Ladies and gentlemen,if you do not follow me on any social media
Now,if you don't know what it is about,than you probably should skip this paragraph,and also be sorry that you don't know how precious this is,but whatever.Point is,the books is about Hazel,a cancer girl who's supposed to die,and it is actually a surprise to the doctors that she made it for such a long time with her lung cancer or whatever.Now this lovely girl,Hazel Grace,meets a guy called Augustus Waters who's just fairytale material,and he is a cancer survivor.Obviouslythe just magically fall in love and they just have some amazing experiences together and he gives her forever within numbered days.But,this being a John Green book,it is pretty clear that one person has to die,and SPOILER ALERT,it's no the one everybody was expecting to leave this world.
Anyway,if this sounds either a)too tragic or b)too cheap roamnce to you the I strongly suggest you get a heart(which I am surprised to admit I have).Seriously,despite me just being a huge John Green fan,I strongly believe that this book is just perfect.Truth be told,I never knew of John before TFIOS,and I'm pretty ashamed to admit it,but this book showed me how insanely amazing and complex this man's mind and soul are,because it's just so emotional and unlike anything else.
It's not just a romance.And it's not just a book about cancer kids either.It shows things in such a beautiful,tragic light,John's perspective about life is just so mercilessly true and I just can't.It is all written from quite a dark view,kind of using this sarasm towards life and cancer and everything,mainly.Hazel and Gus just so realistic when it comes to life,and even if they know how messed-up things are they still get to see that shiny light and it's just unbelievably amazing and also the way how everything seems so tragic gives it much more truth,and the dark humor coming to stuff is going to make you laugh and cry at the same time,it's just so perfect.
So,I know I am about as messed up as this book,but I do hope you give it a try,and if you aren't going to read the book(and I am sorry to say that I AM JUDGING YOU if you're not,but let's leave that aside) you should at least watch the movie when it comes out because it's going to be just mental.
Okay?Okay.
Love always,
Me.
