Diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer at 13, Hazel was prepared to die until, at 14, a medical miracle shrunk the tumours in her lungs... for now.
Two years post-miracle, sixteen-year-old Hazel is post-everything else, too; post-high school, post-friends and post-normalcy. And even though she could live for a long time (whatever that means), Hazel lives tethered to an oxygen tank, the tumours tenuously kept at bay with a constant chemical assault.
Enter Augustus Waters. A match made at cancer kid support group, Augustus is gorgeous, in remission, and shockingly to her, interested in Hazel. Being with Augustus is both an unexpected destination and a long-needed journey, pushing Hazel to re-examine how sickness and health, life and death, will define her and the legacy that everyone leaves behind.
Review
This books is a MUST. John Green is a genius, he created the perfect mixture of fun, love, and nerdiness throughout the whole book, and I have zero doubt in my mind that this book is my favorite. The characters are perfect, Hazel and Augustus are just brilliant and they are characters that will live forever with me. John Green I must thank you because you are awesome, and that is what this books is made of.
WARNING: DEFINITELY A TEARJERKER.
