So I have been talking to this guy I really like for about a month now, and I was at work one day and he surprises me, bearing my favorite Starbucks drink. I had lent him Looking For Alaska, because he said he never really enjoyed reading, and I told him this book would change that. So he told me he was done with it, and he took me home from work. We get in front of my house and he’s like “I want another book!” So I told him I’d run inside and get him Paper Towns. As I was getting out he grabs me and is like “wait! there’s this quote I wanted to show you on page… 123 I think. I like it a lot and I’m surprised you didn’t highlight it!” and so I turn to the page, and there is this post it note pointing to that sentence.
I was asked out via a John Green book.

Go to Rosianna’s blog now to see a beautiful (and mostly spoiler free) tribute to Alaska on what has come to be known as Alaska Young Day.
Hard to believe this is the eighth January 10th since Looking for Alaska was first published. I am so grateful to all who’ve read it and responded to it with such thoughtfulness and generosity.

That’s the thing about ham, it demands to be eaten.

My thoughts are hams I cannot fathom into sandwiches

I’m not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of eating ham.

‘It’s a metaphor, see: You put the ham right between your teeth, but you don’t give it the power to be delicious.’

“And in that moment, I swear we are ham.”
Wait. Wrong book.
