"I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you." 
 I cannot describe how much I loved this book. John Green does a phenomenal job of creating characters that felt like real teenagers. The relationship development between Augustus and Hazel felt authentic and definitely swoon worthy. ALL THE SWOONS. The Fault in Our Stars is a beautifully written story that highlights the ups and downs of first love and the tragedy of a life taken too soon.
