It seems like it was the worst thing I could do to it. I didn't like it and was really disappointed at the end. Gladly, I have read TFIOS later on and I saw that John is a great writer :) I'm so happy you enjoyed this one. Great review, Sandra :)Tanja - Tanychyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15084789780467257259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5947048690523464613.post-7111733394557851332014-04-23T18:32:44.100+02:002014-04-23T18:32:44.100+02:00This was my first JG book and I love it so much &l...This was my first JG book and I love it so much <3<br />Don't worry about the Katherines, btw, it's a much lighter read and not as depressing as his other books.Miss Bookiversehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05459663861137013056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5947048690523464613.post-5377031979683859902014-04-22T19:38:17.006+02:002014-04-22T19:38:17.006+02:00I adore John Green books but this remains the only...I adore John Green books but this remains the only thing he's written that I haven't read. I don't even know why - just haven't gotten around to it I guess. Which is weird because THIS is the book, next to TFiOS, that he is most known for / most quoted.<br /><br />I need to get on it asap!Allie @ Little Birdie Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05368572335905353234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5947048690523464613.post-53966550452389744832014-04-22T11:02:47.761+02:002014-04-22T11:02:47.761+02:00I actually loved this one more than TFios!!

It's safer that way!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5947048690523464613.post-11960961753260538212014-04-22T01:27:58.234+02:002014-04-22T01:27:58.234+02:00I was really hit by this book too and it really sp...I was really hit by this book too and it really spurred a lot of talk on Alaska's actions within my book club.

I wanted to call John Green and tell him off or something, but in the end I think it all works out for the best. Otherwise the message wouldn't get through. I loved how deep John Green's book can get, especially this one with all the big questions about what happens next and what's the best possible way to live your life or achieve the Great Perhaps, or simply, escape the Labrynth. Just A-MAZING!Valeria @ A Touch of Book Madnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12356663154561146557noreply@blogger.com
