The Fault in Our Stars

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green


The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green, is a brilliantly emotional tale of living with cancer.  The sixteen year old narrator shamelessly tells her story with humor and realistically witty dialogue for people who deal with cancer daily.  It is not a pitiful disorder, nor is it immune to jokes, but it is sad.

I absolutely loved this book and recommend it whole-heartedly.  However, it does include mature content and adult themes are dealt with maturely.  It is not a children's book, but a teenage book.  

I will not be able to carry this title in my library, but if I ran a middle school library or a high school library I would purchase this in a second.
