Rating: Loved it!
"When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton's type is girls named Katherine." John Green creates a laugh-out loud world in this humorous book.
At the opening of the novel, we find washed up child prodigy Colin wallowing in self pity. His 19th girlfriend, all of them named Katherine, has just dumped him. That's when his best friend Hassan comes in with the news that they're going on a road trip.
They soon find themselves in the little town of Gutshot, Tennessee, with a dead archduke, jobs and no Katherines. Here the two of them meet Lindsey and her pink-loving mother Hollis. And in this small town, Colin develops his Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability. In other words, he takes on the impossible and sets out to prove how every relationship will end.
With bloodthirsty wasps and Satan pigs on their tail, this road trip is guaranteed to be one that you'll never forget. Packed with random facts and outstanding anagrams, this novel is a summer must read.
