Faultless Stars

Recently, I have found this tearjerker love story which happens to be John Green's The Fault in our Stars. But I would say their stars are impeccable (faultless). Here's a short overview of the whole book.

The Fault in Our Stars

by John Green

STORYLINE:

Hazel and Augustus are two teenagers who share an acerbic wit, a disdain for the conventional, and a love that sweeps them on a journey. Their relationship is all the more miraculous, given that Hazel's other constant companion is an oxygen tank, Gus jokes about his prosthetic leg, and they meet and fall in love at a cancer support group. Written by Anonymous

TFIOS' lead characters, Hazel Grace (Shailene Woodley) and Gus (Ansel Elgort).

What made the story special somehow, perhaps, is because Hazel Grace and Gus are both sick - sick to death. People who happen to accept the reality that they won't last too long on earth as much as they wanted because they do not hold their own lives - our own lives. I've had this A-Walk-To-Remember impression at first with the story but the two are TOO different from each other. Yes, they're both great and both of them broke my heart. Broke my heart in the sense that I got too affected with the story. To be honest, I felt sick all throughout the reading but thank God I'm only asthmatic not a cancer-infected-person like Shailene's character Hazel.

I've read the story more than once now and I still could not finish the last chapters without the crying thing. The story made me feel happy, sad, broken and in love of course. I had this hey-I-need-to-share-this-story-because-it's-great feeling. Hazel Grace and Augustus became my literary buddies whom I turn to whenever I feel like I need a friend though yeah I've got real friends in real life. Recently, TFIOS movie was released in theaters and it's so great to see your oh so loving love story turn into a film.

It best fits teenage readers/audience but recently my Mom watched the movie and gave me a great feedback about it so yeah, let's erase that first five words. It's a story for everybody. A story where you can get courage from two people trying to fight cancer and live their lives like all of us do. Their imperfections made them both perfect though nobody is perfect. Their love for each other seemed so genuine that it broke my heart when they had to part  because Gus died in the story. It is saddening when someone you love has to leave and Gus's character is what I have been looking for for quite some time now. Somebody who shares the same interests as yours especially when it comes to reading. On the latter part of the story, I started having this Hazel Grace's thoughts about the possible sequel for the story like how she reacted to Peter Van Houten's An Imperial Affliction  and if I'll have someone like Gus who'll grant my wish to meet and talk personally with John Green then that will be awesome. Real awesome.

The exact scene when Gus told Hazel about meeting Van Houten in person.. in Amsterdam. (One of the best parts of the story, I must say.)

Here's the trailer for you to watch! Enjoy and be in love!
