It's sad and very educational. I work in the home care industry and it is an essential read. The book was better than the movie!

The Fault in our Stars was in my reading list for books to read for school. Initially, I was NOT at all excited to read this book because it was not something I usually read, and I did not want to read about someone who seems cool and ends up dying with lung cancer. But this book was such a SHOCK to me! It was a quick read for me because I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this book. After finishing the book, I could not stop thinking about it. I told my mom, dad, grammy, EVERYONE that they HAD to read this book. Hazel, in the novel, is not depressed at all having cancer, but is totally cool and real with everyone and who she is. I LOVED Augustus in this book, he made me laugh and cry to the point where I  almost sobbed! I NEVER cried when reading a book, and I'm a REALLY sensitive girl. This book is now one of my favorites, and I want to read more of John Green to see if he can captivate me like the way he did with the characters and this story. I'm SOOOO glad this book was on my reading list or I would have never read this masterpiece! I don't care who you are, but EVERYONE has to read this book! It shows you no matter how bad life can be at times, it's best to strive forward with your head up and a smile! :)

Oh I cried. I can't wait to see the movie. I'd compare this to The Notebook. Soo good but soo sad

I'm pretty sure everything has already been said about the greatness of this book. I absolutely loved The Fault in Our Stars. The humor, the characters, the heartbreaking storyline and the sweet love story made this book stay with you long after you read the last page. This was just such an enjoyable book, and yes, it made me cry... a lot. This instantly became one of my favorite books and one I would definitely reread. My ONLY complaint would be that I spent the entire book praying it wouldn't end midsentence... But The Fault in Our Stars most certainly deserves all the hype and love it's been receiving! For parents- there is some sexual content, some bad language, and themes that may be too mature and difficult for some tweens/early teens to handle.

I didn't actually read this but I listened to it on a audio cd. The fault in our stars is (as you probably know already) about a teenage girl who has terminal cancer and she meets a boy who is in remission and they fall in love. It is very well written but I'm afraid that if I sat down to read this in my own I would have lost interest because of the way hazel and Gus speak sometimes. I love reading and hate stopping in the middle of a book. I think I could read it on own now, but not initially. I love this book and give it 4.95 stars which is basically 5 stars. I am at war with myself about the ending. Not giving anything away. But it is an amazing book.

This was a great book. I loved the story, although it was a bit sad. I cannot wait for the movie to come out in September. I would highly recommend this book.

Very introspective and beautifully written. I enjoyed both The Fault in our Stars and looking for Alaska however I am drawn more towards this book.

An extraordinary young adult novel, The Fault in our Stars strikes a perfect balance of tragedy and wicked humor through the eyes of teens battling cancer. I highly recommend this book, but keep the Kleenex handy.

My Son's High School teacher had assigned their class a book to read a few weeks ago. Rest of the review is written by him.

Here he goes. ...........It could be any book of our choosing, as long as it was fiction. As a fan of John Green's Youtube channel, Vlogbrothers, I had decided to read his latest work, The Fault in Our Stars. I was pulled in the book within the first few chapters.

  The Fault in Our Stars is a story about a girl named Hazel Lancaster. She is 16 years old with terminal thyroid cancer, and is forced to carry around an oxygen tank and cannula wherever she goes to help her breathe. Her parents make her go to a Cancer Support group to help with her cancer. The Cancer Support group is a small group of about 10 children, all with some form of cancer. The support group is dull and uninteresting, until she meets a boy named Augustus Waters. Augustus suffered from Osteoarcoma (a type of bone cancer), and he now wears a prosthetic leg. Both of them fall for each other, and when Augustus decides to take Hazel to see "V for Vendetta", the plot unfolds into a story of Brobdingnagian proportions that will make a reader cry, laugh and smile.

  What I truly enjoyed about this book, is not only the plot, but the portrayal of teenage life, the quality of the English, and the realism. This Book is young adult literature, and when I had heard this was a love story, I (and an assuming reader) was expecting cheeky "boycrushes" (quoting another reviewer), lust, and breakup. However, I was in for something extraordinarily different when I saw Hazel and Augustus. She shows her intelligence with her words, her emotions with her struggle against cancer. "This World is not a wish granting factory" is a quote that saddened me when we learn about Augustus's cancer. Hazel is inquisitive and smart, just like Augustus; they contemplate life, purpose, philosophy unlike day-to day teenagers who can't imagine their situation.

  The message of the book is by far, a message that I will never forget. Augustus says that humans are always trying to leave a mark on this world, to be remembered after death, to do something memorable. However, he says something very different about Hazel. Hazel "treads the earth lightly"; she doesn't care about the mark that she makes, and instead notices the small felicities of life, notices that her time on earth is short, and she must enjoy it to her fullest, not get caught up in making a mark in history, to try to be remembered. "That is the real heroism in her", says Augustus.

I hope everyone enjoyed this review, and will purchase The Fault in Our Stars. I will move on to John Green's first book, Looking for Alaska

'THE FAULT IN OUR STARS' is by far on  of my favorite books. It's made me look at things a total different way and accept & be grateful for all that I have and love the ones who love me unconditionally. I can't deny that I won't ever read this book again because  that is not true. there is honestly no better way I would wan this book to end. Thank you for the opportunity to fall in love with a new peace of art John Green. - Jade Norah Curry

I am a college student. I read textbooks. I can't tell you when the last time I read for fun was. I received this book from a friend as a Christmas gift. My friend knows that it takes a lot for a book to impress me. I had no idea what The Fault in Our Stars was about. I started reading this book and throughout the first five chapters I found myself laughing and crying at the same time. I was happy and sad at the same time about two fictional characters, dealing with the deadly disease of cancer, falling in love. I have laughed at books and I have cried at books but I have not laughed and cried at a book at the same time. John Green was so descriptive about every detail. When Hazel and Gus were in Amsterdam on their dinner date, I could picture in my mind exactly what the scene looked like. After Gus told Hazel his cancer came back and those chapters when you knew he was dying, I sobbed. "You don't know what you have until it's gone." The truth is Hazel knew what she had she just never thought she'd lose it...I have heard rumblings of this book becoming a movie and God, I pray that it doesn't become a film. My Sister's Keeper is my favorite book, ever. I saw the movie and seriously was distraught at how much it changed. The Fault in Our Stars is too great of a book to be tampered with.

i cant wait to see the movie for this novel. this one made me cry. as i read it i thought about parts from his other books as well. while the ending is predictable i would still read it again and recommend anything written by nicholas sparks. a tale of two kids that fall in love but seperate only to reunite later in life to find each other still in love.

Beautiful and touching story that spoke to my heart in so many ways. I wish the movie could have included more of what happened in the future. This is a book that everyone should read. Love touches us all!

Hazel is a 16 year old who was diagnosed with Cancer at a very young age. Since then her life has exsist of hospitals,  doctor appointments, testing and oxygen machines. Seeing Hazel slipping into depression, her mother urges her to attend a support group for kids with Cancer. This is where she meets the amazing Augustus Waters. An event that wakes her up and changes everything.

This is the second time reading TFIOS, and its just as heartbreaking as the first time I read it. The story of Hazel & Augustus is beautiful, real and absolutely gut wrenching.  Once you start, you won't want to put it down. It will make you laugh and cry and then cry some more. John Green is a master storyteller and The Fault In Our Stars, so far is his best.  I'm always amazed how well he captures what its like and what it is to be a young adult. His characters are always real and true. A must read for all ages.
