The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

5.0

AWESOME BOOK!
Recommend for middle school reading or higher. There is some explicit language and implied sexual relations between main characters - but done nicely.
Since I have a sister who died - "cancer is a side effect of dying" - you have to read the book to,get it - or have known someone with cancers who died. So the book had other connections for me - might be different for a reader who only knows of "cancer". But reading it will give a reader some insight as to what cancer survivors are going through and felt and what cancer victims had to endure. The first love thing in the book is just another twist in the plot of the story - but so true for teens with cancer and what they might not experience in their short lifetime.
