While reading The Fault In Our Stars, not even that far into the book, there is so much imagery in the text. As I am reading I can visually picture everything that is happening. I can picture the setting, what the characters look like, by their actions and words. I can also picture the meeting room in the basement of a church for the support group.
To me, that is the best thing about the book. How there is so much imagery that I can picture almost everything in the book that is happening. Also the dialog in the story is also the best thing about this book. If you haven't yet read this, or are thinking about reading it, I would highly suggest that you read it!

The Fault In Our Stars
I chose to read The Fault In Our Stars by John Green for my independent reading novel. In the beginning of the book, it describes how Hazel; battling with Thyroid cancer that just met her lungs, is being forced to attend a Cancer Support Group in the basement of a local church. With the floor of the church looking like an actual cross, the group leader announces they meet in the "heart of Jesus".
Hazels mother had thought that Hazel was depressed as a side effect of have cancer, thought it would be best if Hazel went to a support group. The support group was just for cancer victims, to talk about struggles and their feelings and how the cancer is affecting them at the moment. Hazel absolutely dreaded going there. She had one friend who was close to her. His name was Isaac. Isaac is battling with cancer of the eye is undergoing a major surgery soon.
During one of the meetings, a newcomer has his eyes set on Hazel. Newcomers name is Augustus Waters. Augustus had his eyes on Hazel throughout the whole meeting. After the meeting was over, Augustus finally came over to properly talk to Hazel. With small talk going on between them, sweet little complements are exchanged between the two of them.
I think Hazel and Augustus will start to develop feelings for each other, soon becoming a couple and expressing their struggles with battling their cancer as the story goes on. I also think one will fall very ill during the story. What do you predict will happen?
