"Maybe okay can be our always?" "Okay."

The Fault in Our Stars
John Green

As is custom with John Green books, The Fault in Our Stars is composed of beautiful language, wonderful characters, and the ability to make you laugh and cry on demand.
I thought that reading another book about a girl with cancer would leave me underwhelmed as there’s only so much you can do with that storyline. Oh how wrong I was. All the characters in this book made me feel something and the relationships between Hazel and the people in her life are all written so perfectly that it makes you feel…well it makes you feel everything that Hazel does.
Hazel Grace and Augustus have one of the most beautiful written and heart breakingly wonderful relationships that I have read in a long time. Everything about their relationship is honest, emotional, funny, and their story is definitely one that no matter how many times I go back and read it will leave me feeling happy, sad, and basically feeling everything.
John Green is undoubtedly one of my favourite authors, and this book cements the reasons why he should be considered one of the greatest authors we have.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading, and everyone with a love of language. Great read. DFTBA.
