The Fault In Our Stars- John Green
The Fault In Our Stars follows the story of Hazel Lancaster who suffers from thyroid cancer and has to have an oxygen tank at all times. She goes to a cancer kid support group where she makes friends with Isaac who has eye cancer.
One day when Hazel goes along to support group she meets Augustus Waters another cancer patient, They get to know each other really well. But when Augustus wants to take things further than just being friends Hazel is apprehensive as she sees herself as a 'grenade' and knows that heartbreak is inevitable. However Augustus doesn't care as he likes Hazel too much and to show her just how much she means to him he offers his one and only wish and they will embark on such a journey that will change things for the both of them.
John Green certainly captures both highs and lows of life with cancer and so well written. Their whole story will certainly take you through the motions.
I highly recommend reading this book to anybody no matter what age you are.
5/5 stars
