First pages and I coud not go further. Charactera that are minors are talking about their perveser fantasies. The MC is a sad male virgin that can not take his eyes of certain parts of a girl he just met, who is blantly boasting with the fact, that a guy (she was not single) groped her boob. And the, are romanzicising smoking.

I do like John Green, and I really believe that the book has an (maybe) important messge and needs to build itself up for that. But it was just too much for me. ALL WITHIN THE FIRST FEW PAGES.

I am disguted!

I put off reading this book for so long and I wish I hadn't. For some reason, I thought it was about something completely different. It was a really good read and I finished it in just a few days (which is fast for me). I really enjoyed and related to Alaska and the other characters.
