stolensheep asked: Enthralled by the epigraph for The Fault in Our Stars, I went on a hunt for An Imperial Affliction. A fruitless hunt, I might add. Any suggestions for where I could get it? Unless you're pulling an F. Scott Fitzgerald and An Imperial Affliction isn't real. But I kind of hope it is.

iamgreenbean:
I should have said hello or something, but I got all shy, and so just stared/smiled at him like a weirdo.
He had lots of ginger hair and a beard. And a TSWGO bracelet.
It is my opinion that the two of you should get married. HEY, GINGER BEARD! EMAIL THIS GIRL!

In Defense of The Fault in Our Stars
karenkavett:
With all the recent discussion over book covers lately, since John Green released the cover of his new book The Fault in our Stars as well announced as the contest for nerdfighters to design the new cover for An Abundance of Katherines, I thought I’d share my thoughts on the whole ordeal.

I am almost as dismayed by the negative responses to the cover as I was impressed by the amazingly wonderful designs submitted by many of you earlier this year.
