Ode to John Green
O John Green, you are a marvelous man, so funny and clever and entertaining. Paper Towns was brilliant and a fantastic read. Your videos make me snort tea out of my nose. And John Green, if I didn't love you so much, I might hate you.
Because you, along with the nefarious darkiknowwell, have conspired to rob me of a good night's rest. I began Paper Towns with the best of intentions, John Green. I was going to read a chapter or two before retiring for the night. Three hours later, there were only 60 pages left in the book.
Why, John Green, why?
And then, John Green, you committed one of the cardinal sins of fiction-writing.
You switched tenses.
With no warning.
With two chapters left.
I should hate you for that. But I can't. Because you, John Green, are still brilliant, and still clever. And Paper Towns was still amazing.
So, in conclusions, John Green, I leave you with the acronym of the NerdFighters (of which you are a founder and I a member).
DFTBA!
