Augustus makes an impact on Hazel’s life. Augustus and Hazel meet at Support Group and grow a close bond. Augustus and Hazel fall deeply in love throughout the story. When Augustus’ cancer sprung up again, he asked Hazel to write him an eulogy. In Hazel’s eulogy she says, “My name is Hazel. Augustus Waters was the great star-crossed love of my life. Ours was an epic love story, and I won’t be able to get more than a sentence into it without disappearing into a puddle of tears”(Green 259). This shows that when Augustus dies he will leave a (mental) scar on Hazel, because Hazel will deeply miss Augustus when he dies. Augustus transformed Hazel

Hazel grace is a dynamic character because she changes throughout the story. In the beginning, Hazel doesn’t want to get close to Augustus, because she was afraid he is going to be shattered when she dies. But towards the ending, hazel finds out it doesn’t matter if you die in the middle of a relationship, it’s about the moments you spend together. A quote in the book, on page 214, “Only now that I loved a grenade did I understand the foolishness of trying to save others from my own impending fragmentation: I couldn’t unlove Augustus Waters. And I didn’t want to.”

There are many similarities and differences between the book and the movie. I personally enjoyed the book more because I felt that it was a more detailed story. In the movie many things were left out simply because you cant fit everything that was in the book into a 125 minute movie. In the movie, Augustus’ parents don’t say anything when they go down to the basement.

Augustus realizes that a lot of people let their cancer identify them, which it seems at first like Hazel does. Through the novel Augustus mentions multiple times how he wants his life to mean something other than cancer. “I fear that I won’t be able to give anything in exchange for my life. If you don’t live a life in service of a greater good, you’ve gotta

Introduction: How Did He Do That? When reading a literary work, in order to fully gain the experience from it, authors will deploy tools such as memory, symbolism, and patterns. Readers use their memory by connecting situations and characters to previous works or people/experiences in their own lives, making it easier to put stories into perspective. Symbolic references take the prose, or poem, into a deeper level- more emotional- making it more interesting. Conditioned readers may use pattern recognition to go beyond the plot, characters, and drama to get a more rewarding effect from the literature.

However, Hazel describes her self as a “ticking bomb” ( ). Eventually, Hazel will explode like a bomb, or die, and leave Augustus hurt. Unlike Augustus, who believes his life can only get better, Hazel believes her life will only get worse as time continues on. Together, Hazel and Augustus put aside there indifferent beliefs about the future of their lives with cancer to help each other overcome issues they

Having a family to rely on and be supported by is said to be the most important thing to have in life. No matter where you go, you should have loving family members who will support and help you without question, if they are ever needed to. In the novel, The Fault in our Stars, the theme of having loved ones and being close to family members is heavily leaned on through the actions of illnesses and loss. The novel shows the theme through the actions of Hazel, Augustus, and their parents. As expected, each character has their own style of expressing their emotions, feelings, and thoughts in their dark times.

For the second of quarter, I decided to read the novel The Fault in Our Stars. The novel is three hundred and thirteen pages long and the author the book is named John Green. This particular novel falls under the genre of young adult fiction. My motive to read this book is because I had already previously viewed the movie. I really enjoyed watching the movie, so I thought it would be a great book to read. Another reason I wanted to read The fault in Our Stars is because of the author, John Green.

The Fault in Our Stars was a book with an amazing plot and characters. The characters were easy to relate to and love. The love story simply was fantastic; I really enjoyed following the adventures of Hazel and Gus!

At first, Hazel and Gus were merely acquaintances. In the first chapter, where they meet, Hazel is only mildly interested in Augustus’ “metaphoric resonances”. When he puts a cigarette into his mouth, Hazel is thoroughly disgusted and she feels that “there is always a harmatia”, which shows that she is repulsed by his behaviour upon their first meeting. As the plot develops, they become much closer friends, as seen from Augustus regularly inviting her to his house and finding common interests in her book, talking about the book and often quoting from the book in their conversations, for instance: ‘Augustus nodded at

The two main places that involve the two main characters, Hazel and Gus, were Amsterdam and Indianapolis. Hazel was scared that she will one day hurt the ones who love her when she would one day die from her lung cancer.

They had many safe times such as when they were at the Support Group and Amsterdam because there were no health related emergencies and they had a good time together.
