"Use your credit NOW!"
Kate Rudd did an amazing job! She was Hazel Grace!
Wow...one of those books that stays with you, and stays with you! Very moving and funny! Wish I'd been that smart when I was a teenager!!! I really didn't want to cry, and yet I just couldn't get enough of the characters. I think John Green captured the emotions of them all! Excellent read! Thank you, John and your cast of wonderful people!
"Great Read!!"
This was a very powerful story that I just couldn't turn off!! It was impossible not to love these characters.
The story is written in such a way that makes the characters feel so real. You find yourself wanting the most for them right from the beginning.
Kate Rudd has a wonderful voice that is very pleasant to listen to, but never detracts from the story.
This is one of those stories that stays with you long after you have finished the book.
"Excellent narration!"
Don't skip this one based solely on the subject matter. Funny, honest story with relatable, likeable, and interesting characters.
"Kate Rudd lends emotional depth to a touching work"
Characters wit an humor in the face of terrifying illness.
Reminds me a little of Harold and Maude: two people showing one another how to live.
First listen, but it won't be the last! She is wonderful.
When a beloved character is turned into another, unrecognizable person by cancer.
It may be a YA novel, but its themes are universal.
"Enjoyed this book!"
entertaining and interesting read. we all have been touched with someone in our family or friends that has had cancer. so this story strikes home. good book!
"Just superb!"
I don't usually read books that are recommended, but this time I did, and I'm so glad I did.
On the same level as The Help. One of those special books you never forget.
"Time Well Spent"
I will not spend a credit on a book that costs less than my purchased credit. So when buying a book in which I pay for it, I am particularly choosy. This was money well spent and time will spent.
Although I found some of the teen conversations a little too mature for the average teen, there is no doubt that this books deals with a not-so-teen subject matter. The struggles presented in this book are ageless and well written. Do not let the fact that it is YA deter you from listening. I would (and have) recommend this book to others.
"What a great listen"
Really enjoyed this book. A great listen and one of the best books I've had for a while. Well written and well narrated and does not overdo it and go on too long.

"Can't believe I resisted"
Beautiful, funny, heart-wrenching
Captures the voice perfectly. Listen seamlessly to the story and forget it's being read to you.
You expect the sad moments, then they catch you buy surprise.
I was nagged by my teen daughter to read this. She tried to explain it was a YA novel about love and death, I though 'ugh'. I eventually gave it a try and fell in love... and had my heartbroken... and was so happy to have had the chance to get my heartbroken.
"Very good"
I have already! It's unlike any book I have read, it's hilarious but the sadness in it is inevitable.
When Hazel meets Gus!
Hazel for sure. She seems so real and she is hilarious.
Make your mark on the world, no matter how small.
I usually read paranormal books, so I don't know why I bought this one. Probably all the rave reviews. It is definitely one of my very favorites from Audible. I listen to them while I'm at work and I had trouble keeping back tears at some parts! That being said, it's an amazing and touching story. I will listen to it again soon.
