TFIOS


I listed about 40 books that I wanted to read for summer. I just finished one. And man did it mess my eyes up! I'm crying my eyes out, John Green. Thank you for that. (Yes, in case you happen to notice, he's my favorite author. Okay, one of my faves. Na-ah. Maybe even my most favorite.)

This is the plot summary from Wikipedia:
The novel takes place in Indianapolis and is narrated by Hazel Grace Lancaster, a sixteen-year-old girl with cancer. Pulled out of school at thirteen, she rarely socializes with people her age and spends most of her time alone. After she is diagnosed with clinical depression, she is put in a bleak support group for children with cancer. There, she meets Augustus Waters, whom she soon falls for, and they learn together.
It's so good that I might have to read it again, and again. The Fault In Our Stars is, without question, one of the brilliant three books that made me cry. The other two are, The Time Traveler's Wife and Mockingjay. I cried the hardest with this book and I wanted to punch John Green in the gut because of his incredible talent. He's really, really good with words! If you really like reading, I recommend reading this. It's a must-read, really. Just be sure you have your tissue with you. And be alone while reading this. Because I cried like a baby and was really thankful that I locked my door.

I can't go into details because I don't want to spoil things for you guys. Just grab a copy, now! OH! And if you're wondering, it's worth Php649.00. But do not fret, my friend, it's worth every peso. I can assure you that.
