Review:
Goodreads Summary:
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.
Characters:
I have a crush
on Augustus Waters. Yep, that has
happened. I definitely think he is
an amazing character with a great personality. I love his dialogue with Hazel! He was such a fun character to read about, making me laugh
out loud at times. Hazel was
another amazing character; her carefree attitude at times made her enjoyable to
read. Her dialogue was realistic
and interesting. Loved both of
them!
Plot:
So everyone
knows about the plot – girl with cancer meets boy at a cancer support
group. Definitely doesn’t do the
novel justice but that is the main point.
I thought that this novel was interesting and fairly unique. Although cancer love stories have been
done several times over, I thought this one had a very unique spin to it with a
fictional book that plays a very major role in the growth and development of
the young characters.
Writing Style:
The writing
style was great! This is my first
John Green novel, and I very much enjoyed it! I loved the dialogue and the realism throughout the
novel. I thought it really made
the characters come to life. I
would be interested in checking out more of John Green’s novels.
I’m sure you have read this book, but
what did you think? Any other John
Green books you have read and would recommend?
