The Fault in Our Stars
ISBN: 0525478817
Title: The Fault in Our Stars
Author: John Green
KDL Description:
Wow. It isn’t often that a book is so easily readable and still so touching. Hazel is a girl with cancer. She has gotten treatment that has bought her some time, but she basically sits at home miserable all the time. Until one day, she meets Augustus at a support group. This book is funny, sad, uplifting and depressing all at the same time. I could not put it down.

Amazon Description:
Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.
Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green’s most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.
