Many times I have been tapped to read this since high school and now I did. Watched the series first before finishing this one. Another sad, sad book to note.
In his debut penning of young adult adventure on half-lives, John Green chronicles the story of four friends (Miles, Colonel, Takumi, and Alaska) on matters of school, memorable teachers, messy love, and it's hardly called friendship with whatever instant connection they have. The novel tales utmost loyalty and sacrifices just to understand what one's heart desires to understand. Their bond is envious. Truly.
There are themes that I think are part reasonable for the work to be banned, but all of them only serve as bona fide proofs that the author also tackled the surmounting challenges on youth mental health, alcoholism, and the familiar teenage efforts of securing belongingness and traversing youth wanderings.
Readers, at the end of the book, will wonder for at a day if their friends and family will also be capable of such mourning just to understand the meanings of sudden loss of life. I mean, I did. Perhaps even too much.
