I loved [b:The Fault in Our Stars|11870085|The Fault in Our Stars|John Green|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327880382s/11870085.jpg|16827462] so I decided to give this one a try. I can understand why teenagers would like it, but I felt that this was more conventionally YA than Fault. All the characters are perfectly quirky until it's more emotionally useful for them to not be. It felt like I was reading about characters in a YA novel, rather than reading about people who just happen to also be characters in a YA novel, which is what the characters in Fault seemed like.
