John Green Limited Edition Boxed Set (autographed) (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
John Green is a powerhouse writer and one of the best in YA. He manages to create realistic stories with both humour and heart. The characters are authentic and the humour comes naturally. My favourite book of his is The Fault in Our Stars. It is a near perfect book and will remain iconic in YA for generations to come. My second favourite is An Abundance of Katherines. It has a weird blurb but it is a hilarious story. I found myself laughing aloud dozens of times while reading this novel. Paper Towns is my third favourite story. It is very funny and a mystery. Looking for Alaska, while my least favourite of his works is still very good. The reason Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns are my least favourites is because I find the main female characters (Alaska and Margo) annoying. Although this is arguably the point of both novels (to break down the illusion of the manic pixie dream girl) it decreased my enjoyment of the novel. Having said that they are both 4 star books and definitely worth reading. A John Green novel is a must read and guaranteed to be excellent. First review, this might be bad x)All of John Green's books are great, in my opinion. I've always found him to be one of the more constant authors out there, and one of my favorites. But I've also seen constant patterns in his books. Examples: a broken-down car and a "psychopathic" type of driver. An extremely hot, sexy girl (or boy, in the case of TFiOS). Sometimes it gets a bit tiring to read the same type of book over and over again, but with John Green, even though his books have many similarities, each of them is also unique in each of their different ways. It is these factors that make me enjoy his books more than authors who have recurring themes in their books. And that concludes my slight failure of a review, as I am off to do homework!
