Original review:Colin makes a bit more sense to me by the end of the book. I think the last few chapters pulled it up from a 2-star to a 3-star read for me. Editted 4-27-13: I have been thinking about this book rather often since reading it, which is a sign of a good book if you ask me. Better th...
Out of John Green's more popular books from Looking for Alaska to Paper Towns, I figured An Abundance of Katherines was as ideal a starting point as any, less because it is among Green's least-reviewed works than because its blurb hit enough right notes for me to need no further convincing. A child ...
This review and more on Sab The Book EaterThe first John Green book I read was The Fault in Our Stars, and I loved it. You can see now that I had high hopes for Katherines. Sadly, my expectations were not met. I think part of the problem is my lack of knowledge when it comes to John Green books. I ...
It wasn't as funny as I have expected it to be. Though it seems that the book centers about breakups and all those Katherine Dumpers, for me the life realizitions made a greater impact. It wasn't as good as The Fault in Our Stars and the characters did not really stood out a lot (even though Colin i...
This was a really good YA book - I think it'd be great for nerdy or outcast kids since the protagonist doesn't feel he really fits in with anyone.

3.5 actually.I enjoyed this story. I found it thoughtful and poetic. My only problem was that I really only connected with the character of Lindsey. I will admit they made a cute couple towards the end. ;)I'd recommend this book for all Green fans.Devlin
In which Our Hero takes a road trip and almost learns that Girls Are People, Too! The set-up and stylistic points are charming, but I seriously would have preferred to read an entire book about Our Hero's slacker, Muslim, wannabe ladies' man sidekick. Our Hero is supposed to be annoying, but I often...
I was kind of saddened by how much I was not overly excited about this book. I typically love John Green books. I struggled with connecting with these characters in general. Even tho if was explained, the use of the words "fugger" and "fug" was really annoying. I found Colin to be way too self ...
This was an ok telling of a road trip with two teen boys.: Colin and Hassan. Colin is a super smarty pants who loves anagrams and girls named Katherine. 19 of his previous girlfriends all shared that name. Hassan is his best friend/sidekick. Thank goodness for Hasan because he livens up the dialogu...
