Book Review: Looking For Alaska by John Green

[kipkayify]

Looking for Alaska was the first book that ever made me cry (besides Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows). This book blew me away, I'm recommending it to everyone XD

[Dmfriend26]

@kipkayify I totally agree! It's amazing!

[tosluver]

Awesome I might check that out.  Awesome review. Hey I was thinking about making a youtube channel just for books, do you think I should do it? I think I might.

[Dmfriend26]

@tosluver Yes. Yes. Yes x a billion! I'd subscribe in a heartbeat! The book community is so much more accepting than the otaku community. (Don't tell anyone I said that though.) xD

[tosluver]

@Dmfriend26

ok I think i will make one. (your secret is safe with me lolz)

[thereadables]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it Dylan!! I LOVED this book, one of my favourite contemporary/stand alone reads. I think I could re-read this a billion times :)

[Dmfriend26]

@thereadables Me too! I want to read it every year now! XD

[draluvsbooks]

Ok. now I'm getting it from the library, thanks to your review. I never had a book that made me cry before.

I can't believe Borders is closing. It makes me so sad!;(

[Dmfriend26]

@draluvsbooks I hope you like Looking for Alaska! :D

:( Makes me sad too!

[Mrsbooklover]

Yeah i think i might do that:)

[Dmfriend26]

@BlitzBookReview Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!

[agactinggirl]

Sounds pretty awesome XD

[Dmfriend26]

@agactinggirl It is! XD

[MaxieMagyx]

FAVOURITE JOHN GREEN BOOK EVAAARR!! x'D Seriously. I doubt he'll ever top Alaska. No way. Just.. no way.

Dyllie, you have great taste in literature.

Like you didn't know that 8'D

[Dmfriend26]

@MaxieMagyx x'D I KNOW RIGHT? Although, MAYBE The Fault in Our Stars will top it? idk, it sounds great! x'D

[bumblesby]

Hahahaha. I am going to go back over your past videos and pick out the ones where the book review is your new favorite book of all time. You did say Faulkner didn't you? I thought I heard a little different pronunciation. I will have to LFA on my FIRL.

[Dmfriend26]

@bumblesby I used Faulkner as a random example of a famous person, I don't remember if he was mentioned or not. Yeah, I have a lot of favorite books. haha

[bumblesby]

@Dmfriend26 The Faulkner reference was my very feeble attempt at trying to be funny. Some things just fall flat ya know. :)

[Dmfriend26]

@bumblesby OH! Wow, I must be really tired, I get it now! xD

[jazzer53]

WOW, sounds really awesome. I heard so many reviews but if it can make a grown man "weep", I need to get my hands on this. =) Thanks for the review!

[Dmfriend26]

@jazzer53 I'm a very emotional man though. xD And I like crying.

[Mrsbooklover]

Great review Dylan, although i didn't like Paper Towns at all i might give this one a try.....

[Dmfriend26]

@Mrsbooklover Thanks Claudia! It's A LOT better than Paper Towns. :) But since you didn't really like the writing style...maybe you could check it out of a library? xD

[Dmfriend26]

@MegaBookNut Yeah, it said that at the end of the book. John mentioned 9/11. He's a genious! I love him so much! xD

[OnceUponAReadersBlog]

I've always wanted to read this book, but I've never gotten around to it. Now, I know that I need to pick up the pace and actually buy it. Thanks for the review!

[Dmfriend26]

@OnceUponAReadersBlog I really hope you like it once you read it! :)

[sadomirth]

OKAY okay I am going to purchase this book Gawsh Dylan way to make me anxious to read it. Stocks up on some tissues. I am reading some really shitty books at the moment but I am trying to get through them. All the stores in the city where closed.

[Dmfriend26]

@sadomirth I hope you like this book! It's so good! Tissues would be a good idea too! xD

[YaBookReviewer]

Awesome review! I really want to read a John Green book but haven't gotten around to it. They sound really good! Are you pre-ordering THE FAULT IN OUR STARS? He signs all pre-ordered copies!!! ~James

[Dmfriend26]

@YaBookReviewer Please start with this book! It's amazing! I haven't yet, but I'm going to pre-order it sometime! :)
