The Fault In Our Stars

Hello beautiful peopleeee.

First off I would like to say we are very sorry that we haven't posted this month, its been a very busy month for both of us!

Sooooo todays blog post is....

A Book Review.

So this month after endless nagging from many people I decided to read 'The fault In Our Stars' by John Green. This book is absolutely amazing and is a must read for everyone. The book is superbly written and is great for teenagers, especially. I am one of those people who don't particularly like to read books, I used to be constantly reading when I was younger but now at the age of 15 I rarely read. If I do read a book I tend to put it down and be bored with it after 10 minutes. This was not the case with The fault In Our Stars, I first started reading this in the hotel in Poland just before we were going out. Bad Idea. After reading the first couple of chapters I was hooked and didn't want to move off my comfy corner seat. So after finally being dragged out by my room mates I kept on wondering what was going to happen next. The next chance I got to read the book was on the plane home. This again was a bad idea. As I kept reading I got so into the book that I got really emotional over many of the scenes. Which in the end lead to my sobbing my heart out on a plane with 40 class mates and many strangers. Its fair to say I got my fair share I dirty looks. Opps. So by the end of the two hour plane journey I was sat staring at my kindle, with mascara running down my cheek and wondering how id managed to read it all so quickly.

So why is this book so amazing? I hear you ask. I believe there are many reasons for it. Firstly, I think its because its just so realist and the story line is nothing particularly out of the ordinary. A young teenage girl (Hazel Grace) has been diagnosed with cancer in the lungs, she is then made to attend a cancer support group by her mother. At the support group hazel then meets a boy named Augustus Waters. He is by far one of my favourite characters ever, he has a witty and charming personality which you cant help but fall in love with. He had osteosarcoma but he recently got told he was all clear. The story is written on their time together... ( I wont go into any more detail as I don't want to spoil the book for you all). Another reason this story is amazing is a its so heart-warming and quite inspiring. It really makes you think about life and for me it made me want to live a little because you don't know what's around the corner. The story seriously plays with your emotions. One minute you are all happy with the characters, the next you are sobbing your heart out. Though it is well worth it. Haha. The book is filled with many beautiful quotes that really help me get through every day. (cheesy, whatever :P ) .


Lastly, if you are seriously not a person who likes to read. Then fear not because they are currently making a movie off the book so we can all see it in the cinema. Hooray. I think Im going to need plenty of tissues for that cinema trip.

This is honestly one of the best books ive ever read and I am now about to start another one of John Greens books as he is such an amazing author!

Leave your comments below if you've read the book and what you thought of it?!

Love you all, Have A good rest of March.
