The Fault in Our Stars: Quotes

Instead of doing pictures this week, today will be my favorite quotes from The Fault in Our Stars.

Quote 1
“I'm in love with you," he said quietly.
"Augustus," I said.

"I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”

Quote 2

“There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and an infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful.”

Quote 3
“Maybe 'okay' will be our 'always”

Quote 4
“Because you are beautiful. I enjoy looking at beautiful people, and I decided a while ago not to deny myself the simpler pleasures of existence”

Quote 5
“My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations.”

The Fault in Our Stars: Book vs. Movie

Book vs. Movie

I have no hate towards the movie because I actually loved it. I wanted to do something different for this blog like seeing what was added in the movie or was missing. It's like finding easter eggs in the movie. 

1. In the book, Hazel visits Isaac at the hospital but not in the movie.

2. In the movie, Kaitlyn doesn't exist!

3. Gus' family is not mentioned a lot in the movie because in the book they had policies.

4. Caroline Mathers exist in the book but not in the movie.

5. Gus' declining health isn't mentioned a lot until it happens really fast at the end of the movie.

6. Hazel and her mom don't celebrate half birthdays.

7. Hazel doesn't have a sick day in Amsterdam in the movie.

8. Hazel doesn't put up her swing set on sale in the movie.

9. The way Gus tells Hazel he loves her in the movie and book are different.

10. Hazel searches for her letter in the book which was sent to her favorite author but in the movie, it was in Gus' car. 

The Fault in Our Stars: Review

The Fault in Our Stars Review

Rating: 5 stars

Review: 

I really loved this book when I first read it. It was really popular when it came out and I remember all of my friends reading it which made me read it. I really loved the story and the characters. I was connected to the characters and wasn't bored or annoyed with them. I really love the main character's romance and how it was a slow-moving relationship. The story flowed and had small details that most books don't have which I loved. The author mentioned a lot of background detail for the readers to connect with the characters and story. It was like a movie playing in my head. The author wrote this book well and didn't disappoint me at all. This was a unique story that is recommended to all.
