Staff Picks: The Fault in Our Stars

Book Jacket for: The fault in our stars The Fault in Our Stars
John Green
2012

This heartbreaking yet hilarious novel tells the story of Hazel Lancaster, an Indianapolis teenager and medical miracle living with cancer. Preferring to stay at home and watch episodes of America's Next Top Model, she's less than thrilled when her mom suggests that she attend a Cancer Kid Support Group. But it's there that she meets the handsome and wonderfully unique Augustus Watersand her life changes forever.

Exploring the themes of life and death, living and dying, friendship and family, and young love, fans of John Green (author of Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, Paper Towns, etc.) will devour The Fault in Our Stars. Full of unforgettable characters, this novel is a brilliant, hilarious, tragic, painful, and inspiring read! Two thumbs up!

And make sure to check out the book before the movie it inspired comes out in June of 2014!
