A Book a Week – The Fault in our Stars

As I am a huge fan of John Green, I wanted to read The Fault in our Stars the minute I heard about it. I had to wait for a long time, alas. I preordered it and then read it pretty much the moment I had it in my hands.

I’ll say it was less lighthearted than his previous novels and it was also less gimmicky. It felt like a more mature version of his work. The subject matter was heavy but it was still told in John’s magical storytelling and I loved every minute of it. Even though I’ve vowed not to read sad books, I was sad and laughing as I read this book and I am glad I read it.

I can’t wait to read more by John.

    I am also a big fan. I found myself snuffling, laughing, and smiling. The book gave me a view into a world that felt real; that despite the sadness I wanted to live in.
