The Fault In Our Stars

          Hazel Grace Lancaster, a sixteen year old diagnosed with thyroid cancer , was forced to go to a support meeting along with other teenagers who are going through different types of terminal cancer. During that support meeting she meets an extraordinary soul that goes by the name of The first time that they meet they agree to read one of each others favorite books. Hazel's favorite book is An Imperial Affliction written by Peter Van Houten,while Augustus Waters offers The Price Of Dawn that is based on a video game . The two seem to be frustrated at the fact that author Peter Van Houten did not finish his conclusion of said book.After a number of dates and emotional bonding between Hazel and Augustus they embark on a journey to Amsterdam to meet Van Houten to get the final conclusion of the book seeing as how he never finished it. Unexpectedly,Van Houten is extremely rude to Hazel and Augustus, he even dared to mock their lifestyles because of the fact that they have cancer. Implying that they seek attention and extra perks. Disappointed at the fact they did not get the ending they were expecting they headed back home.The final ending will not be told in this summary if you want to know , you must read the book yourself.
          After reading the book more than three times , i can see the book from a different perspective. In a literal sense Hazel Grace is a hypocritical character because she spends so much time telling everyone to live their life and stop taking care of her , so that they won't be hurt when she dies. She spends her emotional energy telling everyone including Augustus to leave and find someone else to love because according to her she will only be in this world temporarily. In an emotional sense , she is a very caring and a mature character because she speaks about the end of the human race as if she was discussing the weather. The way that she pushes everyone away is because she doesn't want them to get hurt when she dies or in different view she doesn't want them to notice that at she died. Her character does not want her death to affect many people , because she can see it in the way that her mother quit her job to take care of her.
