  1. The fault in our stars By John Green Publisher: The Penguin Group Power point By: Carley Waggoner Published: 2012

  2. The fault in our stars The two main characters of this novel are Hazel Grace, a cancer fighting teen, and Augustus Waters who is currently NEC. (NEC – no evidence of cancer.) The setting of this story primarily takes place in Amsterdam, the home of Hazel’s and now Augustus’ favorite author, Peter Van Houten; Author of Imperial Affliction, a book which ends mid-sentence.

  3. THE FAULT in our stars In the beginning of this novel, Hazel Grace attends a cancer support group meeting. There, she meets Augutus Waters, a very handsome teenage boy who had cancer but eventually fought it. In the canccrsupport meeting, the attendees start talking to one another and when Augustus is asked what he is afraid of he answered, oblivion. Hazel’s response and stated thoughts silenced Augustus but also made him admire even more than he did when he first laid eyes on her.

  4. The fault in our stars Some of Hazel’s response to Augustus: “There will come a time when all of us are dead … No human beings remaining will ever remember that anyone ever existed or that our species ever did anything. … And if the human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it. God knows that’s what everyone else does.”

  5. The fault in our stars The Protagonist – The protagonist of this story is primarily Gus although Hazel could be considered a protagonist also. With that being said, Gus is the protagonist because although he knows Hazel has cancer and that his cancer could possibly come back, he doesn’t let it hold him back. He always looks at the best in things and not the worst.

  6. The fault in our stars The Antagonist – The antagonist of this story is Cancer and Peter Van Houten. Cancer is an antagonist because it has damaged many people in this story. Whether they actually have the cancer or not. Cancer not only affects the cancer victim, but also their loved ones as well. Peter Van Houtenis an antagonist because when asked for an ending by Hazel and Gus, he blows up in their face and also allows alcohol to control him and ruin his relationships with the only people that cared for him.

  7. The fault in our stars Conflict occurs in this novel when Hazel and Gus go visit their favorite author in Amsterdam, Netherlands for a conclusion to the novel that ends mid-sentence. Upon arriving, they realize the author, Peter Van Houten, is an alcoholic who cannot control his anger. After stating their thoughts, Hazel and Gus leave to go sightsee Amsterdam with Van Houten’s assistant while he sits and realizes what he’s done to himself.

  8. The fault in our stars MINOR CHARACTERS Issac – Hazel and Gus’ friend who is always there for them in time of need. LidewijVliegenthart – Van Houten’s assistant who helps the teenagers in getting to Amsterdam and introducing them to Van Houten.

  9. The fault in our stars “One doesn’t like to throw around phrases like “instant classic” lightly, but I can see The Fault in Our Stars taking its place alongside Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret …” - Time “Green shows us true love…and it is far more romantic than any sunset on the beach.” -New York Times Book Review

  10. The fault in our stars Personally, this book is one of the best books I’ve ever read. Not only did I cry multiple times, but it also made me laugh. This book is a book where you can read it over multiple times and never get tired of it. John Green is a fantastic writer and I am a big fan.
