Book Review: The Fault in Our Stars by John Green @realjohngreen

 

The Fault in Our Stars 

By John Green

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.

Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars brilliantly explores the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.

My Review 

The Fault in Our Stars 

📚📚📚📚📚

Now I know what all the fuss was about. This book is deserving of all the acclaim it has received. It was simply brilliant from beginning to end. 

You will need a box of tissues by you side when you read this novel because it is desperately  sad. It is one of the most emotional books that I think I have ever read. It is also the kind of book that one only needs to read the once, for I do not think I can put myself through so much heartache again.

This is a wonderful novel, I really cannot praise it enough. If it isn't on your to-read list then it jolly well should be!

You can find it over on Amazon
