‘The Fault In Our Stars’ By John Green is a book about the power of love as it survives through the biggest tragedies, including death.
So, honestly, I picked up this book from the book-store only because of the hype that surrounded it (and also partly because I found the trailer of its film adaption REALLY intriguing).
‘The Fault In Our Stars’ is about life (and mortality), love (and its immortality) and what happens when you know that what you have today is probably all that you will ever happen to have.
Fault in our stars is painfully beautiful and miraculous. It makes your eyes moist on some occasions and then at other times, it makes you think and be grateful for all that you have. This book could have easily been a pitiful story about a teenager girl with cancer who falls in love with a boy (who also has a history with cancer). But, no this story does not ask for sympathy it just demands to be felt.
The Fault in our Stars is a deeply moving story, with some really achingly wonderful, joyous moments. This book is about learning to live (and love) when you know that both your life and your love are only temporary. But, then again, if it is not forever, then it does not love!!
This book made me realize that Hazel’s story is just one of the many stories of fighting the battle the best you can.
Life can’t be predicted, it can’t be summed up, it can’t be, on most occasions, explained rationally to our oh-so-logical mind, all it can be, is felt, lived, and embraced.
Augustus fears oblivion and that’s what life challenges him with. Hazel learns to live with her cancer (like she has a choice!). The whole thing is unfair but then the whole thing is LIFE!!!
My Most Favorite Quotes From Fault In Our Stars:
So, take a ride through this book if you want to know the power of love as it survives through the biggest tragedies, including death.

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
