“John Green is one of the best writers alive.”—E. Lockhart, National Book Award Finalist and Printz Honor–winning author of The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks and We Were Liars
Praise for Looking for Alaska:
Winner of the 2006 Michael L. Printz Award
Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist, 2005
“What sings and soars in this gorgeously told tale is Green’s mastery of language and the sweet, rough edges of Pudge’s voice. Girls will cry and boys will find love, lust, loss and longing in Alaska’s vanilla-and-cigarette’s scent.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Alive with sweet, self-deprecating humor.…like Phineas in John Knowles’s A Separate Peace, Green draws Alaska so lovingly, in self-loathing darkness as energetic light.”—School Library Journal, starred review
“Miles is an articulate spokesperson for the legions of teens searching for life meaning.”—BCCB, starred review

2007 Michael L. Printz Honor book
Los Angeles Times Book Prize Finalist
“Fully fun, challengingly complex and entirely entertaining.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“Laugh-out-loud funny . . . a coming-of-age American road trip that is at once a satire of and tribute to its many celebrated predecessors.”—Horn Book, starred review
“Green follows his Printz-winning Looking for Alaska (2005) with another sharp, intelligent story. . . . The laugh-out-loud humor ranges from delightfully sophomoric to subtly intellectual.”—Booklist, starred review
Praise for Paper Towns:
2009 Edgar Award for Best Young Adult Mystery
“Clever and wonderfully witty, but also deeply thoughtful and insightful.”—Booklist, starred review
“Green’s prose is astounding—from hilarious, hyper-intellectual trash talk and shtick, to complex philosophizing, to devastating observation and truths. He nails it—exactly how a thing feels, looks, affects—page after page.”— School Library Journal, starred review
“A suspenseful mystery, a compelling central metaphor, and one of those road trips that every senior hopes he or she will have round out this exploration of the kind of relationship that can’t help but teach us a little bit about ourselves.”— BCCB
