Hazel and Augustus are two teenagers who share an acerbic wit, a disdain for the conventional, and a love that sweeps them on a journey. Their relationship is all the more miraculous, given that Hazel's other constant companion is an oxygen tank, Gus jokes about his prosthetic leg, and they meet and fall in love at a cancer support group.

My review for the book.
REVIEW:
Oh. My. Gawd!!!
I'm a mess right now. I cried so much that my face hurts and I can't breathe, but this was an incredible movie and such a touching love story.
After reading the book, it does such a fantastic job of portraying what I had envisioned. I loved Augustus in the book and I loved him in the film. The two actors that play Augustus and Hazel were so well suited to the roles.
I did notice a few changes to suit the film, but it was alright....
This is one of those movies that I could watch again and again. So heartbreaking, yet, so real. Plus I laughed out loud so many times. Just all around wonderful movie.
Maybe not a date night movie, since you're guaranteed to break out the ugly cry, but totally worth watching it any other time. :-)
4.5/5
