6/10 -
I don't think it's terrible, I just think it fails to capture the magic of the book. The 2 main characters (Hazel and Gus) seemed 2-dimensional and not as raw'n'rull as their book forms. Idk. It's supposed to be a tragic love story and it felt more like a romcom to me, which would be fine if it was funny and still worked with the overall theme but it never really made me laugh. I also feel like the book was trying to appeal to the tumblr/twitter-fanbase which made moments like kissing in Anne Frank's house feel less emotive and more nauseating saccharine.
