    I read the book and I watched the series and IT IS A GIFT. All of the character's voices came across loud and clear. Denny was so good in this I almost forgot that the colonel wasn't black. I remember watching Kristine thinking wow, how can anyone not fall in love with her, not romantic love, but spiritual love. She is the Alaska of my memories of the book.

    I haven't read the book but I watched the show and I love how they didn't just end it with her death and Dr. Hyde explains how everything that comes together must fall apart. It's like they took this heart-breaking thing that felt impossible to get over, and reminded us that it's the natural way of life. Life goes and nothing lasts forever, so live in each moment.

      I hadnt heard of the book, randomly picked the series, watched it; then ordered the book. The are both amazing, book and series, but definitely different. I highly recommend reading the book, it's John Green's sole creation as you know. I think i read it too close to watching the series though cause i kept seeing the series as i read instead of being present with the book and my imagination, but no regrets, but yeah, if you liked the series, felt the story, definitley read the book. :)

    The barn scene was also one of my favourite moments. The episode it happens in is one of the most exquisite pieces of television I've ever seen. And I'm a Firefly fan so you all should understand what it means for me to give that compliment :P. Y'all probably won't see these comments, but thank you for bringing John's book to life like you did. John, thank you for your incredible story. To the showrunners and rest of the crew: thank you.
    This was a fantastic interview. I loved the "selfish" questions from everyone (including you, John! ;D). These were like the questions you hear from fans at a convention, rather than journalists, and it was perfect. There's a time and a place for professional interviewers, but this was much better handled by people who are so close to the material. Great call, ET.

    I love the no answer part of the story but I think a big part of it is letting the readers create their own answer, I’m not sure if that was what John was going for while writing it but for a lot of people it’s like “choose your own adventure” you get to finish the story in your own words while never having it answered by the author so you never know exactly what happened (even if there was no exact explanation) but you have ideas you get to live and tinker with and I think that’s insanely special.

    I might be stating the already known, here by in his "The Fault in our Stars," the book Hazel loves and goes to meet the author doesn't have an ending where you're left completely satisfied to knowing what happened. She seeks out the author to find out and he doesn't have answers she thinks he should have. John was putting the experience of fans wanting to know what happened to Alaska (which he never knew himself) into words.

    I would like to know who the other actors were that actually auditioned . Especially for PUDGE & ALASKA. I think I have watched their truth or dare make out scene a hundred times. So glad they shot it face to face. The soundtrack was perfect for that moment. Those are things you can not get from the book. Still loved how it was written. Who else could be Alaska Young but KRISTINE FROSETH? They chose wisely.

    I stopped watching the series before you-know-what-happens because I just want her to live perpetually in my head-canon. Kristine is an amazing Alaska but everyone is cast so well. I can’t believe the show is as good as it is. Maybe I should go back... or maybe I shouldn’t...
