The Fault in Our Stars grips you with empathy. Hazel Grace Lancaster’s story features cancer, and it’s going to go south. But before her life is over, she decides to live. John Green develops a heavy plot point to showcase far more joy throughout the tale than the sum of the initial parts. I definitely enjoyed the story, and while it got me tearing up a few times, it sends a powerful message of hope.Green paints a good, impactful picture of hope, love, and life amidst fighting the cards dealt to some of us. It feels all too real, and you invest in the characters to the point of talking back to the kindle. It’s that type of writing that makes this so compelling. I loved it.
