The Fault in Our Stars

The fault in our stars

By: John Green

Hazel Grace Lancaster is a stage IV- cancer survivor and has been for three years. When she becomes depressed so does her mother. Her mother thinks it will be a good idea for Hazel Grace to go to group counseling. At first Hazel is against it, all why wouldn’t she, she is a teenage girl. At first she is she and hesitant to go, that is until she meets Augustus Waters, who’s also a cancer survivor.

Hazel Grace is a sixteen year old girl who has to face the trials of a normal teenage girl who has to deal with the normal trial that every girl has; boys, drama, friends, and of course many more. But she also has had to deal with more, cancer. Hazel Grace has gone through what I think everyone has. She has had those days where nothing seems to go right and all she can do is cry herself to sleep. I mean what girl hasn’t done that?

When Hazel Grace meets Augustus everything changes. As she meets Augustus she meets herself. As she learns to love she learns to love herself. She has learned that what’s on the outside isn’t always on the inside. That no matter what you have that you are still a person, you are still a human being. But most importantly she learns who she is and who she has become.
