I am sure that a lot of people out there had read this book.
The Fault In Our Stars is the first John Green book I had read because of everyone's recommendation and of course its explosive popularity.
A very touching love story.
Very different from the usual sweet, romantic and life is a bed of roses love story.
It is quite tragic and traumatic in a way to me.
Hazel and Gus met each other, fell in love but can only love within the numbered days.
"There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful." -Hazel Grace
One of my favourite quotes from the book.
SPOILER ALERT!!!
They met each other at a support group for cancer kids. It was love at first sight. Maybe? LOL. Hazel was a bit reluctant to let Augustus love her as she thought that she was a grenade, a side effect of the universe. But there's a twist of story at the end, Gus was the ill one. An honourable mention would be the book AN IMPERIAL AFFLICTION, which both of them read and later thought that it was a masterpiece. They used Gus' one and only cancer wish to meet the author of AIA, Peter Van Hountan at Amsterdam. Both Hazel and Gus wanted to know about the ending of AIA from Peter himself. Things did not went that smoothly as Peter Van Hountan hurt them with malicious comments and they failed to get to know the ending. Hazel and Gus decided to cherish their moment at Amsterdam and made the wish well spent. It was at Amsterdam Hazel got to know off Gus' terminal illness. Not long after battling with cancer, Gus lost. He was gone forever. It was sweet that in the end he asked Peter Van Hountan to write an eulogy for Hazel. Loved till the last moment.
Some parts of the story was very unexpected especially towards the end. Never did I expect that AIA was Peter Van Hountan's personal story, that Anna was her daughter.
OMG!!! So much feels!!!
“I’ll fight it. I’ll fight it for you. Don’t you worry about me, Hazel Grace. I’m okay. I’ll find a way to hang around and annoy you for a long time.”- Gus

Full of sad and touching scene. How can people who are going to die love like that??
The movie is going to come out soon. As in June. And it will probably take ages to hit theatres in Malaysia.

ReplyDeleteLove this book. I was google-ing for a cinema in Sibu that is prob screening the movie; and I ended up here. I would stream the movie online anyways. John Green is a living legend IMO!!. Looking for Alaska is the first book of John Green that I've read, it's kinda darkish and mysterious to me tho.
