The Fault In Our Stars by John Green



I read this book in a day. Which is something for me. I'm usually a pretty slow reader, but this (as with almost every book by John Green) was a breeze to get through. While this is a book about cancer, it's not your "typical" cancer book.

The narrative follows Hazel and Gus, two teenagers who have had their fair share of cancer trouble, as they get to know one another and learn to live with their diagnosis. Through pain and heartache, love and laughter, this story depicts some of the truest emotions that a person can feel and does so in a graceful manner.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and am very excited for the movie! I'm going to choose to leave this review short so that I don't spoil anything about the story. If you've read anything by John Green before, and you found that you enjoyed it, this one won't disappoint. If you've never read anything by him: then I highly suggest that you do so. ASAP. (My personal favorite is Looking for Alaska -- so that's what I'd suggest you read first; but all are great.)

Oh. Here is a picture of the movie poster:
