The Fault In Our Stars

I read the book that everyone had said would make me cry.
I can honestly say I didn't cry. I came close. There was a point that I choked up, but no tears.
I read this book in two days. Barely even that. I started yesterday after school and ended by lunch on Saturday. So I guess we can conclude that it was a good book. As the author says, it was a "cancer perk." Cancer makes for an engulfing story. I was swallowed by the pain. My aunt had cancer when I was little. I didn't understand what it was, just that she was sick and she wasn't going to get better. To this day I couldn't wrap my head around the emotions and pain she wen through. But this book did help open my eyes. Even just by the smallest millimeter.
I recommend this book to everyone. It is definitely a book you won't regret reading.
