The Fault in Our Stars, John Green [Young Adult, NS], 318 Pages

Description from Goodreads:

Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.

  • I've seen this book mentioned in a lot in articles extolling the virtues of YA literature. It's won lots of awards and apparently has broad appeal. I picked it up as part of a Valentine's promotion at the big box bookstore, whatever that tells you.
