The questions of mortality and life after death that are tackled in the book are never preachy or over the top, and it is refreshing to see a point of view so frank and open about life and death and dying.<\/p>\n Augustus Waters is one of the most compelling characters I have ever come across. All the characters in the novel are engaging and entertaining and sometimes irreverently funny, and always real. I never once felt as though these could not be actual people somewhere in the world.<\/p>\n I\u2019ve never simultaneously loved and hated a book so much. This book took me on a roller coaster of emotions, and I could not put it down, even when it hurt my heart to keep reading. It\u2019s one of those few books that will stay with you all your life, and it\u2019s made a fan of John Green\u2019s writing, as I am of his vlogs and blog.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 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.

\nby John Green<\/p>\n\n
\nTFIOS is the first book to have broken my heart so completely and made me cry. John Green took me on a journey with Hazel. It wasn\u2019t her full story, but it\u2019s a snippet of Hazel\u2019s life that tells us her character, almost completely. The story starts with a 16-year-old dying from cancer and ends with a 16-year-old dying from cancer.<\/p>\n
