I was scrolling through "My Books" here on Goodreads when I bumped into this book. And I remembered how I declared it to be the only readable John Green book. You should feel special, Q. 
 It's probably the only JG novel that has a nice plot. Of course, he could have as well titled his books Looking for Margo or Paper Alaska because it would've been the same thing. Anyway, the plot was catchy this time. It was a fun, easy read, that I mostly enjoyed. The characters were separate individuals who had very different personalities and I liked them, to be honest. 
 Now let's get to my favourite part, criticising the book 
 Once again, Mr. Green annoyed me with his obsession of being "deep". The guy needs to chill. Seriously, we're not going anywhere like that. 
 But maybe there are a thousand ways to look at it: maybe the strings break, or maybe our ships sink, or maybe we're grass--our roots so interdependent that no one is dead as long as someone is still alive. We don't suffer from a shortage of metaphors, is what I mean. But you have to be careful what metaphor you choose, because it matters. 
 Wow. That was so inspiring and beautiful and heartfelt and...screw that! You're writing a goddamn book, you're not inventing the flying toaster! John Green, once again destroying books with his need to show off his writing skills. He did that in every single freaking book he wrote, I swear to god. You know, beautiful writing comes from honesty, from simplicity, just like J D Salinger wrote The Catcher in the Rye. That's what I'd call beautiful. 
 I also had a deja vu while reading this. The girl is misunderstood, mysterious, good-looking and everybody just loves her. She disappears one day and everyone freaks out because, duh, they all love her. She's a special snowflake, not like the other girls except she's exactly like every single girl John Green ever wrote about. Did I mention she has a crush on the dorky nerd guy and he's so confused because oh my god, why would she like me of all people? Well, it's because she's John Green's protagonist. She does crazy stuff and likes crazy people, get over it, nerd dude. 
 Okay, that's enough for one night. Overall, I liked the book. It had an awesome male protagonist (Quentin), it was quite funny, and I'd recommend it to all the YA folks out there,
