Synopsis:
Hazel Grace Lancaster (FMC) is a sixteen-year-old with terminal cancer, content to be a “grenade“ that minimizes collateral damage. Then she meets Augustus Waters (MMC) at a cancer support group—a charming, metaphorical-loving amputee who turns her world upside down. Their story unfolds on a trip to Amsterdam and in the stark reality of hospital rooms.
My Take:
Don’t let the “sick lit“ label fool you. This book is not a tear-jerking melodrama. It’s sharp, hilariously funny, and brutally honest. The banter between Hazel (FMC) and Gus (MMC) is fantastic. The author doesn’t shy away from the fear and pain of illness, but what shines through is the vibrant, defiant life force of these two characters. It’s about living fiercely within your limits. I laughed, I cried, it hit me right in the feels.
