Cassandra Lopez's Debut Guest Review: The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

The fault in our stars by John green

I was introduced by this book from a relative. So I went on their recommendations. 

The book cover is bright and eye catching with clouds!

Picked it up from waterstones at half price - bargain!

The fault in our stars is about a young girl called Hazel Grace who has cancer of the lungs. She attends a cancer kid support group regularly where she meets a boy called Augustus Waters, without giving too much information out, she becomes very close with Augustus.

In this book, Hazel re-reads a book called "an imperial affiliation" by Peter Van Houten. She decides because the book didn't end properly she sends the author fan mail. She gets nothing back - however Augustus gets involved after Hazel asks him to read the book, without giving too much away for anyone who hasn't read the book!

This book is all about children dying of cancer (and surviving) so it is a sad novel. I thoroughly liked the character "Isaac" he has cancer of the eyes, however despite that he is a very bubbly character. Both Hazel`s and Augustus`s parents were very understanding. 

The film to this book is coming out soon I shall be watching it when it comes out!

I thoroughly recommend this book it's sad, but funny at times, I couldn't put it down! I read the book in 3 days! It gets a definite   stars from me!

Book Review: The Fault In Our Stars by John Green

Title: The Fault In Our Stars

Author: John Green

Publisher: Penguin

Publication Date: 2012

Blurb

Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.


Verdict

Firstly I want to say a massive thank you to one of my dear book friends Kayla Oliver for recommending me to read The Fault In Our Stars and kept saying that I will love it and I got the chance to read it today on a very lazy Sunday and I got drawn in so quickly and had it finished in 6 hours.

I have a confession....I feel I could write a perfect long review for this and be like this happens and you will cry or laugh. But I think with this book you need to sit down and curl up with the book and be prepared to be drawn in the book so quickly and love the two main characters Hazel & Augustus as much as I did. 

You will certainly Laugh and most definitely will cry so have a box of tissues ready but The Fault In Our Stars really is a sad but the most beautiful book I have read this year, One thing I have realised is I don't understand how people could hate this book as it is a very touching story which will grab your heart and you will feel the pain but you will love it and will not forget about it for a long time after.

The Fault In Our Stars is the first book I have read by John Green and I will definitely be going out and buying the rest of his books right now!
A must read if you haven't read it already!
Beautiful, Perfect, Heartbreaking but some parts are laughable too.
Deserves this rating so much.
