Causing a Big Stir in the US: The Fault in Our Stars by John Green (Australian Nerdfighters Don’t Wait, Get Your Copy Here Now)

I picked up The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I am totally devastated by this book. I cried when I read it, and I never cry. You don’t want to throw around phrases like “instant classic,” but I can see this book sitting next to The Catcher in the Rye. It’s that good. Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians and The Magician King

NB: Dear Oz Nerdfighters*, The stuff John says in the video above about getting the book signed is probably only valid for the US. Just so you know. The rest of the stuff he says, and he says a lot of stuff, is probably true but.

About The Fault in Our Stars : Despite the tumour-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.

Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green’s most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.

Need more convincing? These totally famous people reckon it’s cool… So read their reviews…

‘A novel of life and death and the people caught in between, The Fault in Our Stars is John Green at his best. You laugh, you cry, and then you come back for more.’ Markus Zusak, bestselling and Printz Honor-winning author of The Book Thief

‘An electric portrait of young people who learn to live life with one foot in the grave. Filled with staccato bursts of humor and tragedy, The Fault in Our Stars takes a spin on universal themes-Will I be loved? Will I be remembered? Will I leave a mark on this world?-by dramatically raising the stakes for the characters who are asking.’ Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of My Sister’s Keeper and Sing You Home

‘John Green writes incredible, honest truths about the secret, weird hearts of human beings. He makes me laugh and gasp at the beauty of a sentence or the twist of a tale. He is one of the best writers alive and I am seething with envy of his talent.’ E. Lockhart, National Book Award Finalist and Printz Honor-winning author of The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau Banks and The Boyfriend List
