  • Wait, the song in the background... it's "The List"... it was on the Tour de Nerdfighteria 2012 CD... I'd never heard it before... I LOVE THIS SONG!!! :D

  • Amazing book!!! I have a different cover but it's still made of awsome.

    DFTBA x

  • ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS I'VE READ

  • So... I am watching this in December of 2011 and thinking back to this day, 3 years ago. On this day in 2008, I turned fifteen. It is incredibly mindblowing to think that on the day that Hank recorded a song about Paper Towns, I turned fifteen, and had recently became friends with the most important persone in my life: my best friend who I am happily in nerdfighter-like with. :)

  • Sooo... is this something we can still do?

  • Paper Towns is fantastically wonderful times three.

  • awesome book!!!!!!!!!!

  • lol he said myspace 

  • my birthday is comming in like 3 weeks and im asking for all 3 of Johns books! im soo exited!

  • @hotshot3434 He has four books

  • I did all the steps. Is that still going on? I hope so!

  • Paper towns was the first John Green book I read, and I absolutely loved it. I wrote the notes, I took the picture. Can I still get the album?

  • I'm sorry you think that woman is hot...

  • Is it offer still valid?

  • Paper Towns was amazing! Please can I have a copy of the collab album?

  • Regardless of if this offer still stands, I am still going to follow these steps.

    Because:

    1. Paper Towns is STILL an awesome book regardless of the fact that I'm over two years late on the arrival of the bandwagon.

    2. Writing a note to a potential buyer is a really cool idea.

    3. These are just three things I didn't know I wanted to do.

  • Dudddddde I never saw this video, but I did everything. I want the CD.

  • I LOVE PAPER TOWNS. I'm about to graduate and it was just tooooo meaningful to me.

    <3333 I LOVE YOU GUYS!

    can I still get the songs?

  • Paper towns is great. :3 I loooveloveloved it. <3

  • how do you get a CD? even not for free. i don't mind paying for it!

  • Oh my gosh, for about the past three weeks I've been going, "PaperTownsPaperTownsPaperTown­sPaperTownsPaperTownsPaperTown­sPaperTownsPaperTowns." Then, last night, at 10, I got the book. Finished it before noon today, and can't stop thinking about it! Gosh, I loved Paper Towns. Unfortunately, my camera died... So pictures when my camera is better!

  • I have done all of these things with the new paper back. Can I still get a CD?

  • the books aweshum!

    but can we late readers still do this challenge and get the cd?

  • Hehe there's people still asking if they can do all the things and get the music...

    can i still do all the things and get the music? O.o

  • Is it too late to do this? I really, really want a copy!

  • I hope it's not too late to do this! I made a youtube account just to finish the third part. XD I loved Paper Towns; it was great!

  • Is there an alterneatave to no.2,because I live in the UK and Paper Towns hasn't come out in UK-ish bookstores.

    DFTBA.

  • Buy it off of Amazon. :D

    That's what I did, it was around £7-8 I think, and only cost the ususal just under £3 shipping. (It usually gets posted from USA)

    DFTBA! :)

  • I LOVE PAPERTOWNS! IT WAS AN AMAZING BOOK!!! and today i totally reccomended it to my substitute teacher who was a looking for alaska fan. so there. is it too late to do this though?? because I would really like one.

  • Is it too late to still do this?

  • Hank... I was wondering.... if I were to do the project, now, would I still be able to get/download the cd?

  • lololol it's the blogtv bikini girl. Good times.

  • i'm definitely almost a year late, but i'd still love the CD, is it still an option?  btw, paper towns is the best non-fantasy book i've read in....possibly forever

  • Can I have a CD?

  • ahh how did i miss this when it came out?!?! this video, not the book, i pre ordered that.

  • is this album still available? or are the songs at least still available? i will do all those things if i could get ahold of the songs cuz i do love paper towns!!!

  • Comment 348:

    I'm excited.... even though it was months ago :)

  • can we still get a cd? :/

    cause this video is old...but i adored paper towns.

  • First off, Paper Towns is the most awesome work of fiction I have read this entire year! So good!

    I'm a newer Nerdfighter, and I just got to this video. I went back to the beginning so I could be totally up to speed, and I'm wondering, can I still accomplish this task?

    I actually put notes in all three of John's books before I got to this point, so I have completed that part already! Now for the profile pic...

  • best book ive ever read

  • Best teen novel I've read in my short (but well read) 16 years of life!

    Definately tops James Patterson's MR series (before book 4 screwed everything up; we're talking original Erasers and such...PT was better)

    I'm a major JP fan. In case you don't like those books, I thought I should point out that this IS a compliment.

  • I LOVED PAPER TOWNS!!!!!!!!! it was AMAZING!!

  • I couldn't really hear the song. What a shame.

  • I finished! I really hope this is still open, cause I reeeeaaallllly want that album. Paper Towns was an awesome book, and I've already got a few people interested ... mostly because I have this little problem with shutting up about it.

  • Is it too late to get the collab album?

  • Sooo, yeah. John/Hank, what's up with the collab album? Was that some limited-time offer or what?

  • WHOOOOOT paper towns is the best book ive read in 2009

  • I was FINALLY able to do the video!!!! E-mail coming! I can't WAIT for my Paper Towns collaborative album!!! XDDD

  • Aww, see, that's unfair, whe nyou live in a country where Paper Towns isn't sold :P

  • This is one of the best ideas EVER!

    and paper towns is awesome.

    sorry i finished ooooo sooooo late, hopefully i can still do this!

  • Can I still do this? I sure hope so because I am going to anyway!

  • Ooh look at me commenting and hoping I won't be told I'm too late : )

  • Did the album ever come out?

    I emailed sparksflyup that I finished all 3 tasks but haven't heard anything about this ...

  • woohoo!

  • my friends and i went to walden books 2day and we were really afraid we wouldn't be able to find any of john's books! (you see, the store is closing down, and most of the books are gone) but we found three copies of Looking for Alaska. we put notes in two out of three because people were starting to look at us. we were suprised no one kicked us out since we were really close to the register. it was so fun!

  • Part 3...Complete!

    MDL

  • yeah me too, i want the cd....i love paper towns.

  • hey if it is too late im just got to do the profile pic thing

  • argh. is it too late to do this? cuz i really want to but this video was two months ago...

  • I'm so glad I'm not the only one having finished the challenge so late. Anyways, Congratulations on everyone who did!

  • Aaaah I really wanna do this, but I gotta wait for the books to come to NZ in FEBRUARY!

    Booo!

    I has me a copy though, and I loves it.

    :)

  • :D I completed the challenge!

  • I'm gonna be, like, walking around bookstores,

    discreetly stuffing notes into every copy of paper towns x3

  • lol anyone notice that he was watching FOX for the debate? I have selective vision i guess. ;)

  • What a year, eh? =]

  • does anyone know how to access the paper towns album? I've sent an e-mail and haven't heard yet. I don't want to be all pesty and e-mail again...apparently I'm really impatiant! :)

  • I like commenting to get things!

  • Omigod, wow. I finally finished this. XD Success!

  • ack! I forgot to take pics of placing notes! darn, foiled by not having a good camera

  • how would british nerdfighters do the second part? its not in any bookstores! (bookstores coming between me and awesome)

  • I've finally finished the project! w00t!

  • Yay finally completed the challenge :)

  • I'm working on the steps. Need to read Paper Towns before I write any blurbs though. The picture is all over the interwebs.

  • I quite like Paper Towns!

  • Completed! there's a picture, but it's a new youtube account.

  • I have completed all the tasks! Yay it only took me an entire month.

    Anyway I love Paper Towns! It was absolutly amazing! It was my favorite book of John Greens.

  • YES! I finally completed all the tasks! :D

  • Holy crap, I forgot to comment.

    Paper Towns is my favorite book of 2008. No jokes, this book is so jokes.

  • So, two steps are taken. But how on earth am I going to put a note in a book, which is not sold anywhere in Germany (stupid bookshops)? Anyway, I lend it to everyone I know to make up for that last missing step and hope I will still get the music! Aw, how I love all of that!

  • All done! It took me to long, but I was distracted by school... and reading Paper Towns. It was such a fantastically made of awesome book.

  • Hummmm . . . this is my first of the three steps. Now, off to do the others! I want this album sooo bad.

  • PAPERTOWNS. I just reread it, and it is just as amazing the second time. It's kinda freaking amazing. <33

  • Awesome book!

    MDL

  • I want this CD so badly!

  • I loved it. Not as much as Alaska or Katherines, but still in my top 5 books of all time list.

  • Oh hai! It took me far too long to complete the project. But I did! :] And it was a ton of fun!

  • Paper Towns has caused me to have a crush on a fictional character...

    but the book is AMAZINGLY FANTASTICALLY WONDERFUL

  • yay! i've completed tasks one and two! i just must prove it now... and this was task three...

  • i wANT THE ALBUM!! omg i loved paper towns!!

  • I would have to say that Paper Towns is John's best book so far! It's the best book ever so far, actually!

  • so i was wondering how long it takes to get the email info about the collab album.... i hope its no to long... cause i want it

  • Excitement,

    I LOVE PAPER TOWNS.

  • God, i love nerdfighters!

    And food, actually.

  • Paper Towns is an awesome book, already read it three times!

  • I Love Paper Towns!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE PAPER TOWNS!!!

  • Does anyone have advice for international nerdfighters (like me) who would love to complete the tasks, but who are unfortunate enough to live in a country where Paper Towns is not on sale? (I had to preorder my own copy from Amazon) Putting notes into imaginary books is difficult. I tried.

  • I would put rate it on amazon... I think they will understand :)

  • I have completed the three tasks!

    Paper Towns is awesome and I can't wait to hear the album.

    And Paper Towns is AWESOME! I'm was VERY excited when it came out and now I am VERY VERY excited to meet you guys next week! DFTBA!

  • Paper Towns is great. I am probably the only person in Ireland who has read it and if not probably one of the first.

    Unfortunately I cant do item 2 unless John gets a UK publisher. Hopefully I can still get the cd though.

    I cant understand how I missed this video when it was uploaded.

  • Paper Towns is so amazing! I like didn't do my English essay because I was reading it... okay I just didn't do it, but still! I'm lending it to all my friends, and rereading, and taking a photo of me and paper towns later. Can't do the 2nd one though - its not published here yet :( But yeah, yay PT!

    papertowns was aaammaaaaazing! was so sad at the end. its so hard to say goodbye to characters you love. but the great thing is you can always read it again. :)

    (And I shall indeed put many a note within the book.)

    After doing all these, I will email you!!

  • I LOVE PAPER TOWNS! It's the best book I've read... in a very long time. I have a short (ish) list of favorite books: Count of Monte Cristo, 1984, Harry Potter, The Fountainhead, Midnighters, and now PAPER TOWNS! Definitely the BEST book by John Green so far... his books have continually gotten better each one, so I'm REALLY excited to see what's next! And for the MOVIE!

  • AAHH!!! I can't wait to get it!

    I am, sadly, in the middle of reading another series *sniff* and deal is, I can't get a new book until I'm done with the ones I'm reading...

    So I'll be getting it in 2 more books!!! *thumbs up*

  • AHHHH PAPER TOWNS!! :D

  • PAPER TOWNS PAPER TOWNS! I have trouble finding words that describe the sheer awesomeness of this book.

    It took me a while, but I'm finally done proving my dedication! Now I shall send an e-mail.

  • I have put my picture w/ me and Papertowns on my Facebook account (having problems with the pic on youtube though), I have placed nerdfighter notes into the all the John Green books at the bookstore, and I am extremely excited about Paper Towns that I've been neglecting all my homework this weekend just to read it!

  • Paper Towns just arrived in the post today.

  • I saw you today at the Seattle signing! It made my life. Thanks for being alive Hank and John!

  • I would've put notes in Paper Towns...IF ANY WERE ON DISPLAY. Grr. But I'm taking that picture. :)

  • oh em gee! gahh paper towns was like amazinggg. i got it the day it came out and read it all that day. so i went back to the store after this vid and left little notes everywhere throughout the book. now i just gotta take that pic!! =)

  • The Barnes & Noble near my house was sold out. D:

    I ordered it from Amazon and I should get it within the next couple of days. I can't wait!

  • Papertowns is amazing. I've started reading it, and it's made if awesome. Of course.

  • yay my library got it...and i was sick that day...and paper towns healed me!

    Oh, and I also loved Paper Towns. :)

  • I am reading it now! So far its amazing i can barely put it down.

  • I finished the book a few days ago, loved it, and took pictures with it, but I just haven't quite gotten around to leaving notes in the books at a bookstore. I will soon, hopefully!

  • Sigh. I love paper towns

  • finally my paper towns is here..and i took a pic with my favorite wall :)

  • COMMENTING.

  • I love Paper Towns! So I stayed up all night finishing it. So worth it! I completed the challenge. Hoo Ha!!

  • Paper Towns effing fantastic! Buy it. Read it. Love it. John Green is one of my favorite authors. He will never dumb down his ideas or story line. If you are reading this, I know you think it is just for me to get an album. (which I did complete the challenge!) However, the fact that there is a challenge in no way effects how I feel about this book or John Green as an author.

  • Paper Towns was pretty freaking jokes. I went to the Orlando book signing before I finished it, and stayed up until 3 in the morning to do so. It was awesome! So if for some reason you're watching this (and reading this comment) and haven't read it yet, you know, READ IT!!! :D

  • Yes! My roommate and I completed the challenge! I will post the video as a video response as soon as it finishes processing!

  • i still don't have it.

    saaaaaad faaaaace

    =C

  • paper towns is freakin awesome! im so glad i bought it :)

  • wow, I just finished the book and took some photos of it :D Can't wait to get that CD you guys made :D
