“‘Okay?’ ‘Okay.’”
Right from the beginning I fell in love with John
Green’s The Fault In Our Stars. The story tells of a teenage girl with
lung cancer who must overcome the fear of her disease and live her regular
teenage life. Even though Hazel Grace Lancaster despises doing anything that doesn’t
involve reading and some quality alone time, her mom forces her to go to a
focus group with other diseased teens, but Hazel actually turns out to like it.
Well… she likes an aspect of it. Augustus Waters. A gorgeous, one legged boy who has an
exquisite use of language. As I read deeper and deeper, the two begin to fall
into an amorous relationship filled with alarming spikes of disease. This book
absolutely will tug on your heart strings but it is a definite must-read.
