“This novel is by far [Green’s] most difficult to read. It’s
also his most astonishing. . . . So surprising and
moving and true that I became completely unstrung. . . . One

human.”—The New York Times

intelligence and courage and sadness.” —Lev
Grossman, TIME Magazine
“This is a book that breaks your heart—not by wearing it down, but
by making it bigger until it bursts.” —The Atlantic

“John Green deftly mixes the profound and the quotidian in this
tough, touching valentine to the human spirit.” —The
Washington Post
“[Green] shows us true love—two teenagers helping and accepting
each other through the most humiliating physical and emotional
ordeals—and it is far more romantic than any sunset on the
beach.” —New York Times Book Review
