Okay, so I feel the need to add Nerdfighters into this site, because I met John and Hank yesterday. I guess this is technically a thread for John's books and Hank's music too. And yes, Nerdfighteria is a fandom. At least according to all the Nerdfighters that were at the TFioS tour yesterday...

OH wow. You met the vlogbrothers?! LUCKY THING!! What are they like in person? I just finished Paper Towns the other day. It's amazingly epically awesome. Margo kinda reminds me of Alaska.

It was really fun!!! They manage to be smart, funny, and philosophical at the same time The only problem is, I have this weird view of celebrities to the point where they don't really seem very famous, so I actually enjoyed meeting other Nerdfighters more! I really like Nerdfighters because I can go onto freakishly long nerd rants and no one will judge me!!!! That is also why I like this site. My all time favorite book by John would have to be An Abundance of Katherines though. I'm kind of a math geek. I liked all the other books too though. I cried so hard at the end of TFioS!!!

Also, Will Grayson Will Grayson is really good, although it is really helpful to know that there are two Will Graysons and they are BOTH narrating. I though my kindle was glitching out and that is why none of the letters were capitalized...

Yay! Another Nerdfighter! I was beginning to think there weren't any, even though everyone seems to have read John's books. Haha I wear my Pizza John shirt everywhere. You're right about the essay thing. I love them haha... I still have to read Let It Snow, which he co-wrote.

Yeah. He wrote a letter to Lindsey at the end of the book as a joke that said he was breaking up with her because that's what his relationship predicted î—

They were really cool, but amazingly, I was more affected by the mass number of nerdfighters there. It really surprised me.

I'm still so jealous that I couldn't go. There aren't many Nerfighters where I live.
