It's about a teenage girl with cancer. Her name is Hazel, Hazel Grace Lancaster. She's on medication that is shrinking the tumor to buy her a few years. She's been in and out of hospital for years. She was diagnosed with cancer when she was 13 years old. She has to have oxygen with her 24/7, if she doesn't she'll have difficulties breathing. Her mum and dad want her to join a cancer kid support group but she doesn't want to go. However she does in the end. Just to keep her mum and dad happy.
In the group she meets a boy that has cancer. His name is Augustus Waters, but people call him Gus. Gus had cancer in his leg. They had to cut off his leg and now he's got plastic one. They became very good friends.
They went to Amsterdam to meet a man called Peter Van Houten. They wanted to meet him because he wrote a book about his daughter that had cancer. He wasn't a very nice man. They came back home and Gus fell ill. He was rushed into hospital because the cancer came back. It wasn't good news. He had cancer everywhere in his body. Gus is DYING! Hazel is upset because she's found her true love. She thought she'll never feel this way. Gus dies.
I like this book because it helps me understand what children go through when dealing with cancer, and that's my favourite book.
Thanks for reading my post, love you all your sincerely Sioned xx
