The Fault In Our
Stars by John Green
16 year-old Hazel was diagnosed wth cancer at the age of 12, she's
put on all sorts of medications, and has to carry around an oxygen tank
eveywhere because her "lungs suck at being lungs". The drugs help
keep her tumors at bay, but she realizes she's never going to get
completely better. Hazel would spend all day watching "America's Next
Top Model", or reading her favorite book, "An Imperial
Affliction", all day, every day if she could, but her mom forces her to
attend a support group for cancer kids. One group meeting, she meets this guy,
Augustus Waters, who was forced to come by his friend Issac, and is currently
in remission from osteosarcoma. Augustus takes an immediate interest to Hazel,
and changes her life, completely.
This is a seriously amazing book, it's not like any other
"cancer book" out there. The book is actually hilarious, and it plays
with your emotions. The only time I wasn't laughing, I was crying. The ending
was so sad, it didn't happen the way I expected it to, but I loved it. I will read
probably read this book a bunch more times, and never get tired of it. In my
opinion, this is John Green's best book yet. I highly reccomend this book. I
promise, you won't regret reading it.
