THE FAULT IN OUR STARS

Some weeks ago I read the book The Fault in Our Stars (Bajo la Misma Estrella in Spanish) so I decided to write about it.

The book is about a sixteen-year-old girl called Hazel Grace; she is a cancer patient and because of her cancer she has to use a portable oxygen tank to breathe properly.

One day her parents take her to a support group where she meets Augustus Waters, a seventeen-year-old that had osteosarcoma (a kind of cancer). They soon become friends and they fall in love.

Hazel likes a novel called An Imperial Affliction so much but she doesn’t get the end because it ends midsentence so she and Augustus decide to make a trip to Ámsterdam to visit the autor.

The Fault in Our Stars is written by John Green, an American author of young adult fiction. At 2006 he won a prize for his novel Looking for Alaska and The Fault in Our Stars (his most recent novel) debuted at number 1 at the New York Times Best Seller list in 2012.

I loved the book, it’s really good but also really sad. I love it because it’s about a love story that could happen in real life, I mean, it’s non-fiction. I really recommend it.
