This is a blog describing my thoughts, feelings, and experiences while reading any books that I find. I started this blog the summer before my junior year of high school in order to complete a summer reading assignment for my AP Language/Composition class. As of the September of my senior year, I am opening the blog to any books I read.

An Abundance of Katherines, Post 1: Overall Reading Experience
So, I finished this book in less than two days, which I think says a lot for the readability of the book, and my opinion of it. I loved it - and I love its author. John Green, I've noticed, has always created relatable characters and great stories. It's just such a strange and fantastically hilarious concept that someone might fall in love with girls who have the same name nineteen times. And the fact that he began and ended with the same girl, Katherine I being Katherine XIX, created the concept of the dating situation coming full circle. That having been said, I do think that the romantic aspect of the book was pretty predictable: as soon as Lindsey said that her boyfriend was named Colin, it became obvious that they would end up together, but maybe that was the point. Other than that, I thought it was a completely different book than anything else I'd ever read.
