Winner of the 2013 Odyssey Award for Excellence in Audiobook Production Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazels story is about to be completely rewritten. Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning-author John Greens most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love. Praise for The Fault In Our Stars A novel of life and death and the people caught in between, The Fault in Our Stars is John Green at his best. You laugh, you cry, and then you come back for more. Markus Zusak, bestselling and Printz Honorwinning author of The Book Thief An electric portrait of young people who learn to live life with one foot in the grave. Filled with staccato bursts of humor and tragedy, The Fault in Our Stars takes a spin on universal themes Will I be loved? Will I be remembered? Will I leave a mark on this world? by dramatically raising the stakes for the characters who are asking. Jodi Picoult, bestselling author of My Sisters Keeper and Sing You Home John Green writes incredible, honest truths about the secret, weird hearts of human beings. He makes me laugh and gasp at the beauty of a sentence or the twist of a tale. He is one of the best writers alive and I am seething with envy of his talent. E. Lockhart, National Book Award Finalist and Printz Honorwinning author of The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks and The Boyfriend List

Hazel ha sedici anni, ma ha gia alle spalle un vero miracolo: grazie a un farmaco sperimentale, la malattia che anni prima le hanno diagnosticato e ora in regressione. Ha pero anche imparato che i miracoli si pagano: mentre lei rimbalzava tra corse in ospedale e lunghe degenze, il mondo correva veloce, lasciandola indietro, sola e fuori sincrono rispetto alle sue coetanee, con una vita in frantumi in cui i pezzi non si incastrano piu.Un giorno pero il destino le fa incontrare Augustus, affascinante compagno di sventure che la travolge con la sua fame di vita, di passioni, di risate, e le dimostra che il mondo non si e fermato, insieme possono riacciuffarlo. Ma come un peccato originale, come una colpa scritta nelle stelle avverse sotto cui Hazel e Augustus sono nati, il tempo che hanno a disposizione e un miracolo, e in quanto tale andra pagato.

From the New York Times bestselling author, Paper Towns is soon to be a major motion picture (summer 2015) starring The Fault in our Stars sensation Nat Wolff and Cara Delevingne. Quentin Jacobsen has always loved Margo Roth Spiegelman, for Margo (and her adventures) are the stuff of legend at their high school. So when she one day climbs through his window and summons him on an all-night road trip of revenge he cannot help but follow. But the next day Margo doesn't come to school and a week later she is still missing. Q soon learns that there are clues in her disappearance ...and they are for him. But as he gets deeper into the mystery - culminating in another awesome road trip across America - he becomes less sure of who and what he is looking for. Masterfully written by John Green, this is a thoughtful, insightful and hilarious coming-of-age story. Paper Towns the film will be released in 2015.
