"The Fault in Our Stars [sv. titel: Förr eller senare exploderar jag] is a love story, one of the most genuine and moving ones in recent American fiction, but it?s also an existential tragedy of tremendous intelligence and courage and sadness." Lev Grossman, TIME Magazine, om TIME Magazine?s #1 Fiction book of the yearHazel är 17 år och kommer aldrig att bli frisk igen. Det har hon vetat sedan dagen då hon fick sin cancerdiagnos för tre år sedan. Hazels mamma är orolig för att Hazel ska missbruka Americas Next Top Model och bli allt mer isolerad hemma vid teven. Depression är ju en vanlig bieffekt till cancer har hon läst (Hazel menar att det inte är cancern som gör henne deppig - det är vetskapen om att hon ska dö). Lösningen blir att anmäla Hazel till kyrkans stödgrupp för unga med cancer. Men mötena visar sig vara allt annat än uppiggande och följer ungefär samma mönster som ett AA-möte. Men en eftermiddag i den där stödgruppen förändras livet. Augustus Waters, friskförklarad från sin cancer, dyker upp. Hazel möter Augustus Waters blick och deras kärlekshistoria ska komma att bli en sådan som poeterna diktar om. E p i s k. Det här är en berättelse om cancer, visst, men det är framförallt en förkrossande vacker och gripande historia om livet, Hazel Grace och Gus. Om att vara ung och ändå stå med ena foten i graven. Om att tro att man aldrig mer kommer att bli glatt överraskade. Om att få sin sista önskan uppfylld. Att få beröras på så många sätt, skratta, komma till insikter och gråta, är litteratur när den är som allra bäst." Jag älskade den här boken. Älskade! Det här kan vara en av de bästa böckerna jag någonsin läst, faktiskt. Författaren Lisa Bjärbo, bloggen Onekligen "Här finns ingen sentimentalitet. Här finns livet och döden som en självklarhet i (o)ändligheten. Förr eller senare exploderar jag är en av de absolut bästa ungdomsböcker jag har läst!" Christina Wedenmark, Bibliotekstjänst häfte 13102.

I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once. Despite the tumour-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis.
