Waiting On Wednesday: The Fault In Our Stars
This week's WoW book is The Fault In Our Stars by John Green! It will be released on January 10, 2012.
SUMMARY: Diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer at 12, Hazel was prepared to die until, at 14, a medical miracle shrunk the tumours in her lungs... for now. Two years post-miracle, sixteen-year-old Hazel is post-everything else, too post-high school, post-friends and post-normalcy. And even though she could live for a long time (whatever that means), Hazel lives tethered to an oxygen tank, the tumours tenuously kept at bay with a constant chemical assault. Enter Augustus Waters. A match made at cancer kid support group, Augustus is gorgeous, in remission, and shockingly to her, interested in Hazel. Being with Augustus is both an unexpected destination and a long-needed journey, pushing Hazel to re-examine how sickness and health, life and death, will define her and the legacy that everyone leaves behind.
I've heard marvelous things about John Green's writing so I'd love to check out this book! PUBLISHED ON JANUARY 10, 2012.

THIS BOOK IS AMAZING! So amazing I can't even begin to explain; as Augustus said so elegantly in the book: "My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations." This is NOT a stupid love story! It is such a great book. Anyone who chooses not to read this book is really missing out, this book changed the way I look at things. I love this book and I'm positive you will too!
