This book almost made me cry. ALMOST!! This book started very slow but then I just fell in love with them. The only reason I am giving it this low of a score is that the book did not start out in a way I liked and it felt like there was something to be desired.

• John Green é ótimo em fazer romances clichês forçados, com adolescentes falando coisas que nem adultos de 40 anos falam. E ainda faz questão que eles recitem frases filosóficas dos usuários de Tumblr em 2013, até quando estão quase morrendo. Tornando esse livro, na época, um câncer maior que os dos protagonistas. 

• Pelo menos foi uma moda passageira, porque a Anne Frank não merece ser lembrada pelo beijo deles no memorial dela. Nada mais romântico que se pegar em um museu criado para homenagear uma vítima do holocausto (e todos aplaudiram).

 "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.” 

Better late than never is right with this one. This is my first time reading John Green, and it was exactly what I expected but also not what I expected at all. This book didn't make me cry, because I already knew that

something bad was going to happen, because this is a book with cancer, so obviously someone was going to die. But John Green is really out here killing off my favorite characters?

The writing style was very blunt at times but also very pretentious, and I actually liked it. I loved the way that Hazel and Gus's relationship developed over the course of the novel. What I didn't really like was the whole author subplot. I think this book could have been stronger without it. That being said, I read this book in the span of two days and I really enjoyed it (even if it wasn't entirely medically accurate).
