I read the Fault in Our Stars in March, and it's by far one of the best books I've ever read.

I think one of the main reasons is because I totally connected with Hazel Grace, more then I do with most other characters in books.

I don't have cancer, but I do understand lots of other things she thinks.

The thing about how she is totally and completely adamant she's not depressed? I did the same thing, untill eventually my parents forced me to go to counselling.

I can't really explain it, but I feel like although physically Hazel Grace and I are very different, mentally we are similar.

Did anyone else feel this connection to Hazel Grace? Or have you ever felt this connection to a different character, perhaps from a different book?

Stay Dauntless,
