Although
I am once again three days late with my project 30 days 30 books and already
running out of suggestions for reviews, I am hoping that I’ll be able to
finally complete the project on 30th day.
For
Day 14 of my project, I am reviewing a book that I just read. “The Fault in our
Stars” by John Green was published in 2012.
In
the words of the narrator, it is a not a cancer book. Out of several books that
are available on cancer patients who fight and survive, or who fight till the
end, the fault in our stars is the one that takes you by surprise.
The
story revolves around a sixteen year old cancer patient Hazel, who is forced by
her parents to attend support group where she meets Augustus, which changes
rest of her life completely.
The
book is witty, crisp and fast moving. Both the characters are itched out
wonderfully. The author has taken extreme care to ensure that we do not end up pitying
the cancer patient.
It’s
a love story; it’s a book lover’s story. It is a wonderful teenage story. It is
also an adult story.
Quick,
engrossing, touching and humorous, this book is a good read if you have had a
long reading break and really can’t pick up reading again. I’d rate the book 3
out of 5.
