Rising Action The rising action of “The Fault In Our Stars” is when Hazel Grace met Augustus Waters at the Support group. One day Hazel the two met up at Augustus’ house and Hazel told Augustus to read, ” An Imperial Affliction”, and Augustus told Hazel to read a book called, ” The Price of Dawn” and they continuously met with one another. As they got to know more and more about each other, Hazel has been more happier ever since the two had met. In the book, Augustus sent an email to Hazel’s favorite author explaining why Peter Van Houten should write a sequel to , ”An Imperial Affliction”. Then Hazel emailed Peter Van Houten to say sorry about Augustus emailing him saying that she was a part of it without her permission. Hazel emailed and emailed Van Houten before but…Peter Van Houten never responded, but ever since Augustus was able to email Peter Van Houten, the author responded, and Augustus and Hazel got a trip to Amsterdam so Hazel can finally ask Peter Van Houten the questions that she has been longing to ask him.

Climax The more dramatic events from the story is when Augustus and Hazel arrive to Amsterdam. When they arrived, Augustus and Hazel were going to go out for dinner which was set up by Lidewij Peter Van Houtens assistant. During the dinner, Augustus confessed his love to Hazel Grace, making her cry in happiness after a speech he has given to her about his love. Then Augustus and Hazel went to Peter Van Houtens place and Hazel asked him some questions, but Peter was very rude and mean and as he talked to Hazel and Augustus he drank achohol. Hazel got mad and then she left with Augustus. Then Lidewij had followed and apologized and they went to the Anne Frank Huis. That was where Hazel and Augustus had their first kiss with each other. Lastly, Augustus had told Hazel he got a PET scan and that his cancer came back, which was devastating for Hazel.

Falling Action Now that Augustus’ cancer had made a come back, he became unbearably weak and had to stay in a wheel chair. Hazel did her best to take care of him while he was still alive and take the chances to be with him before he passes away. Once the day Augustus had passed away, Hazel was in heavy sorrow and mourn after losing her first love, Augustus. Hazel went to Augustus funeral and left a new pack of cigarettes that Augustus would use right on his casket. The day of the funeral Peter Van Houten gave Hazel a letter written by her dear love, Augustus, before he died.

Tone • The Tone The tone of this novel would be sweet, sad, and sorrowful. The tone is sweet because Augustus was a very sweet guy and selfless to Hazel because he spent his one and only genie wish for Hazel. As mentioned earlier, Augustus explained his love for Hazel making her cry tears of happiness. The tone is also sad and sorrowful because Hazel found her first ever love, which was Augustus , and it was really sad when he passed away because he was such a gentleman to Hazel and the two create so many memories with each other in such a little amount of time. That’s why the tone is Sad , Sorrowful, and Sweet.

Mood • The mood of this story is the author might try to make you feel really, sad because of the plot. Maybe in some events you will say, ”Aww that was so sweet” and there might be on another event where you say, ”OH MY GOODNESS, THAT WAS SO SAD I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT JUST HAPPENED”. But, that honestly depends on how you would feel about this story and what happens.

Protagonist and Antagonist • Protagonist: The Protagonist of the novel is Hazel Grace because she is basically the narrator and she is the girl who falls in love and her life leads to the plot when she meets Augustus. • Antagonist: The Antagonist isn’t exactly a character but it’s the cancer. It leads Hazels and Augustus’ relationship to get ruined because, as mentioned earlier, Augustus died because of his cancer. The two main characters both suffer from cancer and it makes it a struggle to live.

Quote from the Story • The Quote, ” Okay? ” “Okay. ” is one of the most popular quotes from the story. They way the quote was made is on page 73 on my copy of the book it said “Okay, ” He said after forever. “Maybe okay will be our always “ “Okay” I said. The word Always from Isaac and his ex girlfriend because Isaac would always say Always to her and so now Augustus and Hazel would say Okay instead.

NOTE • At the end of the book, in the acknowledgments John Green wrote that Phalanxifor , the drug that Hazel uses to slowly down her cancer does not exist in real life and that he just made it up because he wanted it to exist in the book. • I searched up if “An Imperial Affliction” was a real book, but all the results said it was not a real book and that Peter Van Houten isn’t a real author, meaning John Green made him up.
