I was so tempted to actually curse, tumblr! So tempted that I just split an infinitive talking about how tempted I was.

Anyway, the New York Times Book Review has reviewed The Fault in Our Stars, saying that it is a blend of melancholy, sweet, philosophical, and funny,” and that “[Green] shows us true love… and it is far more romantic than any sunset on the beach.”

First of all, when I started reading The Fault in Our Stars earlier this evening, I assumed that I would be reading it slowly over a week’s worth of bedtimes. I didn’t realize that TFiOS would be a book that demands to be read. And so here I am at 2:40 in the morning, having finished the book and with no tears left to shed and no hope of sleeping anytime soon because every book read is its own little piece of infinity, and you can’t just knock out post-infinity. So I’m just gonna curl up in bed and feel these feelings out. This was John’s best, I think, and he wrote sentences in this book that made my chest constrict and started a throbbing in my heart that jumped to my shoulders and traveled down my arms and trailed through my fingers until all I could feel was that ache. My goodness.

Everything will be beautiful. Nothing will hurt. - John Green

I just called Children’s Book World to ask about John’s TFiOS tour. I had to try several times because the line was busy. Then the guy Anthony was like yup I’ve been getting a lot of calls about this. <3 nerdfighters.
