Tada! Talk about The fault in out stars but try not to spoil things.

Augustus is(view spoiler)[totally not (hide spoiler)] alive.

Uh... Duh?

Everyone I know has read this book and the keep telling me I should give it a try - but it doesn't have the kind of premise that usually interests me.

What do you think? Should I read it or just watch the film?

My policy is to never watch a book-to-movie adaptation without first having read the book.

....I watched the Harry Potter films. Never touched the books. Although, in my defense I never really wanted to watch any of them in the first place. Heh.

The movie and book for TFiOS are essentially identical, aside from one fairly major point involving August's ex. She ends up largely contributing to Hazel's attitude towards her and August's relationship.

^ Mmmkay. Might just go ahead and read the book.

My mom said shes gonna read the fault in our stars before i do -_-

You probably won't be able to read it then. :(

Yea i know......

Ive heard things......

Something i just reliezed, the girl and the boy characters played in the movie off this book are in divergent as sibling and tris and peter r also in a diff movie together also in love now they worst enemies.....

Funny.....

Tris and Peter aren't siblings.

It's spelled "realized"

Sibling should be plural

It's they're, not they

You should've put a colon after 'reliezed', not a comma

And for god's sake, don't use the word "also" so much in one run-on sentence.

I meant tris and caleb

Gabbu, you just couldn't resist, could you?

And gosh i hate grammar

Also, an ellipses consists of only 3 periods, unless it is the end of the sentence (in which case, you'd use 4).

Gabbu......

Oh my glob u like to be accurate

But caleb tris and peter are in diff movies togeth in love and are now all in divergent

Its weirdness...

I'm usually really good about not correcting a stranger's grammar, but I've seen way too much of it for one day.

I was waiting for Gabbu to scream at me about my eclipses being to long. I guess she's given up on me.

AN ECLIPSE IS A SHADOW OVER THE SUN OR MOON.

Haha. You haven't given up.

Wow its good to know my grammar makes peeps mad ._.

It's not you. It's mostly Lily. And I've had a long and stressful day, and I'm going to have another one next Saturday.

Why? What happened?

Nutcracker auditions

Ah. Is next Saturday the outfit fittings or whatever?

No. I might be a general or a 4 star general this year, but they have to do reauditions to make a definite decision

Oh. Practice your poker face!

Poker faces yay!!! Wow lily way to stress people put -_- ill see u tuesday...... Maybe........

I dont care if i put to many dots or elipse thingeys!!!

The poker face was a inside joke. And yeah, you'll see me Tuesday.

It's okay, Athen :D

I'm not as stressed out now

Good. Stressed out Gabbu is no fun for anyone.

True so trye

This book equal a mixture of the following:
Me yelling at the author to hive me back Augustus waters.


Me yelling at the author to hive me back Augustus waters, while sobbing uncontrollably.

Me yelling at the author to hive me back Augustus waters, while sobbing uncontrollably, while chucking the book across the room then realizing I just threw a book and sob some more. Yup.

NOT FUNNY!

I just Watched TFiOS today. Glad I finally got it on DVD. But, of course, the book was better. BEST BOOK EVER.

Agreed!
