A setting in the novel would be the church during support group, where Hazel first met Augustus.

The most important setting in my opinion would be Amsterdam, because it's where Hazel and Augustus really connected and you actually see that for the first time in a way.

And last but not least, both Hazel and Augusts spent a significant amount of time in the hospital throughout the novel.

22.) Lidewij finds Gus's missing last words and emails them to Hazel, ending the novel.

My personal rating of this book is a 10- because of the depth and thought put into it, not to mention the thought I myself went into while reading it.

Readers that enjoy deeper thoughts than the average everyday life, or normal dramas would like this book; in my opinion.
