joelawrence 's review for:
The Fault in Our Stars
by John Green
I read the book in about 48 hours, believing the hype. The most enjoyable part of the book to me was the language, which was beautiful and quotable. However, I had trouble getting past how juvenile the book felt. Admittedly, it is written for a teenage audience.
Also, I feel like the smitten dying teenager was merely a trope used by the author. I think Crutcher did a better job with the same trope in Deadline, published around the same time.It was still enjoyable, just not the blockbuster book it was made out to be.
