Paper Towns

1:15 a.m...just finished reading Paper Towns by John Green.

I got Paper Towns and An Abundance of Katherines (also by John Green) for Christmas. I decided to read Paper Towns first because John said he was going to make a video discussing the book and I didn't want to be spoiled. (I could have waited to watch the video whenever I finished Paper Towns, but that's not the same.) So that was my original motivation for reading Paper Towns immediately and as fast as I could--finish the book before John discusses it.

After reading a few chapters, though, I forgot about the forthcoming video and forgot about putting the book down. Paper Towns is an excellent, well-written story. I'll write a list of what I liked because I love making lists--but after I've thought about the book a little more.

By the way, I found out about John's books through the vlogbrothers (of which John is one half). Another way YouTube's been good to me in 2008.
