Breathing in the Pages ღ discussion

This month's BOTM is The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. You can discuss it here whether you want to read it, are currently reading it, or have already read it :)

Absolutely brilliant. The writing is amazing, the characters are hilarious. As much as I cried I laughed more.
Just one of those books, as soon as I had finished and put it on my bookshelf I wanted to pick it up and read again. A massive thumbs up from me.

love this book, it made it to my 'favourites' shelf (it's pretty hard to get on there)

I love his writing style and the characters, mm yes 10/10 would recommend

I think i'm the only person that didn't cry at this book :')

I cried so hard :'(

Meh...I don't really like this book.
Dunno what's the fuss is about.

I think you have to have a certain sense of humour for this book because I'd let my friend borrow it, and as much as she liked it, in some places she said she'd found it slow and she hadn't thought it was that funny! I, on the other hand, laughed out loud!!

I agree. I adored this book but when I gave it to my mom to read she didn't find they way they talked appealing.

I want to read this book SO bad! I am going to buy it this week! Did you guys like it?

Loved it!!

Awesome! Thanks! I want to read it before I see the movie... which I will be seeing because I am a huge fan of Shailene!

I saw the trailer and that's what lead me to the book.. can't wait to see it!

Same here! I had heard of the book but didn't think anything of it until I saw the trailer!

Meh. It's not my cup of tea.
I have no taste for these "popular" books, excluding Vampire Academy.

I agree. The hype makes it sound better than it is.

Sorry, TFiOS fans. It was a good concept, but Augustus was a bore and the romance was too cheesy for me. ¯\(°_o)/¯ <--- that is a shrugging emoticon

I appreciate your honesty.:) I personally loved the book but I'm happy that you told the truth instead of just agreeing to make other people happy. We all have our own opinions.

I loved the book. It was really sad but so true to life. It made me cry because I could really understand Hazel and Gus.
