I don't accept any criticism. This book is a masterpiece.
Maybe it isn't that poetic, I thought it was when I was thirteen but it is still a great book.
Lowkey a Jegulus Fanfiction, Gus as James and Hazel as Regulus, would love to read it.

Not challenging in the format and style of the text but in fact its contents, as all good books should be.

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

Ich hab das Buch angefangen und wollte es gar nicht mehr weglegen. Es ist so einfach und doch kompliziert geschrieben, man taucht ein in Hazel's Welt und wird mitgenommen auf ihrer Reise die sie mit Augustus erlebt. Es ist so herrlich erfrischend bis es so herzzerreißend traurig wird und dennoch geht es stetig weiter mit Weisheiten für das Leben. Ich habe mit dem Buch gefühlt und es verschlungen. Eine bittersüße Geschichte geschrieben in einem einzigartigen Stil.
