I can say, that I liked
the book, it´s based on a good story. I liked the writing style of
the author, even if for my opinion some scenes are to much written in
detail. I also agree with the opinion, that Hazel and Augustus
sometimes don´t act like “really” teenagers would act. Another
point I don´t liked was that the book “An Imperial Affliction”
was mention to often, I thought. Their were like two story’s: the
story from Hazel and Augustus and the story from the novel AIA.
I think that Green really
did well mixing love story, cancer story and funny aspects. The most
of the time, I really can understand, what Hazel feels, even I would
act in some situations different.
I think also the size of
the book was good, it was definitely not to short and maybe in some
points a little bit to long, but it was fine for reading.
In the book was a lot of
quoting and I´m not pretty sure, what I should feel about it. On the
one hand, I really like the quotes and thought that they very very
cute, but on the other Hand, it was kind of unrealistic, that someone
quotes all the time and in some scenes it was very irritating.
When I have to give the
book a star ranking, that I probably would give 3.5 stars from 5.
I´m now very interested
in the movie and I am pretty sure, that it would make me cry, but
that evenly did the book.
For the once haven´t seen
the trailer yet, here it is:
