Post #6 Book Recommendation: The Fault in our Stars by John Green

I would recommend the book The Fault in our Stars by John Green. It is about a girl named Hazel Grace who was diagnosed with stage four thyroid cancer. She is resigned to her limited non-typical teenage life, until she meets Augustus.  Their chance meeting changes both of their lives.  Hazel is also obsessed with a book that has no ending.  Her journey with Augustus to find the ending of the book turns out to be one that she will always remember.

I liked this book because the characters were very relatable.  Hazel Grace and Augustus' relationship is sympathetic and keeps the reader rooting for them.  The side story of the book without ending is very interesting and nicely intertwined with the main storyline of Hazel and Augustus.  The development of the characters is well written and convincing.  Overall it was a really good read and I would recommend it.
