Alright, I’ll cut to the chase here, I hate this book and it is personal. As someone who’s parent died of cancer and then was told I should read this to ‘gain insight’ (what) on what my own mother went through (John green is just some guy he hasn’t had cancer?? why would he know what it’s like and why do we hail this book as THE cancer book)… Yeah, no thanks.
Buut, outside of like, the traumaporn, what is there to like about this book? why do people love it so much??

“There will come a time when all of us are dead. All of us. There will come a time when there are no human beings remaining to remember that anyone ever existed or that our species ever did anything. There will be no one left to remember Aristotle or Cleopatra, let alone you. Everything that we did and built and wrote and thought and discovered will be forgotten and all of this will have been for naught. Maybe that time is coming soon and maybe it is millions of years away, but even if we survive the collapse of our sun, we will not survive forever. There was time before organisms experienced consciousness, and there will be time after. And if the inevitability of human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it. God knows that’s what everyone else does.”
