This is a book about teenagers living with cancer, so go stock up on the tissues now. This is the story of 16 year old Hazel who has lung cancer. Hazel goes to a weekly cancer support group where she becomes friends with a pair of boys, Isaac, and Augustus. There is some predictable romance and a subplot involving tracking down a once famous author to figure out the meaning of a favorite book. Overall, a really great read. I hear they're making a movie based on this book and am looking forward to it.
