The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
I don't know if I can even write a blog entry about this book. I'm going to start crying. Every time anyone mentions trophies or video games or eulogies or cancer I think of this book and have to fight back tears.
I really liked the characters and felt drawn to them. Like, even though I can't quite identify with them and my life isn't really anything like theirs, I still could sympathize with them. And I really liked Augustus. The way he talks... and his writing... and the book... so sweet.
But I also loved Isaac and the trophy scene almost made me cry.
And the eulogies at the end- that did make me cry.
Basically, really good book. Written with a very modern feel, easy to follow, easy to identify with, good characters, inevitable ending.
And I cannot wait for the movie to come out.
