I haven’t seen the movie since I saw it in theaters, and I never reread the book, either. I was crying to the point that I was holding my breath in an attempt to stop bawling so much. There are many, many, many movies that have made me cry.
Not only contributing, but crying so hard that I had to gasp for air between sobs. I knew that I was about to hear an onslaught of crying.
When we went to the theater, there was a group of six girls my age in the row behind us. And little did I know this movie would spark my love of Ansel Elgort, who is not only a good actor but also has a music career not many people know about (you should totally check out “ Supernova“).
I knew my mom wasn’t going to read the book, but I figured I could drag her to the movies with me to see it. So, naturally, I was excited for the movie to come out. I let my friends borrow my copy just so they could join in on the awesomeness that is The Fault in Our Stars. I loved the book so much that I did an art project for class involving the iconic speech bubbles that say “Okay.” and I memorized the quote about the bigger and smaller infinities of infinite numbers between numbers. I ran into my dad’s office down the hall and cried to him about a fictional boy he knew nothing about but I’ll be damned if he didn’t handle my hysterical crying well. Things weren’t going well for Augustus but I knew he was the main love interest so he was safe! No author would ever kill a character that essential, right? Right? The next thing I knew, Augustus was dead and I burst into tears. I was sitting on my bed reading it, feeling totally fine. The Fault in Our Stars was the first book that ever made me cry. Anyways, yes, here is your OFFICIAL SPOILER WARNING. I also met John Green when I was a sophomore at NerdCon, so that was like, really well-timed (and also an awesome convention and experience all around)!īefore I continue, there will be spoilers for both the book and the movie in this post, though to be fair it’s the same spoiler? Since the movie follows the book pretty decently? Not perfectly of course, but not a bad adaptation in my opinion. I read it during my freshman year of high school, and the movie came out when I was a sophomore. Like most teen girls in the 2010s, I was enamored with The Fault in Our Stars, by John Green.
