Cried a small.
Green has a supernatural (or maybe natural) to make the most beautiful, life-exploring stories out of tragedy.
Top 10 mental illness narratives (I haven't read thr Bell Jar yet)
Might be my favorite fiction from him, but Alaska is really close.

i have found that sad books really affect my mood so i want to rate it lower because i didn’t actually enjoy the experience that much, but it having a big emotional effect on me makes me want to rank it higher. i think i’m going to be thinking about this book for a while. i feel like most of the john green books i’ve read have ocd in them, does he have ocd??? maybe i live under a rock. it was a good progression i think
