So hi. This is about..
THE FAULT IN OUR STARS.
I'm sure lots of people have already seen it, just as I'm sure no one actually read the book.
*coughKaticaRaecoughCOUGH*
Well that's unfortunate, because the book is a roller coaster that only goes up, my friend. I mean, besides the part where you're lying on the floor screaming and sobbing. But we can forget about that part, because no one needs to know about that stain on the carpet that smells like pee.
Anyway.
I really liked the movie. It followed the book really well. You can even quote as they say their lines! But I wouldn't recommend doing that because for some reason it really annoys people. SORRY FOR BEING A SUPER FAN. Also, I really liked the sound track, though I don't remember hearing that Ed Sheeran song. That's how you spell his name right?
So I'm going to talk about the parts they left out in the movie that was in the book. If you haven't seen/read The Fault in Our Stars, maybe you shouldn't read this because it has a few spoilers. Okay? Okay.
• This was in the trailer, but they didn't include it in the movie. I'm speaking of the "We're a hot mess" quote. YES. I KNOW. HOW DARE THEY.
• You know in the end of the book, when that squirrel dies? And that other squirrel puts a pack of smoking nuts on it's casket? And says you can eat them if you want, I wouldn't mind? Well they left that out, which I thought was a very important part, but apparently not.
• The fight that Augustus has with his mom before going to Amsterdam. Not a scene.
• Peter Van Houten is not fat. No, he's a skinny little cow.
• The part where Augustus wants to go down to the basement with Hazel but his parents don't want him to. For some reason, I really liked this part, so I was a bit annoyed.
• Sort of a small thing, but it took Isaac WAYYYYY longer to hit his ex-girlfriend's car with the eggs.
• Kaitlyn isn't even a character in the movie, and the mall scene is none existent. That was okay with me since that part in the book was sort of boring.
• Another non-existent character is Caroline, and the whole thing where Hazel totally stalks her FaceBook.
• The part where when Augustus gives Hazel The Price of Dawn and on the inside is his phone number, and then the "And you say we don't know each other" after the "I strongly suspect you wrote it on the cover" after the "You haven't asked for my phone number yet." I liked that part so I was sort of sad about that.
• I noticed that Hazel wasn't nearly as guarded towards Augustus's feelings in the movie as in the book.
• The Swingset! Where they sell it on Ebay and are all like "Lonely, vaguely pedophilic swing set seeks the butts of children." Totally left that out.
• OH. And the part where Hazel goes over and finds that Augustus peed his pants in his sleep. I always thought that part showed Augustus's vulnerability.
So I'm sure there's more, but those are all pretty much off the top of my head. Tell me what you thought about the movie! And also, what you thought about The Maze Runner trailer omgomgomg. And if you are planning to see The Fault in Our Stars movie, bring tissues or else you'll have to steal some when the girl in front of you isn't looking. Don't do that. It's risky.

They're hating on TFIOS, I suppose. Plus there is always that one person who expresses their feelings for me through downvoting. It actually makes me laugh because it's literally always there.

Go on the browser and go to the site epubuds.com. You can download books for free. But make sure it has all the pages. Sometimes you come across previews.
I LOVED the rest of the Maze Runner series. The Scorch Trials is my favorite, but I liked The Kill Order too even though it was really sad. The Death Cure was good. "The Time For Lies Is Over" gives me chills everytime. Oh, and I have a major crush on Thomas lol.
