I will never forget the emotions that ran through me whilst reading this book! I read it before i saw the film so i could gather my own pictures and thoughts in my head. I cried so hard during my read, and cried harder at the movie! My all time favourite book.
This book was beautiful. But at the same time it wasn’t as mind blowing as I would have expected it to be. It was gutting to find out that Gus would die before Hazel and it was heart-wrenching to read through Gus’ last few days.
The humour was occasionally childish. That’s the only complaint I have and it’s not really a complaint.

Yay! A really good read! I saw the movie when it came out, so knew the spoilers in the book, but still found this a very hard to put down book. Such an upbeat and down-to-earth storyline on what should be depressing as hell subject matter and characters.
So many feelings with this book that I can’t make two full sentences without saying: “I love ….”. So, I’ll point you to the reviews of my friends Joel and Katherine (whose opinions on books I trust blindly) they summed my thoughts of this favorite to perfection.

Well that one hurt. This book is beautifully tragic and full of very likeable, real characters. I wanted to read it because the author portrays angst-ridden, intelligent teens to a T, but I also knew it couldn't end well so I hated to keep reading. Not earth-shattering, but perfect for what it is. Reminds me of a question: Do you want a full life or a long life? We can't guarantee a long life, so might as well go for full each and every day.

I hate this book. I truly do. It made me cry and laugh (usually at the same time). It made me feel hopeless and hopeful.
It made me love Augustus and Hazel.
I guess it's not the book that I hate, but the cruel b**** life can be sometimes. But it's okay.

I don't think YA books are for me.
I finished the book and I couldn't figure out my feelings for the book. I finished it. That's a plus. I cried. A few times. That's a plus. But I didn't feel like I could say I liked it. I expected more.
All my friends are raving about it. I feel like I missed something that they caught. I don't know. I couldn't connect with the characters. They were fantastical. Unrealistic. Cheesy, almost. I attribute that to being a sweet, young adult book and that just doesn't rock my boat.

Most beautiful book I've ever read. I cried at least eight times. I will definitely be reading it again
