BOOK DESCRIPTION: Despite the tumour-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.
Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.
John Green is the best-selling author of Looking for Alaska; An Abundance of Katherines;Paper Towns; Will Grayson, Will Grayson.
MY REVIEW: A beautiful, poignant, compelling romance set in the middle of death and dying. It's gentle, humorous, touching and explores what it means to live and die and make the most of the circumstances we are "dealt". It's a thoughtful, provocative bitter-sweet story paradoxically full of life. It's a short book well-paced and doesn't waste words. I really enjoyed it.
