"I fell in love the way you fall asleep:
slowly, then all at once."
Despite the
tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a
few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal,
her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a
gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly
appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is
about to be completely rewritten.
Insightful, bold,
irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is
award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and
heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny,
thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in
love.
** A thought-provoking love story from the
New York Times bestselling author of Looking
for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines,
Paper Towns and - with David Levithan - Will
Grayson, Will Grayson.
** John Green has over 1.2
million Twitter followers, and almost 700,000
subscribers to Vlogbrothers, the YouTube channel he
created with his brother, Hank.
** The Fault in
Our Stars will capture a crossover audience in the
same vein as Zadie Smith, David Nicholls' One Day
and Before I Die by Jenny Downham.

'Electric . . . Filled with staccato bursts of humor and
tragedy' - Jodi Picoult
** 'A novel of life and death
and the people caught in between, The Fault in Our
Stars is John Green at his best. You laugh, you cry,
and then you come back for more' - Markus Zusak, author
of The Book Thief
