Teen Book Review – The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

Recently I read the book The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. In this book the main character, Hazel, is suffering from a type of lung cancer. In the beginning of the book she is depressed from living a life with a terminal illness. But throughout this book she progresses and grows in who she is and forms strong relationships. While this book is a romance, it is very beautifully written. It is a page turner and was a wonderful read. I highly recommend this book for teenagers ages 13-18. I was 15 years old when I read it. It was an easier read for me but still focuses on more difficult themes and kind of an iconic teenage read in my opinion. Another thing I loved about this book was that it wasn’t a sleazy high school romance, but a romance of two mature high schoolers. Sometimes I think it is very difficult to find good novels that are both interesting, but appropriate. I think the Fault in Our Stars is one of the rarer books that falls in that category. I hope you read it and enjoy!
