gonna have to read at least one of his books. I'll probably end up loving them.

  10. Will Grayson, Will Grayson is FANTASTIC! I haven't gotten Green's other books yet (or David Levithan's) but they're not both very much on my YA radar. Loved it.
