The Fault in Our Stars

by John Green

Two teenagers meet in a cancer support group and forge a connection that transcends their terminal diagnoses, finding humor and meaning in the shadow of mortality. Green writes about love and loss with unflinching honesty and surprising lightness, never romanticizing illness but honoring the fullness of life lived under its threat. A modern classic about living while dying.
