Agreed. I always feel the same too when my favorite characters die...I just can't help it.

I think there's a difference between thinking and feeling. I can think it totally makes sense, and yet it might feel off.
This book was so good! It was the first book that I ever cried reading and the ending was amazing in my opinion.
i regret watching the films before jumping to reading thoroughly this remarkable book since i didn't have chance to feel tremble when i do know that Augustus would gone. However, my fierce sensibility when it comes to reading is even more massive in comparison with the first time watching it, the proof that i cried buckets. The story is ordinary if its not from John Green but we are lucky to have this hauntingly beautiful book to cry and feel, not the same situation with the two main characters, what is really love. The more I admire the inspiration from Gus when he didn't let cancer or any unpleasant things ruin his life and people he loves, the more I love the way he take Hazel from her safe zone to enjoy a whole new bright life she deserve to live. I appreciate Hazel because she's been herself and i can't blame her for her fear for opening her heart to anyone else except family or concern thoughts for people she loves after her death. I think she is the most realistic of this novel, and i feel her because i can't lie that sometimes when I'm sorrowed or aggressive, i always want to keep myself from people I love since I easily hurt them with my feelings and words. I admire their love story though they are in common at first, they changed gradually for each other, especially Hazel and I'm in love with every single conversation between them because it sounds philosophy as well as hilarious. Reading this meaningful novel let me realize that how lucky I am and if you are got to live in the way you hate remember that you're the one who determine what's your view of life to live (bloom it or end it), I guess that the inspirational message John Green want to send us through this book. The world is still not a wish-granting factory, I just want to recommend it with wanders in this site, this book worth your time.
Not at the end end, but at Gus' funeral. I was super sad and emotional. The end took a sharp turn. At the beginning, I thought it would be Hazel who would die at the end of the book, but it was Augustus. A sharp turn at the end, but a very good book.
I read this in one sitting. I really liked this book and it was depressing. I saw the movie first, wish I would have read the book first, but the book is really good. I want to reread this book. I just had two surgeries to get rid of my cancer. I am now cancer free; I think I would be more sentimental if I did a reread. I know now what it is to have cancer.

I absolutely love this book. I'm obsessed with it. But, Omy Lord I cried so hard. I just sobbed for most of the book. I was definitely super depressed after reading it. But if anyone asks I would HIGHLY recommend this and give it a 10/10.
I finished reading this book two years ago and I was crying, especially in the end of this novel, when Gus passed away. I thought that it would be Hazel, the one who would pass away, but it was not. It is kinda plot twist for me. In addition, I have an interest in cancer survivor's story, because the time I read the book, my grand mother was also struggling to fight Cervix cancer, stadium 4. Gus passed away, my grand mother either. However, the memories and love will stay forever. I will always love her, like what Hazel does to Gus.
I was crying and screaming, the end was really sad
i read this book in one sitting and enjoyed it, but wasn’t upset. i knew from the beginning someone was going to die, and the whole way it was written didn’t give me hope for either one to live. i also didn’t like Gus’s character (don’t hate me) he sort of pushed hazel to like him back after she repeatedly told him she wanted to remain friends. he just wasn’t charming to me, and of course i didn’t want him to die, but i wasn’t heartbroken when he did. i usually compare this to titanic because they’re both considered heartbreaking films. from the start you fall in love with rose and jack because of their chemistry and characters altogether. and although we all knew someone would probably die, I still had hope. i am not a fan of the ‘medical tropes’ because they’re utterly predictable.
Umm... no. It was definitely sad I guess...Don't kill me, but Augustus Waters was... kind of an idiot... just... why..?
Am I the only one who thinks this book is way too hyped?Because I did not find this book that much interesting.
Of course, I was sad when I finished the book. It has a lot of emotional element in it. But TBH, I did not enjoy the writing style. I found it too casual and "teen" appropriate. Did you get what I mean?. I mean so many slangs.
I did not find it romantic at all. It was depressing instead.
Realmente no lloré con este libro pero la película me partió el corazón. Quizá es porque la ví antes de leer la novela, y no tuvo el mismo impacto.

The story felt personal...."definitely not ridiculous and I am the one to not hide it as my family loves to read , i would mope around all day and cry at random times because of a sad ending or a character dying - perks of a good book
Like my eyes got Kind of wet..when..."he lit up like a christmas tree"
The first time I saw the movie I was just a little girl. I didn't cry, a was just "sad". After 5 years I decided to read the book and I couldn't stop crying. The day after, I watched the movie again, and I felt something break and I suspect it was my heart...apparently I am more emotional than I was 5 years ago. And as a Sheerio, the final song, All of the Stars, delivered the knockout blow.
OMG Yes! I cried on and off throughout the entire book. It was so incredibly sad.
To be honest, I am not a huge fan of John Green. And I do think that this book was a little overrated. The story flows too fast and we there's not enough time for a strong bond to form between the characters and for us to really connect with them. But I must say that I really enjoyed Gus as a character and the story, on the whole, was okayish.
Honestly overall I am not the biggest fan of John Green. I had never liked his books but this one just hit different. it gave me a MASIVE book-hangover and I felt empty for days.
I hardly ever cry for non-fantasy characters, but this seems to be the exception. Big side effect to reading this book :You are extremely paranoid about developing terminal diseases..What broke me was how Hazel slipped the cigarettes into his casket, and the eulogies were...No Words May Describe how they make you feel.
I cried ! I read this book years ago and really enjoyed it. I don’t remember feeling depressed after I finished reading it though. You should read A Walk to Remember! I like ugly cried when I read that book! LOL

Literally every single person that has read this book should have cried at one point or another.and if they didn't, they are not human.
I cried as their love was special and rare. They had a mutual understanding of what each other were going through and Augustus made Hazel think differently of her illness and her life (the cigarette) which I think helped their love blossom. So at the end of that I was super depressed and did cry.
i loved this book, but at the end it was so sad. although i didn't cry it was heart-breaking. i think it has become one of my comfort books, it's amazing.
I thought I was gonna die the whole book. XD
One of the saddest books I've ever read, I was so upset at the end, almost had me crying!
I sobbed all the way from the gas station scene to the end of the book and then for hours after :)
The book was really nice but, it definitely didn't make me cry it was sad though.
I surely was depressed when I read the book. I honestly really like the book. I am still wondering what happened to hazel did she die shortly after her him, or did she have a longer life than they would have expected. still the death of Augustus made very depressed. I felt just like she did the sadness and sorrow.
I read this book when I was in highschool (grade 9) and I am in the 3rd year of my degree and I still remember how emotionally scarred I was from this book. Seriously it is so beautifully sad and I will forever love it but damn did I ball my eyes out .. for an unnaturally long period of time.
I also felt like I could feel their love when I read it that it made it ten times worse when he died because i just imagined the intense hurt she was experiencing.
Emotional damage for 2 weeks after finishing the book :(
i was sooooooooooo depressed when I finished this one. also, the part where she says she saved her 10 for such a moment ughhhhh!!!!!!
Ok. I cried, and cried, and cried I cried, and cried, and cried.. all day long! Its soooooo sad….
I just finished this book the other day and it was very sad, particularly as a Mom, but I felt ok with how it ended.

bro I never cry because of books but this was so sad it felt so personal and like I knew him.

Sono anni che ho letto questo libro, ma ancora non riesco a riprendermi, cioè, io ci passo davanti, e sento tutte le mie emozioni tristi che vogliono uscire.
I was in my room when i read that he died and I just started crying so hard and I usually don't cry over books but this one scarred me for life

Agreed
Agreed
me encanto, pero realmente el final fue muy triste llore mucho
Frankly speaking I cried Till date how many times I re read the book still my heart ache with sadness
Hazel and gus should get a bigger infinite
This book really touched my heart. I felt a sense of inevitability reading this. I was expecting someone to pass away but the plot twists involving Gus caught me off guard. It was impossible to look up from the pages. I’m a fan of John Green’s books. Then I saw the movie and cried even more. It was so beautiful to see the words I read reenacted onto the screen. This sort of novel is really powerful and definitely inspired me to explore other perspectives in literature.
Guess who found a new favorite book....MEEEE!!! I loved this and sobbed at the end!
