...is a fantastic author.  For sure :)  I haven't been so taken by an author since Twilight last April (though in a completely different way--no offence Miles, but Edward is 100x better :P).  Anyways, Looking for Alaska was FANTASTIC.  I know a lot of people had issues reading it because it was kind of hard to relate to at the beginning (I did too, but I blamed that on having just finished Eldest...Alabama is just slightly a different setting).  I don't know what it was about the book that has me so obsessed, but it's really good.
There are a lot of thought provoking events in it, and a lot of hilarious ones.  A definate must read, in my opinion :D  (I would sort of classify it with The Perks of Being a Wallflower, Donnie Darko, etc..., and I'm not even quite sure why because they're definately different but there's something about it that is similar).
Currently I am three chapters into An Abundance of Katherines, also by John Green.  I didn't want to start it right after finishing Looking for Alaska due to the, event, that occurs during the book (the entire thing is dated a x many days before/after the event) but now a week or so later I'm loving it.  John Green is definately an author that if I ever see a new book by him I won't hesitate to buy a copy ^^
