Goodreads Description:
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.
Review:
*Spoilers*
Well then. I just noticed i
never gave a review on one of the best books out there. I hardly give
books a rating of 5 unless i want to be buried with it. In this case
yes.
This book was enjoyable and recommended to me by various of
whacked fanboys and fangirls who i am proud to share the same
weirdness. Now the book was really funny in the beginning, Congratulations! You're a girl, now die! That was hilarious. Towards the end, my heart started breaking because of Gus and Hazel's relationship. I knew one was going to die but it was so hard taking it when it did happen. That should never happen to anyone. They found love and a loveless place and once they did, evil took over and stopped it all. I wanted to cry when Gus died. I just sat there in the busy Barnes and Nobles I was in that day with my coffee, just staring at the page. My mom almost brought me home but i told her no, that i had to finish this for Gus.
I really enjoyed this heartbreaking story and i've just read Looking for Alaska but it just isn't the same. This book was heartbreaking the whole way and in some way, i can relate except for the chance and love. The thoughts Hazel has are like my own.
