I went on the hold list at the Library for this book over 3 months ago. It seemed as though this book would never be in my hands. And once it was I was afraid to read it for I knew a lot of people have loved this book and have shared that the book saddened them at the end. But though it did sadden me, it was worth the 3 month wait to read it. And it is one I will be owning in the near future for I feel it will be great to read again.
If you have not already figured this out, I enjoyed this book from the very first page. Green is an amazing writer and I enjoyed the dialog between the characters, and I love the way he paints a picture without having to completely describe the scene in full detail. You understand with the words he uses and the picture becomes so vivid in your mind you feel as though you are living the story right along with the characters. And we all know how lovely it is when a book comes along where that happens.
This book is a tad depressing. I will not deny you, future reader, that. But it is worth every tear and heart ache. I will not go into any specific details on the happening of this book. What you can know, without any spoilers, is that this story is about Hazel a 16 year old girl who has terminal cancer. She is just going through the motions of living until the universe gives her Augustus Winters and her whole life changes and it seems her life is being rewritten for the better. This story will have you laughing and crying and is worth every page. I pray you pick it up.
Happy Reading!
Side note: I could have sworn I wrote a post about this book in previous months, but apparently that is not the case. So If you have not read this book, and have not heard about it the actual synopsis of this book is here;
