My Thoughts:
This is my first John Green book and I cant wait to read if there this good. I loved this book though I didn't cry, however it was still very heart wrenching. Gosh I love how Hazel and Augustus meet in support group and that they bounded over a book. Both of there sense of humors where prefect for each other. Augustus is my favorite character because he doesn't let things to really get to him. He's a great friend, and have a joke for pretty much everything. Hazel was a sarcastic piece of work and I love that her and her mom are so close. Isaac is a great character and wish there was more of him. I hated the twist, but only because I didn't see it coming and my heart nearly broke because of it. The traveling aspect was cool except for the fact that you find out that Peter Van Houten is a drunken jerk who like to crush dreams. Hazels mother is rock star and though her dad is a very emotional guy they both are supportive of  their daughter which is great.
    In conclusion even though this book have to do with cancer kids. It still have humor and heart felt moments that I hope they bring out in the movie.
