Before I read the book The Fault In Our Stars, I had heard so much about it; All the great parts of the story, the sad parts, what happens in the end, and how amazing the book was and that I needed to read it. Therefore, I set my expectations pretty high. Well, reading the book made me realize that it was nothing like I had imagined it to be like. Still a great book, but much more different.

     As the book may have been very typical like something in reality, the characters were unique and very much refined over the course of the book. As the story went on, the main characters, Hazel and Augustus became more known to the reader. The reader could come to see the characters as if they had to come to life. Each character had been crafted differently in a specific way that each person reacts differently to different situations to create interest and a plot for the book.

     When the different characters interact with each other throughout the book, mainly Hazel and Augustus, they end up have an effect on one another. By the end of the novel, Hazel has become a dynamic character and it becomes easier to see that because the book is through her perspective on life. Even though there isn't a closing/concluding statement that makes it obvious, it is easy to assume. As the story continues, Hazel, who at the beginning of the book was depressed, and constantly thought about cancer, starts to think less and less of it the more she talks to Gus, and explores things. Therefore by the end of the book, Hazel could be considered a dynamic character. It helps to show that there is much more in life, and your days are numbered, therefore you should make the best of it. Hazel helped to show this because she learned the same lesson. In books, when characters are specifically described, or they change by the end of the book, it can greatly help to develop the theme/plot trying to be expressed.
