To all my fellow The Fault In Our Stars readers and lovers.

To all my fellow The Fault In Our Stars readers and lovers.

I have come to bring some breaking news.

I only have 83 pages left in the book, and all I want to do is cry because I do not want it to be over so soon!

But! Don't fear, I have come to talk about this wonderful book full of greatness. As we all know cancer really sucks, at the beginning of  TFIOS Hazel really takes having cancer as her not being able to live at all and not go places and experience love or an actual life. I could understand where she was coming from though, I probably would not want to face the world and have everyone treat me different like I was a charity case. So if I was Hazel Lancaster, I would sit in my room all day, watch many seasons of Gossip Girl, 90210, or One Tree Hill and eat lots of Greater's Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. But part of me would also realize, "I'm dying" and I need to do something with the rest of my life. I think Hazel realizes that when she meets Gus, the book obviously doesn't just come out and say it but I believe her character changes in the sense of wanting to do something with the time she has left. If she never would have met Gus at the support group, Hazel probably would have never gone to find the answers for An Imperial Affliction with him and would have never found love. For those of you who have not read this book, I do not want to ruin it for you so leave now and go read it!

The Fault In Our Stars

Last week after I rewatched the trailer for The Fault In Our Stars about 30 times, and decided that I might as well read the book because I loved the trailer and my friends keep telling me to just keep reading it. I started from the beginning instead or where I left off, and OH MY GOSH I LOVE IT! It is by far my favorite book because there is always something that happens next to keep the story alive. 

Hazel has cancer and doesn't know how much time she has left. But her mom thinks she is depressed because all she does is sit in her room her so she makes her go to this support group. At the support group she meets this guy named Augustus Waters and he also has cancer. Do they fall in love? Overall I would give the book a big 5 out of 5 stars
