Diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer at 12, Hazel was prepared to die until, at 14, a medical miracle shrunk the tumours in her lungs... for now.
Two years post-miracle, sixteen-year-old Hazel is post-everything else, too; post-high school, post-friends and post-normalcy. And even though she could live for a long time (whatever that means), Hazel lives tethered to an oxygen tank, the tumours tenuously kept at bay with a constant chemical assault.
Enter Augustus Waters. A match made at cancer kid support group, Augustus is gorgeous, in remission, and shockingly to her, interested in Hazel. Being with Augustus is both an unexpected destination and a long-needed journey, pushing Hazel to re-examine how sickness and health, life and death, will define her and the legacy that everyone leaves behind.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
For the first time, I'm actually speechless. After I finished reading The Fault in Our Stars, I found myself torn between deciding if I wanted to rip it to shreds or treasure it. Obviously, I'm going with the latter.
This book was a messy ride - there were times I loved it and times I was weeping like a maniac.
I've heard so much about John Green's books but this is the first book I've read that was written by him. I will undoubtedly be devouring all his other books next. The only reason I'm not giving it five stars is because I can't. You'd understand why if you've read it. Funnily enough, it may also be the reason why I'm currently speechless - in a good way. I don't want to dissect/analyze it in my review. Honestly, I just want to enjoy it and the way I felt in the moments after I finished reading it.
The Fault in Our Stars was an emotional roller-coaster; funny, gut-wrenching and beautiful all at once. I loved it.

I agree! You can't just really write a review for this one. I love Augustus! <3 It's going to leave you speechless even after a couple of days or even after a long time. I do understand why you gave it only 4. Somehow, I can feel why! Though, I still gave it a 5 on Goodreads. :) Thanks for your short but honest review. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the best books I've ever read. I cried for days after. So, so emotional!
ReplyDeleteI gave this 5 stars but I understand why you can't. It was a low blow. This was my first John Green novel as well but I plan to read more!
ReplyDeleteI LOVED TFiOS, and I know many people who had trouble putting their thoughts into words after reading this book (including me). It was such an emotional story.
ReplyDeleteSide note: my thoughts are stars I can't fathom into constellations.
I loved this book as well! It was my first John Green novel too and I'm definitely going to be reading more of his books! Great review :)
ReplyDeletei will read this book soon! xD
ReplyDeleteI have read this about two weeks ago and I still can't collect my thoughts to put together a coherent review. It just blew me away, broke my heart and sent me weeping for hours.
ReplyDeleteHow do you even review a book like this one? I still don't know!
it's another inspiring book by John Green.
ReplyDeleteIt's another inspiring book by John Green. Thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loved this book! I want to read more from John Green :D
ReplyDeletei loved this book, i'd give it 5 stars if i were you. but i understand (i think?) why you rated it 4 stars. somehow there's something missing despite all the goodness.
ReplyDeletenonetheless, it's a great book!
I keep meaning to buy this book. I should probably stick it on my May 'to buy' list. Thanks for the great review, hun.
ReplyDeleteThis book was really good, it was my first John Green book too. It's been about a month since I've read it and I still can't decide if I love it or hate it. The ending just blew me away, it was cute and everything, it was just kind of frustrating.
ReplyDeleteI cried so hard during this book... Loved it too!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, now i HAVE to go buy this book. I too haven't read anything by him, but have heard SUCH amazing things about him. Thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteAgreed completely. I adored every single minute with the book, and recommend it every chance I get!
ReplyDeleteOh my God, I've been hearing some great stuff about this book. And now, I'm totally looking forward to reading it. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm absolutely in love with this book! John Green is an amazing writer. ♥
ReplyDeleteSounds like a wonderfully bittersweet read. Characters that make you fall in love with them...that's what I need. Thanks!
