The Fault in Our Stars

Review!

Title: The Fault in Our Stars

Author: John Green <3

Age Reccomendation: 13/14 (depending on your maturity and being able to handle sadenning or rational moments)

Reading Difficulty: This wasn't a particularly hard book to read, and if you are 11/12+ you shouldn't have a hard time at all. Although, at sometimes they use rather large words that you're not supposed to know - and most of the time he explains them - but just in case.

Maturity: This book discussed a subject (cancer) that is a tough subject and can be depressing. The main character has been through a tough time, and she sees life in a more blunt and sometimes pessimistic point of view. Let's just say that she doesn't like to sugarcoat it. It also discusses other kids who are going through the same thing Hazel (the main character) is going through, and they have to undergo many serious and life-changing surgeries and treatments. It can be depressing at sometimes, and it is up to you to decide if you are mature enough or not.

Overall Rating: I absoluely love this book. I give it a 6 out of 5!

Review: Again, I absolutely loved this book! You probably have heard of it, maybe you've even seen the movie, but reading the book was a whole different experience.

        Just like James Dashner, John Green is one of my personal favorites. But, he is in a totally different genre than James Dashner. Instead of blood and guts and governments trying to take over the world, he explores the life of modern day teenagers and their look on the world.

        He has written books about a prodigy, a few kids who attend a boarding school, and a boy who only dates Katherine's, but I think I like this one the best.

        This book is written from the point of view of Ms. Hazel Grace Lancaster. Yes, she does have cancer, and that has caused a difference in her view of the world and the other people around her. Hazel is not depressed, but she does tend to think that she has a caused multiple deaths and she constantly thinks that she has ruined her parents lives, by becoming the center of it.

        But, most of the time, Hazel is funny, and friendly, and best of all; sarcastic. 

        I'm not going to give to much away, so I'll just say this. Sometimes, the book can get depressing. And you're going to cry. But, you're also going to laugh. And you're going to swoon and say 'aaaaawwwwww' more than once. I believe it is the perfect combination of sadness, romance, and humor to make a book that you will read a whole lot more than once.

        If you haven't read it, do it. Like, now.

        Thank you, Adelaide.
