Wow. That's all I can say. John Green has definitely composed a great book. The characters were well developed and the story itself was wonderful.

Sobbed my eyes out when I read this at school. Added another character I kin to my list. holy moley man what a debut book. Big trigger warning though. Stay safe, and know that you are loved and that you are enough.

I loved the experience of this read, the friendship dynamics and the uncertainty reveals a unique element of adolescence in which we consider others to be somehow less complex than ourselves.
