wafaaxolotl 's review for:
The Fault in Our Stars
by John Green
So, i read this book years ago, and let me explain why I’m rating this with five stars and it’s actually a very simple reason: it KINDA changed my life.
So, I was in junior high school I think or about to start (I’m not sure, it’s different here in Mexico) and this teacher was worry about his students because we didn’t read much, so he makes us read a book as our final project I think, it wasn’t even his class, he used to teach us History, but he didn’t care and reading a book was the last project, (yes I know, you probably see where I’m going but just hear me out for a secon), so the one I was reading was not really my hit and my friend bought TFIOS and she was loving it, we were like 12 or 13, she told me everything about it, and she liked it so much that my other 2 friends wanted to read it too so I was like “I also want to read it”, and i did want to but I’m gonna be honest here, I didn’t want to feel left out so yeah, she leaned it to me and literature and I had history, I already had tried to like it but failed so I wasn’t sure what was going to happen and this friend was like “you don’t like to read, you’re not gonna finish it” and I was like “shut up, you don’t know me” and I read it in THREE days, and yeah it’s probably not impressive but for me, it was, I couldn’t believe it, and I couldn’t believe that I totally loved it, I loved it so much I wanted to read more, I liked the community of readers, and I also liked the feeling of being the kind of person that reads, I know it sound dumb but I did, and it’s not like it was perfect, my relationship with books have had its ups and downs but that’s a whole other story, anyway, I loved it and my project went great and since then I discovered a part of me that I didnt know. Yes, maybe this book is not the greatest one in history, but it was very important to me, so yeah, for me, it deserves its five stars.
