(  ) foof2you | Jun 25, 2022 |  2.5 stars (  ) QuirkyCat_13 | Jun 20, 2022 | I didn't think I would like The Fault in Our Stars. Turns out I was right, I loved it. Well written, entertaining and meaningful; I ripped through this in one evening. Even though I told myself I wouldn't cry, I did. Get the tissues now. If you're on the fence read the first two chapters, you'll be hooked after that. (  ) NicholeReadsWithCats | Jun 17, 2022 | Great book, great story, great characters, great author. When I turned the last page, I was amazed and actually said, "My book is done. Dammit." Oh the lines in this book! So poetic, so sweet, so funny! One of my favs: "As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all a once."(p.25) Do not be turned away because this is a book about kids with cancer, who are literally dying. I cried, of course, but I did not die. I am alive. Gus is a gentleman. Hazel is quirky and perfectly imperfect. Their favorite author was a complete ass. I loved the end, with her mom. I am bookmarking all of John Green's books! Thank you for buying this book for my daughter Val! Thank you Hannah (friend of daughter) for proclaiming John Green your favorite author. Thank you Goodreads readers for voting this a favorite book. I finally read it and am so glad that I did. I might even re-read this one!

 Allison Hunter Hill (VOYA, April 2012 (Vol. 35, No. 1)) Hazel Grace is a sixteen-year-old cancer patient, caught up in the effort it takes to live in a body that everyone knows is running out of time. When she reluctantly agrees to return to her local teen cancer support group to satisfy her mother, the last thing she expects is an encounter with destiny. New to the group, Augustus Waters is handsome, bitingly sarcastic, and in remission. He is also immediately taken with Hazel, and what begins as a casual friendship soon escalates into a full romance. Through an impressive exchange of books and words, philosophies and metaphors, Hazel and Augustus tear apart what it means to be both star-crossed lovers and imminently mortal. While Hazel fixates about how her death will eventually hurt her loved ones, Augustus obsesses about how he will be remembered; the two are drawn together by the justified anxiety they feel over endings. grades 10 to Ages 15 to 18.
