I still think about it often and I read it a few weeks ago. I've recommended it to just about everyone I know too :) And to those that are nervous to read it because its sad, it's so many other things than that. It's very funny and heartwarming as well.

If I could spare them the worry and hurt, I'd do anything. I pretend to be ok for them but I think they see right thru it. I do have periods of 'remission' when I can drive, shop, hang out and do normal things but they don't last very long. I've finally said NO to any more invasive procedures and I manage my disease with just medical and holistic interventions.<br /><br />That's why I think I should read this book, maybe I'll learn something. I am an eternal optimist and I won't let anything get me down.<br /><br />Geez, sorry for the life story but just reading the synopsis and your review just really hit me.<br /><br />Thank you so very much for sharing this, Ginger :o] <3Kristi The Book Faeryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06198548056627373947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-18162633896159225172012-02-27T10:25:51.250-06:002012-02-27T10:25:51.250-06:00I felt the same way as you re: tissues.

He read a chapter to the audience and I just knew TFiOS would be life-changing. <br /><br />I still haven't read it, because my Uncle Jim died of cancer last February and I just don't feel ready, but I think it will be my next read.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

I've heard endless things about TFIOS and how awesome John Green is, so I can't wait to finally pick up one of his novels and begin with this lovely-epic-tearoverload-emotional-inspiring read! *wipes tears* I wan't to read it (oh boy oh boy, do I ever) but I think I need to squeeze in a few more fun reads before this one, since alot of the books I've been reading lately have been sad. But I promise I WILL read this soon. Oh, and lovely, lovely review Ginger!
