A classic tragic love story. I’m a little late to TFIOS party. I remember watching the movie years ago and taking part in the “Okay? Okay.” I felt the book was exactly what I expected it to be. It was young love, emotional and raw when you add the aspect of cancer. A classic gem.

This book, while I guess being cliche consider I am a teenage girl, was something that truly made me feel and connect with the characters, something I really struggle with.
