Author, John Green, writes to evoke emotions in a reader through his inspiring story lines and philosophical ideas. Books like Looking For Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines really hit home for me as a reader. John Green's honest writing draws many young adults into the situations the characters are dealing with. The witty stories contain a deeper and more philosophical meaning that accesses the situations many teenagers are faced with. John Green uses many comparisons in humorous situations to lighten to overall mood of the book. His humor adds to the reality of what is happening in the book because with every situation, there are aspects of hilarity as well as aspects of seriousness. I feel like even though I wasn't really there, I can completely relate to Green's novels.
As a writer, I would like to be able to write in a way which draws readers in and evokes emotions in them through my writing. Bringing smiles, laughs, and tears, I would like to be able to write in a way which moves people through whatever the situations may be. Adding philosophy and inspiration to his writing, John Green is able to create a deeper meaning to any situation, which I strive to do in my writing as well.
