This book was extremely intense! It was kinda like a train wreck- you can see the tragedy coming, but you can't stop yourself from running headlong into it anyway. The characters were well-written, though at times the supernatural aspects of the story were, in my opinion, more vague than necessary. It kinda felt like the author was trying to remain logical/Western science-oriented, even though she secretly wanted to get more in-depth about the phenomena being discussed. Look, it's a work of fiction; if you want to get into metaphysical philosophies in your book, then do it. Don't worry about the reader; either they will buy into it, or they won't. I also enjoyed the plot technique of flipping between two different eras, as the author also successfully employed in Labyrinth. The setting is beautifully described (I love southern France!), and everyone is (for the most part) clearly defined. It was a little harder with this book discerning which characters corresponded to whom, and I do think the ending was a little abrupt. All this drama and emotional entanglement is brought forward from the past, but then ending didn't quite equate to the depth of feeling. Overall, though, this book was great, and I highly recommend it. (If you haven't read Labyrinth, I recommend reading that first, just to get a feel for the author and her writing style, as well as familiarity with background characters and setting. Not necessary to enjoy this story, just a bit helpful overall).

"I couldn't be mad at him for even a moment,and only now that I loved a grenade did I understand the foolishness of trying to save others from my own impending fragmentation: I couldn't unlove Augustus Waters. And I didn't want to." To give a summary of The Fault In Our Stars would be nearly impossible without spoiling the entire thing. So, I simply gave you a touching quote from the novel. I think what I love the most about John Green is that he doesn't insult his readers' intelligence. He doesn't dumb the story down. He gives you a well thought-out, beautifully written story about the tragedies of life. He does this by sending you on a winding trail of laughter and tears (and let me tell you, I was tearing up in my Spanish class while reading this). The two main characters in this story are Hazel and Augustus. They come together by the one thing that brought them together--cancer. Hazel was diagnosed with stage IV thyroid cancer, and must live with it for the rest of her life. She is on medication for it, and must walk around with an oxygen machine. She fully accepts that one day she will die. Augustus, on the other hand, was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. He now has a prosthetic leg, but hey, the cancer seems to be out of his body. To him, he is on a rollercoaster that "only goes up." They both seem to have an obsession with Peter Van Housten's An Imperial Affliction. They want to know what happens to everyone else after Anna, the main character in the novel, dies. They do get a chance to find out. Another character that stood out to me was Augustus' best friend, Isaac. Like Hazel and Augustus, Isaac is a cancer survivor. He is now blind because of it. Like most of Green's characters, Isaac is also very witty. This book will have you thinking about it for well after you've read it. Green has a good way of making you think about your own life and how you live it. For some people, that's a good thing. For others, not so much, but this is a book worth at least trying.
