Sendo isto um livro com personagens no 11° ano num colégio interno que são amantes de partidas e de espírito livre, já não sinti que tinha a idade certa para os adorar. 
Esta é uma leitura essencial para os adolescentes porque os temas que aborda são interessantes e causa reflexão sobre a mortalidade que eles não sentem alcançá-los.
Eu gostei mais da parte do "depois", já tinha identificado os sinais e deitei umas lágrimas, mas não foi um pranto como fiz com outros livros. O "antes" foi um pouco enfadonho para mim, mas a escrita do John Green é fluída e isso é um grande ponto positivo.
Adorei como o autor também começou a estória no dia 136 antes e terminou no 136 depois, é o tipo de planeamento caricato que gosto por parte dos escritores.

Well the book was pretty goodish and the ending did make sense to me but I'd have preferred more closure but I think that was the whole point of the book (the unknown, the great perhaps).

This book was okay, the plot reminds me of Paper Towns but with more angst and Alaska is a reflection of Peyton from OTH. The book is well written (duh it’s John Green) and can be enjoyable but the teen angst is nearly unbearable, combined with the vulgarity of these teenagers words and actions.
