The Fault in Our Stars is a story about young love during the most terrifying time in a person’s life; when they have to face their own mortality.Hazel is a teenage girl with a fatal form of cancer.  Knowing that she’ll be gone before her time, she keeps to herself and is reluctant to attend the cancer support group her mother takes her to.  It’s there that she meets Augustus, a young man who lost his leg to cancer.  Augustus pursues Hazel and their relationship takes them to Amsterdam on a dream vacation.  Ultimately, death takes over and one of them is left grieving.This is definitely a story for the young romantic.  The Instaread Summaries did a great job outlining the story and getting the key points of the plot.  While normally this is not my kind of read, I appreciate the Instaread book version to appease my curiosity since the movie is coming out.  I will be reading the full book now before seeing the movie.
