Hazel Grace Lancaster is 16 and has lung cancer. After her mother decides that she is depressed, Hazel reluctantly attends a support group that meets every week in the "literal heart of Jesus". Patrick, the group leader, recites the same story each and every time and Hazel is beginning to tire of this session every week, but everything changes when the charming and handsome Augustus Waters appears. Although he lost one of his legs, Augustus was given the all clear for his osteosarcoma.

Hazel and Augustus take a ride on a roller coaster of emotions that will make them both laugh and cry. They travel to Amsterdam in search of the author of Hazel, and now Augustus's, favourite book, An Imperial Affliction. After writing numerous letters to the reclusive author, Peter Van Houten, Hazel is determined to find out what happens to the characters in the book that ends in the middle of a sentence. But whilst in Amsterdam Augustus and Hazel receive heart-breaking news that will change everything.

If you are ready for a book that will make you laugh and cry, this is definitely the book for you. Filled with humour, heart-break, joy and tragedy, The Fault in Our Stars is definitely one of the best books that I have read. This brilliant book by the amazing author John Green will stay with you long after you have read it and closed the cover. I would definitely give this book 10/10 stars!
