My opinion on John Green and TFIOS

  After reading The Fault in our Stars I began to have a slight obsession with John Green and his work. I began reading that book mainly because it was very popular and i had heard great things about it. And although i may be considered "basic" for reading it, i did not read it because everyone else is. Its popular because its written so well and kept the reader engaged. Many believe its a typical love story and you could easily predict what would happen. yes, the plot line was slightly predictable but personally i didn't fall in love with the book because of the plot line. I fell in love because of how real it made the situation seem. John Green took a typical love story and advanced it with characters that were not considered normal. How many times have you met a teenager who puts a cigarette in his mouth but never actually smokes it? And not only did he make the character be different he made the character have a great reason for doing it. I feel like people over look this book now because of how popular it got. People think its just about teenagers falling in love just like very other book. But that is NOT the case in my opinion. If it was a normal typical not interesting book, it wouldn't be so popular. It seems when things are so well known and popular it starts to get a different image . So please if you haven't read it ( go read it now) don't judge it until you have. If you are not in John Greens writing, I highly suggest watching is History YouTube videos hes also an AMAZING history teacher too!! In conclusion what you should have picked up from this blog post was read The Fault In Our Stars, and that John Green is pretty much amazing at everything in life.
