Never before has a book made me so emotional and made me want to laugh and cry and think about the true meaning of life and what it's like to actually live. Even as I think of the beautiful characters that inhabited the story and now my heart, the tears well up. It produced deep emotions within me and it broke my heart then haphazardly stitched it back up and then mercilessly crushed it again. When Hazel felt this was the end of her was actually just the beginning. Lover of life, video games and objects that have a deeper metaphorical meaning. She then starts attending the Cancer Support Group and meets the gorgeous, clever Augustus Waters. Three years later and she is still alive, her life has been temporarily prolonged by a miracle drug, but Hazel feels dead inside and is swimming in clinical depression. The Fault in Our Stars is about sixteen year old Hazel Grace Lancaster who was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, at the age of thirteen. "My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations," Augustus once said, and this is how I feel right now, sitting in front of my computer, quite speechless. However, I will try to gather my wits about me and form a coherent review that will express just how I feel about this masterpiece. I feel as if I am the last person on Earth to read this book and that all that could possibly be said about it has been said.
