"The Fault In Our Stars" is a #1 New York Times bestseller by John Green that has also been made into a major motion picture. This book was recommended to me by a friend and I just finished reading it and now I want to see the movie, too.
This is the story of two teenagers, Hazel and Gus, and their small community of friends. Hazel, who is being treated for cancer has been given a few more years thanks to a tumor-shrinking medical drug. She meets Augustus (Gus) Waters at a support group for teens battling cancer or survivors of cancer. Although Gus lost a leg to cancer and is considered a survivor, he is at the group to support his friend, Isaac, who is about to be blinded by a surgery that will save his life.
Although Gus is immediately drawn to Hazel, Hazel is reluctant to become involved in anyone else's life. Gus is very good, though, at worming his way into her life and Hazel finds herself the girlfriend of charming, good-looking Augustus Waters. Their teenage love story is an incredible journey of ups and downs but overall it is a heartwarming journey of love and life. I must read more books by John Green! pazt
