So, this book is one of those heartbreaking novels which will keep on breaking your heart every few pages and you still keep reading it collecting the pieces of your broken heart time and time again. I actually started my 'full-fledged' reading marathon from this book. It was the first novel that I read properly without giving up in the middle of it. I just couldn't.
The characters that John Green has created are so so adorable, you can't not fall in love with them. As most people know this book revolves around two cancer patients who fall in love and the way they make life beautiful, something to be cherished, for each other. But the most important fact is that it's not just about cancer, it's much more. It includes travelling, laughing, crying, loving others and also yourself, and above all embracing life as it happens to be served on your plate.
Hazel has been suffering from cancer since she was a child and now in her seventeenth year, she doesn't even move out of her house. No friends. No social life. Her mom keeps on compelling her to go out and make some friends but she just can't. She doesn't want to do that anymore.
But when her mom persuades her to go to a Support Group and she meets Augustus Waters, as charming as a guy could be, her story is to be completely re-written. Augustus is Hazel's first love and the kind of love which turns your life upside down and you can never imagine anything better that could have happened to you.
Augustus. I started loving him from the very first page of his entry. He is quirky and witty and the cherry on top of the cake is that he is a hopeless romantic.
Girls are all crazy about him, especially after Ansel Elgort played his role in the movie adaptation of this book which was released in 2014. The characters shown in the movie are exactly as I imagined them to be while reading the book. I haven't watched any better movie adaptation of a book till date. Read the book and then watch the movie. I can bet you will cry your eyes out and enjoy it at the same time. Okay? ;)
