The Fault in Our Stars
John Green
I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once.
Despite the tumour-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis.
But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.
Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars brilliantly explores the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.

Reviews
This brilliant, emotional book had me in tears by the end. It is beyond comment.

This book hit different. The incredibly deep and mature themes besides romance was a shock to me. In fact, it could be considered a philosophy book more than a romance. Th is book really made me sit down and think, and opened me to a whole new way of thinking and someone else's mindset of looking at life. This emotional rollercoaster of a book has to be among the top few books I've read in my life, no wonder it's a bestseller. I recommend it everyone, regardless of whether or not your a romance reader, because I'm not either and I still loved it. I really enjoyed reading this book, despite the ache it left in me after it's abrupt ending, I sat there in shock for a few minutes, alas "pain demands to be felt". Doesn't it?

I liked Hazel the most out of the characters, I thought the book was like a roller coaster. It had its happy moments and its sad ones, I cried when Gus died. Yes I would recommend it to someone else.
