With the movie hitting theaters I’m sure everyone and their mother has been falling in love with John Green and his intelligently sensitive characters in “The Fault in Our Stars.”  I haven’t seen the movie yet but The International Bad Bitches Book Club (myself & a few amazing women who travel, live internationally, & love to, get this, READ BOOKS!) chose this as a read recently & the book put me through every emotion; I laughed, I cried, I got angry, I felt compassion, & I fell in love with the frailty of the human body & the strength of the human spirit.  And no, it’s not a “chick-lit” book for girls nor is it a “teen read,” this book really is for any one and every one who has ever believed in love & perseverance.

Here are a few of my favorite quotes (& god were there a lot!) from the book.  I suggest you go out & buy a copy to read immediately.  And don’t forget a pack of tissues.
