“Okay? Okay.” The Fault In Our Stars is a book about a heart breaking love story between two teens who have fallen in love. From the day they first saw each other, in Support Group, they couldn't keep their eyes from each other. From venturing to Amsterdam to watching children play on giant size human bones, they had many adventures. If you have read this book, then you know “okay” is a very special word. When they say it to each other it signifies their love for each other, letting each other know that they are in love, all with one simple word- “okay”.

Hazel Grace is a strong, independent girl who knows what she wants in the world. She was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer at 13 years old. Now at 16 she is making it by with a tank of oxygen by her side. Her mom wants her to get out and socialize so there she was at support group, locking eyes with him. Augustus Waters. Augustus is 17, once diagnosed with Osteosarcoma, but he is okay now. Augustus thrives to be noticed by the universe. He wants to die a hero. But, he doesn't realize that he was a hero, he was Hazel’s hero. He saved her from a life not lived. He loved her, and he showed her how to love back.

The Fault In Our Stars is a great book for many reasons. It helps you learn about life, and guides you into looking at it in a new way. It also tells you the story of two human beings that fell deeply in love. It tells you that love is a gift and if you are in love with someone, you shouldn't be afraid to show it. I would strongly recommend The Fault In Our Stars to anybody.
