Connections and Recommendations: Entry 4

I chose to read the Abundance of Katherine's because I enjoy a lot of the work John Green does including on you tube and his writing. From all of his works, after reviewing them, I find that every time I learn something new and I end up benefiting from his work. This had intrigued me to read more of his writing and it had also challenged me to see if I could find the meaning behind his writing. This challenged me to think deeper about the theme or the message being portrayed by John through his writing. Therefore I am glad I continued to read his work because it feels like I have benefit myself and not just like I’m forcing myself to complete a summer assignment.

After reading I realized I was able to make connections with some of the silly teenage relationships. First of all I believe that any relationship I have been in is immature. Plus I always try to find reason behind the reason that they end much like Colin did. But if you don’t reach out to new people or you let those past experiences leave a burden on you, you will prevent yourself from being happy and from moving forward. And this is something I have personally learned as a teenage girl in high school and it’s something almost everyone goes through.


I would recommend this book to teenagers who are curious or having problems with relationships because that is what the book is based around and whoever is reading it will be able to connect to the characters and the conflict. Or I may recommend this to someone who is having trouble letting go of the past, because I feel this book does a good job of showing how that holds you back from moving forward. Therefore this book could benefit the reader because of its ability to be relatable . This is personally what I had experienced from reading this. So although this is a love story there is purpose and meaning behind all parts of the book and it is definitely worth the read.
