John Green didn't fail with this story. I may not have liked Alaska but John can write a damn good story. I feel that the character development was good. Pudge seemed to have matured and blossomed as a person unlike the shy lonesome character he was before. Alaska was the same throughout the book. I couldn't understand why Pudge was so obsessed with Alaska but I believe that was because personally I didn't like her. The Colonel didn't change either he was just as witty as he was at the beginning when I first met him.
The plot of this story was really good. I didn't let Alaska get in the way of me enjoying this story. I would like to thank John Green for writing this.
*Spoilers*
John Green is known for his emotion, tear-jerking stories. However, when Alaska died honestly I didn't care. Pudge and everyone was so heart-broken over it and I honestly didn't care. At one point after she died I couldn't decide whether to continue not caring or actually miss her even though I didn't like her. Sometimes in the book I didn't understand Pudge's intentions. For example he was 'oh so in love' with Alaska but had a girlfriend who after like 2 days of dating he let put her mouth all over his dick. If you're 'oh so in love' with Alaska don't let another girl put your wiener in her mouth.
In Conclusion:
I really enjoyed this and half-way through reading it I decided right then that I wanted/needed more John Green in my life.
