I couldn't even wait a whole day to read this book. I bought it yesterday, and then I think I ate it for lunch. Actually, yes, now that I think of it, that's the truth. I'm only realizing now that I am rather hungry, and it is entirely John Green's fault that I read my way through lunch and didn't even care.
It's everything that I wish I could write. In these past few minutes after I finished the book, I can only describe my feelings as breathless. It's the best feeling in the world, and it's always how I want to feel when I've finished a book.
And, it's given me a clever phrase to think when I can't figure out what to say, "My thoughts are stars I can't fathom into constellations."
This is exactly why I want to be a writer, and if I can't be a writer, then I'm going to be an editor. More books like this one need to exist. My advice is, if you haven't read this book yet, stop whatever you're doing (eating, sleeping, nothing) because you won't care about whatever is was that you were doing until you finally read all the way through to that final page.
And now, I must to go because I really am starving.
