Manju wrote: "@Sumit: Is Green GGK kind of fantastic??"

Nope, not really. The way I would differentiate them is:

GGK - great ability to build visual images in your head - starts off slow and steady, allowing you to soak in the awesomeness of his world, and conversations and interactions are not too detailed. However, they are crafted very well and leave an impact.

JG - His forte is writing about human interactions and relationships. He starts off with a knife to your gut, which you know is going to hurt, but when he does twist it and make a deep stab, you still don't see it coming.

Reading his books is like driving a car at a high speed on a dark, rainy night. You KNOW you might crash, but you can't slow down. And when you crash, you don't do so when you most expect it. Then, you manage to survive and emerge from the wreckage of your car, alive but scarred.

With GGK, I can see his world, but as an onlooker. With JG, I feel a part of his world and the pain (or other strong emotions) of the characters feel like my own.

*is depressed by remembering Alaska from Looking for Alaska*

[btwthesepages]

@Ishi: Why? Is everything okay?

[Ishi]

@Sumit: You've read Looking For Alaska??!!

booklover wrote: "@Sumit: It's that good?!?!?!"

Well, I certainly thought so. Check out my reviews, if you want - no spoilers there. :)

Ishi wrote: "@Sumit: You've read Looking For Alaska??!!"

Yes ma'am. I've also read Paper Towns, and The Fault in Our Stars.

[Em Lost In Books]

@Sumit, I've not read any Green novel yet, so can't agree or disagree with you.

but I think I've never read any other author who'd stirred my emotions like GGK does :D

@Vidya: Finish Lions soon, would love to know if you agree with Sumit or not :D:D
