This YA book was really fun and quick to read. The beginning was a bit slow though, it took some time for the story to settle in and that's why it took me 5 days to read it even though it is a 300-page book. The characters were really likable (John Green's characters are quite similar actually, it i...

“You see how fake it all is. It’s not even hard enough to be made out of plastic. It’s a paper town. I mean look at it, Q: look at all those cul-de-sacs, those streets that turn in on themselves, all the houses that were built to fall apart. All those paper people living in their paper houses, burni...

Loved the book. I loved how Q made it his mission to find Margo. I honestly can't wait for the movie :)

Third book I read of this author, this time it was because my mom bought me this book as a present when she went on vacations, otherwise I'm sure that I would have read it but not anytime soon. I will repeat what I always say of his books, while the ideas of his books are original, they still look...

I feel like I got roped in by actually liking The Fault in Our Stars when I thought I would not and this is what I got roped into: this book. I am currently quite annoyed and spoilers are going to abound here, so heads up. I hate Margo. Not like "Oh, she isn't a whole lot of fun and I wish the m...

What an adventure! I am pretty sure normal high school seniors don't have badass mysteries to unravel and road trips like this, but it whimisical and funny and utterly engaging! I hope the movie does it justice.

This is the third John Green book I've read to date (the others being The Fault in Our Stars and An Abundance of Katherines) and it is by far the best. Green can't seem to resist his manic pixies and overly-philosophical teens, but in this book those elements came together in a far more enjoyable wa...

Paper Towns was my first experience reading John Green, and I’m a bit ambivalent about having a go at another one of his books. Not that I didn’t enjoy it – I managed to finish it without throwing the book down. The story started a little slow with the main character, Quentin, getting a visit throug...

Como siempre, John Green supera inmensamente mis expectativas. Un libro lleno de humor y de tragedia al mismo tiempo, que te deja pensando y reflexionando, con personajes tan normales que uno se puede identificar con cualquiera de ellos fácilmente. Disfrute muchísimo esta lectura, me reí, casi llore...
