You have a very powerful voice, as Ray--yo said, but I cannot agree with your point of view. Yes, the book discusses cancer patients. Yes, John Green made money on the book. By the way, have we mentioned that the focus of the book is on two very special people and their relationship, not on their sickness? To quote the book/movie, "No, not your cancer story. Your real story." John Green made money off of this because (1) he is an incredibly talented writer, and (2) this book tells the beautiful story of two young people finding true love in the midst of hardship. That is a message that resonates with people. Now, my hardship is not your hardship is not their hardship. Does that really minimize the significance of cancer, or in your words, glorify it? I think that on the contrary, this book has raised awareness for the horrible tragedy that is cancer. He does not tiptoe around this subject, case in point being Caroline, Gus's late girlfriend. This books fosters empathy, exactly opposite to what you have said. I feel like we read two very different books... assuming we've both actually read the book, not just watched the movie.

and by voice I mean your tone, if it was not clear. Once again, awesome writing.

Wow, you have such a strong voice. Congratulations on the publication!
