John Green TFIOS

The Fault in Our Stars is written off the perspective of Hazels life, a sixteen year old with terminal cancer. Hazel attends a support group to please her mother, this is where she meets Augustus, a cancer survivor. Their relationship grows fast, after seeing that they shared the same understandings.
Even though this book is filled with the love/relationship of Hazel and Augustus there is also tragedy. I felt myself really pulling away at intense parts of the book. For example when we found out the cancer had come back, lets be honest, I think that was an emotional scene for all of us. Or when Hazel pretty bad new... Heart breaking actually about Gus. Its like... you connect with these characters and, when they suffer or die... You kind of too.
I also felt myself pulling away mot only ay intense parts.. But alson at what they would say "regular times".
When Hazel and Gus are having dinner they start screaming and going crazy, but theyre having fun so they dont really cares whos looking. There were people constantly people looking or treating them differently because of their physical apperance, but they didnt care.
All in all the restitance I felt shows that this book can be very intense at time, or very non sholonte, anf just living in the moment kind of. I really enjoyed though how this book wasnt a cliche kind of book really. It was the cold hard truth, and thats what made it very real and intense and made me want to pull away at times.
