The Fault In Our Stars


"Damn near genious...Simply devastating...Fearless in the face of powerful,uncomplicated,unironized emotion"
                                                                                    -Time

Yes,I'm aware of the fact that I'm probably one of the last people to come across this masterpiece-but better late than never,right?

Our main character is Hazel-cancer fighter.She was diagnosed with lung cancer when she was around 13 years old and her state didn't get much better until taking this miracle drug that helped extend her life temporarily.Because she's sick,her mum thinks that going to a Support Group will help her morally.And so she meets Augustus Waters-a gorgeous,blue-eyed distraction from the real world.Their story flourishes from there: somewhere between 'drinking stars' and the Anne Frank museum,they find true love.

I dived into this book having great expectations and I was not dissapointed. What seemed like a sad,soppy story(people with cancer,and all that) turned into a fantastic love novel.
John Green may possibly be the only author who can write from a teenage girl in the 21st century's perspective(teach me master!!).
My heart felt heavier as I read on,sinking a bit with every chapter.It's beautiful when a book does that to you,it feels truthful to the readers.

Definitely a great read,humorous and sad at the same time.

5/5
