#25 Haley Longworth

SPOILER ALERT (THE FAULT IN OUR STARS) This past week, I was finally able to finish The Fault in Our Stars. It took me two tries because of being busy all the time, but it was definitely worth my time. Although I don't think it was as good as everyone made it out to be, it was a very good book. My favorite part was when Gus and Hazel were in Amsterdam. The details about the scenery made the Netherlands sound so beautiful, and I loved when they were at the fancy restaraunt and also when they went to the Anne Frank Museum. It created a lot of happiness before Augustus told Hazel his horrible news; that his cancer had come back and he wasn't going to survive. After they get home from Amsterdam, everything goes downhill and Gus never acts the same, which is very heart-wrenching since his character was so charismatic. The ending to the book was a surprise because it was more expected that Hazel would be the one to pass away after dealing with an awful cancer, but instead it is Gus, who had an 85% survival rate for his disease.
