Earlier this summer Alex brought me all of John Green’s books and I read all of them within a week. Other then her persistent suggestions, one line from Looking For Alaska is what inspired me to read them. Even though this quote is about thinking you are inadequate and unable to live up to the expectations of others it makes me happy. (Not in a sadistic way I promise). Whenever I read it I get inspired to find someone who feels this way about me.
This book was amazing and I know there have been talks of making it into a film but I don’t think any movie could capture this moment perfectly. No girl will fill the shoes of Alaska Young, but I won't mind watching them try.
Ps. There is an entire tumblr dedicated to this quote. That’s how good it is.
