Hello to all fellow Nerdfighters :-)

So, I recently finished reading Paper Towns written by the wonderful John Green. The story of Margo Roth Spiegelman and her many adventures and thoughts on paper towns was truly one that I will never forget. I especially liked the character of Quentin because I found him easy to relate to. Like him, I am a very anxious person and to witness his development of courage throughout the novel was very…

This is my 1st Blog post I just wanted to share a story



So i went into a book shop... a bit high street bookshop we have in england.... I was looking for paper town but couldnt find it anywhere



So i go up to the till and ask the woman at the desk... Could you tell me where Paper towns by John green is. 

So she takes me to the other side of the shop. 

On the way there she starts asking if i've read any other of his books and I told her that i have read all of them…

Out of all of John Green’s books, for some unknown reason Paper Towns was the one I wanted to read the most. Unfortunately I couldn’t find it at any library near by. Then my made-of-awesome brother (TheGinge) gave it to me for Christmas! It surpassed whatever expectations I had for it (not sure what those were) and it is definitely my favourite John Green book so far. I was walking around the house singing “This is such a good book, oh my lordy this is such a good boooooooook”. I…

I would like to start off by saying that this book was no where near as enthralling as Looking for Alaska. The book started off rather quickly and then started to pander off. I would have to say that the best part isn't even the ending. The best part of the book, in my own opinion, was the first half of Part Three. That's a moment where you get to see a lot of personality in the characters. Up until that point every character in the book just seemed flat and unrealistic. They seemed as if…

Guys.

Guys.

I just found the first proper book that I ever read.

Seriously.

It has an unused sticker inside it. Seriously.

Kid me, thank you for that present.

I'm planning on reading it now.

P.S. I read the rest of Paper Towns today and it is in the running for one of my all-time favourite books. Holy crap though. Why haven't I read this before?

Tonight I am going to start John Green's "Paper Towns." I want you to read along. Or should I say, I want you to read along, and then I want you to share your thoughts. I plan on adding some thoughts on the book by Wednesday, January 19.

After "Paper Towns," I am open to suggestions for the next book. Maybe we can read a classic or a work of horror or science fiction--who knows? (I have been dying to read and discuss Melville's "Moby Dick.")

But since I've been on a…

Evidently not.

So yesterday, I finished reading Paper Towns, by of course John Green. I thought I better read it, as it is like Nerdfighter duty, and i love reading, so I gave it a go...and i LOVED it!! Wow, it was such a good book, really funny, and i love margo and quentin's characters, they were just fantastic. I also loved Ben, he was a such a character, and his very, um.. 'wise' words on life were really funny, awkward, weird inspiring! The ending just topped it all off too, after…
