If you are a fan of John Green's previous books (Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, Paper Towns, and Will Grayson, Will Grayson), or if you are just a fan of bittersweet love stories, you should check out his new novel The Fault in Our Stars.

This is all working out fine for Hazel until adventure walks into her life in the form of Augustus Waters, a witty (and gorgeous) new arrival at her support group. Suddenly the world opens up for Hazel in ways she didn't think were possible. She's falling in love, making friends, and tracking down the elusive author of her favorite novel in a quest for closure. Join Hazel for her adventures and check out this sweet, funny, and heart-wrenching story of love in the face of terminal illness.
