  • I got the yellow from Amazon, which is lucky for me cause I liked the yellow one better :D

  • I never knew that Margo looked like that; I always imagined a Margo I once knew who I thought was similar to your Margo, John. :) It's probably because I didn't actually buy the book, that my girlfriend read it to me while I was sick. <3

  • I saw Yeti hair!!

  • my copy of paper towns has a push pin in a map....weird.

  • this was almost 4 years ago O.O

  • ha i sawthe Yetis hair!

  • I don't have either covers... I'm British.

  • Awesome. But poor yeti.

  • I want Tfios NOW

  • I think the blue one looks much better.

  • hahha Side bar

  • I say this means the Yeti's been captured on camera.

  • aww its 2011 and i still feel terrible that the yeti was sick aww poor yeti

  • Currently in art we are doing stuff about faces & emotions & crap. We had to make collages for different emotions. I haven't read it, but I knew Paper Towns had to contrasting covers, so I chose it. Later when I was carrying my art file around with two giant Margo's looking out the sides, I found a fellow NerdFighter! Tomorrow, I'm collecting Paper Towns from the library as I heard they got my order in. Thanks for helping me with my GCSE art, John. Best Wishes!

  • i've always wondered what it would be like to be the model that's on book covers...

  • well hello margo, youre looking very cute today.. hehe...creepy

  • john, i love the idea of sarah being 'the yeti' and i love the joke it provides. i also understand her want for privacy. i just really feel that she's isolated from the nerdfighter community. you talk about her, but we don't get to see you and her the way we see katherine and hank. katherine isn't a guest that occurs often, but we get to see the wonderful and deep relationship between her and hank when we do. and i feel like we miss out on your love for the yeti. she just seems...mythical.

  • i wish that i had watched this when i could have won one of those. but no. i'm late.

  • October 16th is my birthday<3 Yet another reason why Paper Towns is, in my mind, the best book ever.

  • Is there an advanced reader vesion of TFiOS?

  • I miss these glasses :(

  • I know this was over 2 years ago but.......poor Yeti. :(

  • This is seriously my favorite book that I have ever read. (grammar???)

  • April 14...my birthday. Forever associated with and referred to as "The day before tax day". I make myself feel better about it by saying "Oh yeah, tax day is the day after my birthday." *sigh* Oh well. Knowing that they posted a video on my birthday one year is enough to cheer me up even 3 years later :)

  • @CrystalIce414 Don't feel bad, my birthday is the day before the day before taxes.

  • I'm so glad that I have one of the advance reader copies =) I just need to track down John and FORCE HIM TO SIGN IT (threeish years later).

  • umm you guys know you can find the yeti on a "john and sarah green" google image search.

  • @Ravenclaw797 ~They all seem to have forgotten about "the Googley Lord".

  • The cover I have is a red tack on a map... :/ I would've picked the blue Margo (had I known it was available).

  • I still like the UK cover better.

    But that cover's cool too.

  • Sick yeti :(

  • good news: I am currently reading Paper Towns

  • The Yeti... The thing we will never see, so does she exist? The world may never know.

  • whats so sad is that we'll never get to see the yeti.

  • @pokemonmanic400 you can see the yeti! there's a photo thing she and john did for the indy star. there's a really long link and I feel bad for posting it like this but whatever:

    photos DOT indystar DOT com SLASH galleries SLASH 10840-home-and-garden-with-sar­ah-and-john-green

    ta-dah!

  • @hollium Thanks for the link. She's gorgeous, their son is awesome, but that picture does John no justice.

  • I'm sorry but whenever I see the white noise appear on your intro I close my eyes because I think a monster is going to come out. Then I remember it's just your intro.

  • I should give up hope of ever seeing the yeti, but I still hope. because nerdfighters and hank and john have taught me to never give up hope.

  • For a second there, I thought that maybe we'd actually get to see the Yeti. I really should've known better... Oh well.

  • i bought paper towns at borders today and it was SIGNED! holy snood, my life just got a ton better!

  • Poor yeti. Get well soon, yeti.... even though it's close to three years later and I'm sure that your doing very well at this point, get well soon!

  • thats my birth day!!!!! go awsome!!!!

  • really like the pin on the map cover better

  • I know this isn't the case, but wouldn't it be funny if the Yeti was an in-joke made up to cover up the fact that John never got married or something?

  • @PieSpirit That would make the footage of his child very difficult to explain.

    Actually, not very difficult to explain at all: Henry's a bastard.

    There. Explained.

    But he's not.

  • @ready2rock4u if you're asking whether john green is the person that wrote paper towns....then yes. yes he is :)

  • I have the new, new book cover with the map and thumb tact. Finished it in less than 24 hours.

    Amazing book <3

  • that was dangerous, if she turned around to look at you, the camera could have broken!

  • @ready2rock4u he did

  • So close. So close to actually seeing the Yeti. So close, but not quite...

  • Margo is so awesome

  • Please anyone know the name of the girl ( or model ) on the cover !?

  • Whoa! That's cool! 2 covers for the book! That actually really fits!

    AAH! I just checked out Paper Towns from the library (it had the depressed Margo on the cover) and I finished it last night. Right about when they arrive at the old mall, I almost couldn't put the book down but I had to because of school and homework. Yet I still finished it pretty quickly considering!

  • I have a different cover than both of those haha ..

  • in this video you look a little like phillyd and sound kinda like him too:)

  • i just bought paper towns yesterday and i'm already 200 pages deep. It's such a great book. I have the cover with the tack on it though.

  • Fishingboat profits?

  • I watched this video and then went and ordered all of johns books from amazon

  • @EmoGamerguy I watched this video, read your comment, and realized how incredibly broke I am.

  • @NotPanicking Sorry too hear that :(

  • Such. A. Good. Book. OMG. I read in in 3 and a half hours because I literally couldn't put it down. Good job, John.

  • is there any way I could get a copy of the typo version? that would be so awesome to have. I've read papertowns like nine times. :]

  • man its sold out in all the barns and noble and borders now i have to order it and wait a week

  • The house you are occupying is pretty.

  • poor yeti

  • I want Paper Towns SO BAD! Is it sold in Norway?

  • That's really cool -- I never got that before about the different covers. Makes sense when you think about it...

  • I live in sweden and i cant find Paper towns anywere :'(

  • @xXFluppzonXx you could get the audiobook on iTunes

  • mine wasnt either of those covers, i got a map with a red pin it. Man was i peeved

  • @foamyserver mine too. You probably ordered the paperback. :)

  • They have a different cover now, I'm sure you know :cP

    It's a ack stuck in a map of Florida.

    I kind of like it better, since I like to form the image of book characters in my mind!

    I'm really enjoying your book so far, John! The woman at the book store who sold me the book is also a big fan! We talked about vlogbrothers. I love having moments with strangers.

  • i was going to go buy paper towns today but my bookstore doesnt have it ):

  • I'm picking up Paper Towns the next time I'm at the library. I'm currently finishing An Abundance of Katherines.

  • Safari! That is pretty sad, actually. Poor Yeti. At least we have the spoilers that she gets better soon enough. :)

  • paper towns = awesome

  • i really want to read paper towns.

  • Go buy it! You will not regret it. :)

  • i wanna seee die yedi

  • I saw paper towns.

    In new zealand.

    Seriously the cover is soooo coooooool..

  • I want to see the yeti!!!!!!!!

  • I picked Yellow. but my fellow Nerdfighter friend is in posession of my copy of Paper Towns...she too is of the impression that you and your books are made of awesome. (she has yet to actually watch all the vlogbrother vids, but she has been over at the ning) and I can vouche for her nerdfighter-ness if needed...lol. she, for the record, is the ONLY person I entrust my books to. I know I will always get them back. and only a nerdfighter could truthfully guarantee such an important thing as that.

  • John.

    You are SO very good at promoting books.

    *sigh* I BOUGHT PAPERTOWNS LIKE TWO DAYS AFTER WATCHING YOU READ THE FIRST AND SECOND PARTS. There. I said it.

    GO NURDFIGHTERS!

  • youre so cute!

  • I want my name in that hat!!!

  • why always six, i thought we sent out the memo, someone was supposed to move to antartica

  • i really want to read that book

  • haha!! very funny

  • I cried when I heard the yeti was sick.

  • John...you're awesome. Like, wicked awesome.

    Poor yeti. :'(

  • a sleeping yeti!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i wonder how many times a sleeping yeti has be caught on camera (even though she was covered with blankets).....

  • HAT MY NAME! (although it's like a year and a half-ish later) GIMME DA BOOK.

  • thats the sadest bed lump i have ever seen

  • argh!

    every time i go to chapters, there are no cpoies of paper towns!!

    nerdfighters keep taking them all.

    oh, and im buying both versions of paper towns.

    cant wait! :D

  • im reading paper towns right now! im on chapter nine and its AMAZING =]

    I also have Katherines and Alaska lined up on my nightstand to read, and I can't wait <3

  • HOLY JONAS! HE'S OUTSIDE!

  • I am buying all your books John!! ;)

  • xD Yes, that was the saddest thing I've ever seen in my life.

    xD

  • I just finished Paper Towns, & I have to say its the best book I've ever read:) I also read your book, An Abundance Of Katherines, and it was my second favorite. Keep writing!

    wow

    haha

  • wow big house dude !

  • paper towns is awesome

    by the way did the yeti not kill you for putting that footage up ? :P

  • hmm... i'm older (22) and i have not yet read paper towns, but i would like to. i'm curios about the title though. is it explained in the book?

  • luvak8 - yes it is explained as the events unfold.

  • yeah it is ^^ it's actually a pretty strong part of the story, too

  • i just bought this book in australia today and it had a COMPLETELY different girl on the cover with longer dark hair and a front fringer so you could hardly see her face!

  • Hat.

  • hey, outside!

  • I was so excited to actually see the Yeti... but then i only saw her hair. I did this --> :(

  • you pointed the wrong way to the description box. LOL

  • Aww poor Yedi :( that IS one of the saddest things I've ever seen

    I have the happy Margo cover :D

  • you look like the actor from "Six Feet Under"

  • I want a double sided verision. I got happy margo.

  • So did I!! It WAS SO HARD DECIDING!!!

  • I wanted to get the yellow cover, but they only had the blue and I needed it ASAP! :3

  • I bought my book online and they sent me the happy Margo...and an extra dust jacket. I read the book while wearing the extra Margo on my head.

  • Pobre Yeti! T__T

  • H-A-A-A-T-Tttt

  • ooooo i looked 4 it at my library today they didnt have it i thought i was gonna cry :'(

  • what is paper towns about any way it seems cool

  • gosh, the yeti is tiny. i thought that was just a wrinkle in the bedspread.

  • I took a chance when I bought Paper Towns by buying one copy at Barnes and Noble after I had already ordered it online. I ended up with both covers!!!

  • i want one :(

  • I love how the end of each video is a question now.... Wednesday?!

  • Bought the book yesterday (Blue Cover) and finished it today.

    SPOILERS IN THE QUESTION!

    My question is concerning Q. At first he seemed like the type of character that would go to NY. The video game thing struck a chord with me. He keeps reminding himself of his motives for looking for Margo.

    Anyway, the crux of my question is that his decision at the end leaves me sad, not that they're not together, but will Q ever be able to be with someone without coming to the same conclusion?

  • School colors:) Blue and yellow, I just noticed that.

  • Awesome~!

    Yesterday, I finally got Paper Town!

    Went into Borders like a lost kid searching for his/her parents.

    Scanned through every single shelf but i can't find it.

    LAST resort? Yeah, went to the information counter. And the staff went into their "storeroom" and 10mins later, a Hard cover Sad Margo was presented to me! WOOTS.

    However, what can be better than 2 version of Margos on one book!

  • I'm so gonna read your book ! & I luv both of the covers ^ ^

  • i like the covers

  • John can only talk really fast when he raises his eyebrows.

  • Comment 279:

    Do all the copies have the other Margo on the back or is it just the advanced readers?

  • just the advanced readers copies.

  • i honestly love all of your books, but theres just something about paper towns.. I LOVE ITTTT!

  • u talk extremely fast. but I'm sure you already know that. AMAZING BOOK!!!!!

  • she had black hair!

    PWND

  • I have sad Margo!! :D lol

  • me too! She's too cool for school :P Literally!

  • i got the advanced readers copy FUCK YEAH so i had btoh

  • Josh

  • book i wunt a boooooookkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!

  • They only had Happy Margo (girl on cover) at my book store... Everyone else has sad Margo :[

    Oh well. Both books are made of 100% of awesome anyways... ^_^

  • Haha, I wanted the Happy Margo, my book store only had the sad one... I wanted happy Margo D:

  • i got the blue one, i think i got that cover because it seemed more exciting... idk. haha, i love the book.

    woot papertowns!

  • Too much ZeFrank?

  • DANG IT!!!

    i thought i'd finally get to see the yeti, even if she was sick. poor yeti.

  • I got the blue one *.* yeay

    papertowns is made of awesome - great book!!!! :}

  • im new. whos the yeti?

  • The Yeti is John's wife. She is made of awesome.

  • poor yeti

  • Paper Towns so far(I'm now on Ch.3) is amazing. Even by just reading the first 2 chapters, I am already hooked to this book, and cannot wait to finish it. Thank you John!

  • it will be the best book u ever read!!!

  • I finished the book this morning, my favorite book of all time

  • YETI!

    poor sick yeti :/

  • is the book aimed at a certain age and sex?

  • The book is more aimed towards Teenagers!

  • i jsut finished the book and I hav to say it was a wonderfull read

  • Frankly I'd probably get the happy Margo because well, if i got the sad Margo... the question "Gosh why is Margo so sad in that picture? did her fish die or something?" and that would just nag me to no end. but then again... why is she so happy in the happy cover?

  • so are the real one two sided?

    i just got a hard cover blue one from the library

    its not two sided

    are the non-advance reader copy paperback ones two sided?

    i was just wondering.

  • The actual book is not two sided like the ARC.

  • thats rather unfortunate.

    are you sure the paperback isnt two sided....?

    prolly not.

    which shall i chose?!

    most likely happy margo. its happier.

  • It is rather unfortunate.

    Hmm...I would probably pick happy Margo as well. I haven't actually bought my copy yet, but I just might order it online and be surprised.

  • surprise is good.

    but i really like happy margo, and theyre both misapprehensions, so i might as well pick the good one right?

  • I like the sunnier side of things, so it would seem fitting if you feel that way.

    But who judges books by their covers anyway? aha.

  • i do =)

    all the time.

    its really sad, but i once read a book because it had a duck on the cover. and i wouldnt read twilight for the longest time cause i thought the cover was depressing.

  • Understandable. Well then, by all means, get the book with the happy Margo. haha.

  • the lady at the book store did haha

    when i bought my sad margo she said

    "Oh, this looks like a sinister book"

  • That's hilarious.

    My book was in packaging so the cashier at Borders didn't get the chance to judge my book. haha.

  • BUMP. DO we get several names in the hat if we post several times?

  • this book was amazing, i miss these videos, you guys make my day a whole lot brighter

  • tell the yeti to get well for me

  • hahaha yeti

  • why do you keep saying hank?

  • Hank is his brother.

  • Wow you are officially my favorite author now! way to be cool and interact with everyone :)

  • Hey! Love the video
