The Fault in Our Stars



My Thoughts:

-    I really enjoyed this movie! I don't say this lightly either. I'm not a chick flick person, but this was good. It was a great adaptation of the book, and it was really accurate. 

-    I actually enjoyed the movie more than the book! I felt a lot more emotions while watching the movie. The book didn't make me cry but the movie did. I laughed a lot more too.

-    Ansel Elgort made this movie! His portrayal of Gus was SO good! He had so many great moments.

-    I really liked Isaac. He was like a reincarnated Ducky from Pretty in Pink! It was awesome!

-    I don't know what it is about this Woodley chick. I like her, but she isn't amazing. I felt the same way about her being Tris in Divergent.

-    I think the casting timing was not good. Ansel and Shailene play siblings then lovers then siblings again. It's weird.

-    This was a very heartfelt and cute movie. I recommend getting to a theater and purchasing a ticket for this.

The Fault in our Stars

11870085Goodreads Says:    Despite the tumor-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.












My Thoughts:

-    This book was sad, but I didn't cry or anything. I think the sadness of the book is hyped up a little too much. 

-    The ending was predictable. Shortly after meeting Gus, I knew what was going to happen. 

-    Despite the previous two thoughts, I liked the book. I thought it was good. It had a lot of good lines and awesome dialogue, and I mean AWESOME dialogue. 

-    Some of the words were big, and I didn't understand them all.

-    Gus and Hazel made me laugh. I liked the way they viewed and described things. 

-    The author guy was interesting. He was a jerk, but I didn't hate him. I thought his character was interesting.

-    I think the movie will be harder to watch than the book was to read. I'm still excited to see it though!

I knew I'd find some good ones for this book!



















I like the one with the three of them and the eggs. I also like the one where Gus and Hazel are kissing in the Anne Frank house, and the scene with Gus in the car calling Hazel.

Which is your favorite?
