The fault in our stars

Summary- Despite the tumor-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.





Favorite Quotes:"I'm a grenade and at some point I'm going to blow up and I would like to minimize the casualties, okay?"


(Warning : Even those this book it sad. It is amazing, and so worth it. It is a great read. You will laugh, smile, chuckle, and cry.)

This book turned out to be one of those books that you hate so much , yet it is impossible not to love. I hate that it made me laugh and cry all at once. I hate that it made me so sad that I was happy. After reading this book I sat and cried. I hate that it made me smile so  much.  After I was done with this book, I asked why did I do this to myself? I hate that this story is stunningly overwhelming, insightful, irreverent, raw and devastating...and to quote Markus Zusak, it's the kind of story reading which" You laugh, you cry and then you come back for more." 

This book decided  armed itself with adorably precocious teenage characters ( that I fell in complete love with) delivering insanely quotable lines while dying from cancer. All I have got to say is.... that's not cool,  not cool at all. For most of this book I was like, " I not crying, my eyes are just really sweaty" . After reading this book I was all like




I wish so badly I could give this book more than 5 stars. John Green is absolutely amazing(and sort of a twisted dude for coming up with something so sad and happy at the same time) . The Fault in Our Stars had me laughing and crying, then laughing more and crying more. I will reread this over and over again. And even better..... there is a movie coming out based on the book the trailer is below.

  2. This book is amazing! I cried so hard though, but it was worth it. I wrote a letter to Augustus Waters due to my overwhelming emotions!
