  • Great video!!!!

  • This is cool I wish someday to go there and find all these places like you did its my fav book atm

  • Thank you girls for answer these questions have been bombarding me since in between tenth grade and eleventh over summer vacation in '06 i was as obsessed about this book as you two are and still am, needless to say i finally bought the book and am reading it over take care.

  • Why! why would you highlight in that book! oh and on john and hanks youtube channel he has a video describing indian springs(:

  • What is the song called?

  • this is awesome! like really awesome!

  • I LOVE LOOKING FOR ALASKA! It made me laugh and cry and think. My favorite part was at the end, starting right after Takumi's letter.

    I really would like to go to the school it's based off of, despite it being about 1000000 degrees there.

  • Finally read this book and i love it.

  • You shoulda drank the wine from a dixie cup in a barn, oh wait, wasn't the barn torn down?

  • You and your sister are my heroes. 

  • great idea!!!

  • Interesting vid! It was odd how painful it was to see the book attacked with highlighter. :)

  • awesome

  • That's amazing! Book stalking haha :) I loved your signs 'Alaska Young was here'... that's so cool :)

  • Thanks! :)

  • You live in shelby county!

  • @fanpire14393 Shelby County where? Texas,Virginia,Utah,Michigan,K­ansas, New York, Montana? I'm giving out random states!!! LOL!!!!

  • What an awesome idea. Good way to use your nerdfighter smarts, girl!

  • the swan was really there?? XD and jackson, did you really highlight all that into your "looking for alaska" book?

  • That was awesome! Great job. :)

  • this is genious .. looking for alaska was one of the best books i have ever read (and i don't usually say that) .. im so glad i got to see the actual sites, they were exactly how i pictured it in my head

    john green would have been proud haha

  • I live there too! I pass by that sunny on the way to my high school. Oak mountain. =)...... BAD ASSS RIGHT?!?!?!

  • THAT's dedication!

    I want to go there. A lot.

  • that was amazing, john green would be proud

  • This is totally awesome! I wish I could do that. :D

  • Haha that was adorable!

  • This is such a great idea! If I lived anywhere near there, I would do it as well.

    They don't sell Strawberry Hill in Canada. At least I haven't seen it :(

    On Alaska Young Memorial Day my friend and I wanted some, but it wasn't to be found.

    Awesome vid :)

  • This looks like it was so much fun to make. Well done.

  • This is so great. I admire the stalking skills that went into this. [:

  • Terrific. I actually was also curious if that stuff was actually there.

  • Your first mistake was smelling the Strawberry Hill. Of course, I used to drink "the Hill" a lot when I was in college. Some gals in my dorm and I made up an OC drinking game and we had each finished a bottle of that rotten stuff before the end of an episode! Drink every time Ryan looks moody!

  • I kinda wish the swan had attacked you .... lol

    This is awesome!

  • that is really cool! :) it's beautiful there!

  • lmao "please edit that out of the video."

  • The fact that there was a swan on that lake is fantastic. Awesome video! So cool

  • We totally freaked out over that swan. It wasn't there the first time we went to the lake, but we went back and saw it.

  • Is that a beetle ya'll are driving around in? ;)

  • my friend and i found the school last sunday when we went to birmingham to see the moaning myrtles, the whomping willows, and jff and the library that's a few miles away. it was an incredibly made of awesome day to not only go to the concert, but to see the place where john green went to school.

  • Stalkers!  I love it.

  • "It's not as bad as I thought it would be. Nor is it good" is the best review of strawberry hill I've ever heard.

    Great video, and thanks for making it! Some of the places I imagined in the book don't exist anymore, but I think Coosa Liquors still does. I remember it being pretty rundown, but the people there were really nice.

    Thanks again! That was so awesome to watch. -John

  • Apparently my sister's roommate finished the Strawberry Hill the following day. I'm unsure how she accomplished this-- but I want to see if she (or anyone) can stomach Boone's Farm's "Orange Hurricane" flavored apple wine.

    I'm glad you liked the video! It was an adventure-- and we made it all the way to Columbiana on a "winding highway south of the school" before abandoning the quest for Coosa Liquors. At least we spotted the swan though? :)

  • @vlogbrothers my friend and I live in Alabama and we are planning on finding these places before we go to your book signing this month. :D We're so excited! You're our favorite author! Nerdfighters forever. :)

  • You know what would go really well with Strawberry Hill? Peeps. ~Trish

  • I am terrified at the prospect...

  • AMAZING BOOK!

  • So cute! Loved it!

  • Was that the tail end of Pete Townsend's "Let My Love Open the Door" during the last part of your video?

    After watching many of your videos, I've come to the conclusion that you listen to a lot of the same music that I do, which is awesome, because I don't know anyone that does!

  • It was! I love that song :)

  • Comment removed

  • That was the most awesomest and cutest video ever!! Kinda random but, What is the background music??

    Anyway, you and your sister are so cute and you just rocked nmy socks off =D

  • The song is called Pony (It's Ok) by Erin McCarley-- her entire CD is phenomenal!

  • Great video, Jackson! Nice job roping your sis into the mayhem...did you link this on JG's website?

  • Love the song!!!!

    WOOOH you used Pony its ok!

  • Great video! :)

  • Hahahaha!!! Love it! 5*!!! :]

  • Woohoo Strawberry Hill!

  • The background music was great, but I recommend "Now You're Gone" by Jeff Lynne. Listen to the words. Posting the link is causing my comment posting problems. The highlighter technique was great. Your signs and banter was funny, clever.

  • I had positive things to say too, but I'm having trouble getting the comment to post.

  • haha I love your videos they are always so entertaining! 

    (PS cant wait until my copy of As You Wish gets here!! And the release date of it is about 9 days after by birthday haha)

  • I read the book. That made this video mildly interesting. It sure looks like the video was fun for those two ladies to make.

  • Glad I could mildly interest you! And congrats on reading a book!

  • Redo it. Use a little higher resolution. Cut out the nervous giggling. Make it less choppy. Make the background music less variable in volume. I think that will really improve it.

  • If you have nothing kind to say, why post? Nobody likes a jerk. Even a mildly interested jerk.

  • Read lower. My "unkind" statements were not only constructive criticism, but I had positive things to say as well in other comments. Only some technical problem with posting the comments caused me to split up my comments. Look, my suggestions were actually substantive, like I suggested that Jeff Lynne song with perfect words for this video. I can't help that I broke up my comments for technical reasons and it made it appear as it did. It had trouble posting a YouTube video link, idk.

  • I did read your other comments and took them you being sarcastic. Guess that's the problem with not being able to express emotion through typed words.

  • Granted. I suppose we can be friends again now.

    By the way, I liked the book, and the author John Green is a really nice guy from what I can tell.

  • Love your videos, Jackson! Keep them coming and can't wait for As You Wish!
