#0091A Paper Towns - John Green

Ah, John Green. We meet again. I don't think I fully appreciated his writing when I read Will Grayson, Will Grayson. I can honestly say that I play on rereading everything he's written. Not only am I a HUGE fan of John Green as an author, I'm also a Nerdfighter and a follower of the Vlogbrothers on Youtube. (It consists of John and his brother, Hank) Seriously, look it up.

Now, as for Paper Towns, 5 starts all the way. Maybe I'm biased. Nah, I'm pretty in people's faces about books and music. And this is a book....so. I can see how some people might not like how certain events unfold, but why have something always turn out the way you think? Really, who is to say you might think how I did when you read it. Okay, I'm starting to confuse myself. If you like Young Adult fiction, obviously I do, then you will most likely enjoy this one. If I recommend one of John's books, this isn't the one I would have people start with. In my opinion it's not his absolute best, but if I give this book 5 stars (and I don't give anything higher than a 5) and it's not his best... just think how I feel about his other books ie: Looking For Alaska, and the most recent The Fault in Our Stars. Just be warned that when reading his books you will laugh a lot and cry some. The great thing about John's books and Paper Towns is that anyone can read it. Doesn't matter what gender/age you are! And the best way to end this post that I can think of is DFTBA.
