Sorry to reply so late I just hate to leave people hanging) OMG THEY ARE MAKING A MOVIE!??????!! WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME :O Okay, breath. Wow. I am floored. All I can say is that it better be good. If it doesn't make me cry, It's not good. I'm a tough critique. YAY. Oh, and you know that book that Hazel and Augustus read, but it dosn't have an end? Well, me and my friend are planning on writing the end of it. yaya Keep rockin Mckay <3
P.S. It's not wrong to still cry over Augustus. The night I finished TFIOS, I sobbed for like 30 minutes; something I've never done for any book or movie. The nest day, even now, I couldn't get over it. I'm still thinking of whether to write John Green a letter to ask why he pullled a Peter Van Houten in the end. R.I.P Augustus Waters. Some infinities are just bigger than others.
THANKS!! ^u^ I too finished Looking for Alaska two weeks ago. I thought it was good but not as good as TFIOS. I think it's John Green's masterpiece. Can't wait for the movie. I hope they pick out a good actor for Augustus; he's so perfect. I don't think I've ever liked a character so much like him. Shelaine Woodsley will do fine as Hazel. And I'm so glad you're proceeding to make your story into a novel. (Signed copy here; OK?) And I'm sure if you do your best it will be as good as TFIOS; but you need to give it your all. OK? I'm so happy you read this. Please recommend it to any TFIOS fan or Nerdfighter you might know, if you can. Keep rocking and writing, Liv. And I would gladly work with you on the film adaption or theatrical adaption of your novel if the oppotunity should present itself in the future. It'd be a blast!

OMG I LOVE THIS!!! I know that in your forum you mentoned this, sorry i didn't see this until now, but this isn't cheesy at all....its Freaking PERFECT!!! i love how you capitolized Somewhere. Is it wrong that i still cry about Augustus (R.I.P)? TFIO'S is the perfectest book ever. And yeah, about the novel that (thnaks to you) I am writing: didnt even realize that Lancaster was the ame last name. Well, it obviously won't be as good as TFIO's but i will try my hardest. Also, i am going to credit you because: yes i am taking your ever brilliant advice. YAY for you. Also just finnished Looking For Alaska, wasn't as good. Didnt like it so much when I was reading it liked it after. Haiku is great Mckay. Keep rocking oh and P.S.: A Tragic Story (novel) might be long. I will mail you a free copy ;) and you can totally direct it whne it wins a tony. Also, i am doing casting. Okay, keep rockin

I loved this so very much! It almost made me cry! I loved TFIOS and this is perfect!
OH MY GOD!!! I read this book and it was the best book i have ever read in my entire life!! You, my friend, have a good taste in books.
Okay. Now about the poem. I like how you capitalized Somewhere. its not a specific word, but everybodys somewhere is specific to them. I'm not talking heaven and afterlife. But when you die, where do you go? It's obviously a burnng question in most people's minds. And your last line sort of asks a question as to where do you go?
I really liked this. Well done!

For everyone else, take it for what it's worth.
