"we never really talked much or even looked at each other, but it didn't matter because we were looking at the same sky together, which is maybe even more intimate than eye contact anyway. It's quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see..." - Turtles All the Way Down by John Green

★★★★★ my favourite book of all time. there. I've said it. I'm sad that I finished it so quickly because now it's over and I can't read it for the first time again. It took less than 30 hours so it might be one of the quickest times that I've read a book. I've never related to a character so much, as someone with OCD I felt like maybe just maybe someone else understands what the inside of my head is like... anyway, I liked this book very much x

"That's the thing about pain... it demands to be felt..." - The Fault In Our Stars by John Green (2012)

★★★★★ aaaaa tfios T_T another one that makes me think of school. I remember reading it when it was new which was in 2012 which doesn't seem that long ago until you realise that it's actually been *eleven years* (!!) I remember reading it and crying and then a bunch of us counting down the weeks and the days and the moments until the movie came out and then we watched it and cried all over again... I like little memories like these... x

"if people were rain, I was a drizzle and she was a hurricane..." - Looking For Alaska by John Green (2005)

★★★★☆ wowee this book ~sends me back~ to younger, simpler times when I first read this. and it was just as good as ever. what a good time, ily John Green x

"Margo always loved mysteries. And in everything that came afterward, I could never stop thinking that maybe she loved mysteries so much that she became one..." - Paper Towns by John Green (2008)

★★★☆☆ Paper Towns makes me think of high school - which is nice and not nice at the same time. it was nice to re-read this and take a little step back in time x
