The Fault in Our Stars

I kind of read this to punish myself, since I've been all snobby and bored about everything I've tried to read recently and I knew the subject matter here would make me feel at least a little something in my cold, dead heart. And it did. But in the end, I can't help but think the book has been a bit overrated because of the heart-breaking subject matter. Beyond that, there is a little something to this book, a message, a metamorphosis, but it didn't feel as big and mind-blowing for me as I was expecting from all the five-star reviews. That said, it's a good book, it's very well written, and if you really feel like having a good cry to ensure that you haven't turned into a complete robot, it certainly fits the bill.
