Beginning: Looking For Alaska

Everybody talks about how this book is soooo great. I have enjoyed many of other John Green's books, like The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns. So I wanted to try out Looking For Alaska. I enjoy his writing style and how all his books are filled with emotion and with a calm suspense. But before starting this book I wanted to know a little more about itand a little more about the author

I read a few reviews to figure out what I'm in for and if I'd be interested. All positive, some long, some short, but all never had one negative thing to say. (And you know me by now... I need a good book;) From what i get from the views, without giving it away to me and you, is a book written for teens. John green typically writes for teens so we can have a fueled frenzy over all of his books. I don't know what it is, but us teens (especially girls) have a whole obsession over these types of novels. And I can tell ya, Looking For Alaska has that written all over it. Which of course would attract people like me.

John Green is an American writer for young adult novels. Looking for Alaska won a 2006 Printz Award. He is also well known for his YouTube channel. Which I found interesting because who knew a write could be so talented in film too. It must be those creative genes that makes him so good at everything, Which adds more to why I want to read his book.
