“Late in the winter of my seventeenth year, my mother decided I was depressed, presumably because I rarely left the house, spent quite a lot of time in bed, read the same book over a over, ate infrequently, and devoted quite a bit of my abundant free time to thinking about death.”
John Green's first novel, Looking for Alaska, won the 2006 Michael L. Printz Award presented by the American Library Association. His second novel, An Abundance of Katherines, was a 2007 Michael L. Printz Award Honor Book and a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize. His next novel, Paper Towns, is a New York Times bestseller and won the Edgar Allen Poe Award for Best YA Mystery. Starting in 2007, John and his brother Hank were the hosts of a popular internet blog, "Brotherhood 2.0," (aka [vlogbrothers](https://www.youtube.com/@vlogbrothers)) where they discussed their lives, books and current events every day for a year except for weekends and holidays.
