This book also made me extremely angry. Hank Green manages to capture pure humanity and the basic human flaws in such a magnificently realistic way. He manages to name things that have always bothered me and the reactions of the characters to this crazy situation is absolutely realistic. I don't doubt for a second that if this would have been reality it could have been exactly like this.
Also our protagonist is extremely flawed. Still we root for her because she is our way into the story. She is the one that tells us about it but still she is pretty crappy sometimes and even aware if that.
I love this book so much. And since the last few books I've read were all spectacular in their own way I fear those words may sound hollow - but they are nevertheless true. This was captivating, interesting, realistic and so so humbling.
And also the cliffhanger in the end makes me scream!! I am so glad the sequel is out already because otherwise I may have hated this book purely because of this.
