Julie S. I've read Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and Paper Towns.

You're right that most of his books follow the same set-up with a nerdy guy who wants this off-limits girl. It's almost like a formula for him, but he usually pulls it off well. I just can't read the books too close together.

Karis Jacobstein (yalitwit) | 419 comments I adore John Green! I am such a fangirl! He understands humanity like few other YA authors. If you've never listened to his books on audio, you should. They translate so well. Will Grayson, Will Grayson on audio is amazing because Tiny sings all the songs from his show. I've recently been going back and listening to my favorites that I've read. I just finished the audio of Paper Towns, which I read a couple of years ago and loved. It was very good in audio format. The Fault in Our Stars was amazing as well. I've read the following books that John Green has written or contributed to:

The Fault in Our Stars- 5+++ stars
Looking for Alaska- 5 stars
Will Grayson, Will Grayson- 4 1/2 stars
Let it Snow- his contribution 4 stars
Paper Towns- 5 stars
