Hello girls~

I've recently become a huge fan of John Green. He's an author and Youtube vlogger (alongside his brother Hank). One of my best friends introduced him to me and forced me to read one of his books, Will Grayson Will Grayson.

I s**t you not, that book is amazing. Extremely vulgar, but heartfelt and sweet.

Anyway, have any of you ever heard of John Green? If so, what do you think of his books and/or vlogs? biggrin

Good golly miss molly!
THANK YOU for knowing about John Green!
and if you thought Will Grayson, Will Grayson was good, just you WAIT till you read Paper Towns or Looking For Alaska
Those books changed my life, and while that may sound dramatic, it's true.
I love john green, as a vlogger, and even MORE as an author. He's my favorite. : )

I just recently finished Looking for Alaska, and I read Paper Towns before that. John still haven't let me down. I'm waiting for my friend to finish An Abundance of Katherines so I can read it. ((:

So glad you've read them! : )
I didn't like an abundance of katherines as much, BUT there's another book that not many people know about. It's called Let It Snow and John Green a few other authors wrote short stories and combined it into this one book and it's pretty great! and holiday themed, so it'll get you in the christmas spirit! lol

I've yet to read his books, but I LOVE John, and Hank, too!

They are proof that there are good men in this world.

I've been a longtime fan of John and Hank Green and I love John's books. My favorite book by him is his first, Looking For Alaska and I also liked Paper Towns.

I am a fan of the vlogbrothers, and John's books. I have read The Fault in Our Stars [TFiOS], and I cried.

Augustus Waters, Hazzzzzel Grace, WHYYYYY? Peter Van Houten, you make me a giant squid of anger!


I plan on reading Paper Towns, and An Abundance of Katherines as well.

Will Grayson Will Grayson and An Abundance Of Katherines are my all time favorites. My least favorite would have to be The Fault In Our Stars, but maybe because it's more sentimental.

So far I've read Looking For Alaska, Paper Towns, and The Fault in Our Stars. I plan on reading more at some point though.
As for my favorite, I would have to say it was The Fault in Our Stars. While I don't have cancer, I have a neurological disorder that causes extreme amounts of pain. So yeah, I found the characters and their situations very easy to relate to. Plus I don't think a book has ever made me cry so much.

John Green is amazing. I've been a fan for years, even have first print of the Fault in Our Stars <3 signature and all. My favorite is probably Abundance of Katherines, just for the amazing humor. I recently read Let it Snow and it was soooooooo good. I love it.

John is a brilliant author. crazy to think that if he hadn't meet that one lady at work (Whose name is something like iIIean but I can't spell it) that he might never have started writing!! One person can make such a difference.

I've also only read The Fault in Our Stars recently, and it is simply amazing. It's one of my favorite books too.

I have yet to read his other books though, yet I'm looking forward to doing so!
