Hazel is 16 years old and has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.  Her lungs no longer function well, and she must carry "Philip the oxygen tank" with her everywhere she goes.  Hazel believes her final chapter has already been written and refuses to go see friends and hates that her mom wants her to go to a Cancer Kid Support Group.  Then enters Augustus Waters.  Hazel meets beautiful Augustus at the Cancer Kid Support Group and her whole world is changed.

Hazel and Augustus are not typical 16 year olds, due to their diagnosis of cancer.  They have been forced to grow up too soon, and they see the world differently then normal teenagers.  These characters will grow on you through the book, and you will love them.  This book will cause you to have every emotion you can think of.  You will laugh out loud! You will be angry! You WILL cry!
