As he read, I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.

it was real, it was honest, it was brutal

thoughts while reading

p24:

I didn't tell him that the diagnosis came three months after I got my first period. Like: Congratulations! You're a woman. Now die.

oh girl 😳

p28: gus is really funny roasting his parents about the encouragements
p31: aww poor girlie pop trying desperately not to faint

p55: ansel elgort seems to be a perfect match for what I've read of augustus so far
p118: gus is such a flirt but also maybe probably desperate to get laid
p125: screams internally

p147: aww augustus on his first flight is pretty cute
p153: augustus is such an icon and honestly goals for being able to confess his love for hazel when he still thinks it's unrequited (EVEN THOUGH SHE TOTALLY DOES LOVE HIM)
p159: i am marvelling at the insanity of the situation
p164:

"Kind of hard to believe anyone could ever find that annoying," Augustus said after a while.
"People always get used to beauty, though."
"I haven't gotten used to you just yet," he answered, smiling

GIRL never mind hazel, i'm blushing

p171: gosh reading their excitement about meeting van houten and knowing how it's all going to go down is a little melancholy
p181:

"Do you know why I left America, Lidewij? So that I would never again have to encounter Americans."

😅
p192:

"Like all sick children," he answered dispassionately, "you say you don't want pity, but your very existence depends upon it."

hmm is he wrong in this specific instance? everything else is pure nonsense but to my understanding at least, this specific sentence contains a shrapnel of truth. i could be wrong, and i don't think it in a mean way. like (and this is a bit of a silly example) augustus' driver's license. he shouldn't have gotten it, but ✨cancer perk✨ the instructor took pity on him but her pity didn't upset him then because it benefited him

p210: my heart aches a little knowing that augustus is about to sit hazel down and tell her

about his cancer being back

p225: simple but perfect comeback to being accidentally groped by a blind friend 😌

p251: i might die if someone said that in front of any adults in my life

p253: i'm on chapter 20 now and i still haven't cried but i'm guessing there's plenty of time
p260: i'm probably about to start crying after reading the

eulogy and seeing that augustus dies

on the next page. i can feel it coming
p278: i'm still not crying
p308: where are these tears i was promised i would cry?
p313: augustus is an absolute legend and i feel it would be a great honour to be the last love of someone's life
