HOLY SMOKES, IT'S HERE!!!

OK, this post has two "It's Here!"s:

1) This Star Won't Go Out - Now that you've read (and fallen in love with) The Fault In Our Stars...meet Esther who was a real-life NERD FIGHTER and inspired Hazel's character.  This book is a collection of the journals, fiction, letters, and sketeches of the late Esther Grace Earl, who passed away in 2010 at the age of 16.  Photographs and essays by family and friends will help to tell Esther's story along with an introduction by award-winning author John Green who dedicated his #1 bestselling novel The Fault in Our Stars to her (BP).
HCMS library has 5 copies; so come and check one out today!


2) The Fault In Our Stars official movie trailer is OUT!!!!  HOLY MOLY!
Ok, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book.  And like any book I love, am wicked scared of the movie.  Because we all know that film makers tend to screw it all up.  But I am definitely going to go see this movie because:

A) John Green gave his blessing and spent pretty much every day on the set.  We know he'd kick some bootay (or at least be producing some hater Nerd 
Fighter YouTube videos) if things were not accurately portrayed.  So I trust him.

B) I love Shaileen Woodley.  I think she's going to do right by Hazel Grace Lancaster.  And whoo, Ansel Elgort makes for a pretty dang good Augustus.

JUNE 6, PEOPLE!  JUNE 6!!!!!
