The Fault in our Stars is a heart wrenching book. I literally could not put it down. I finished it in a couple hours with many tears. It follows Hazel Grace as she battles her lung cancer. She has hardened herself to her reality until she meets Augustus. He wakes her up to what she is missing. To living a bit outside of her diagnoses. It feels very real in how it talks about dying and cancer and what it means to be a young person living in this world. I highly recommend it.
