GoodReads Description

Diagnosed with Stage IV thyroid cancer at 13, Hazel was prepared to die until, at 14, a medical miracle shrunk the tumours in her lungs... for now.

Two years post-miracle, sixteen-year-old Hazel is post-everything else, too; post-high school, post-friends and post-normalcy. And even though she could live for a long time (whatever that means), Hazel lives tethered to an oxygen tank, the tumours tenuously kept at bay with a constant chemical assault.

Enter Augustus Waters. A match made at cancer kid support group, Augustus is gorgeous, in remission, and shockingly to her, interested in Hazel. Being with Augustus is both an unexpected destination and a long-needed journey, pushing Hazel to re-examine how sickness and health, life and death, will define her and the legacy that everyone leaves behind.

Ashley (ashleyc29) I finished it last night. It was so good. It was a bit of a roller coaster of emotions. I can't remember the last book that made me cry like that.


Cassie (crk815) I read this book for a face to face book club! I LOVED it! I thought relationships were amazing! It's made me want to read more of his


Jeshu (jeshusauria) I want to read it so baaaaaad :D


Maggie the Muskoka Library Mouse (mcurry1990) Predictable from the start, but still an enjoyable read.
