Tissues...lot's of tissues!! This is yet another wonderfully written book by John Green. In this book, the main character, Hazel has been diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer at the young age of 13. Two years later after a medical miracle, her tumor has shrunk for now. She is forced to go to a cancer support group for children who have/is battling cancer. While there she meets Augustus Waters, a cancer survivor and hott guy, who just so happens to be into her. Together they battle things that young people shouldn't have to battle.
This is a great book! I cried a lot while reading this book. I probably wouldn't use it in a class lesson, but would encourage students to read it for pleasure.
