My own cover
The background of the book’s front cover is light blue. There are two big clouds, a white one and a black one, which are the things you recognize first. The title, “The Fault in Our Stars”, is written in the black cloud and the name of the author, John Green, is written in the white cloud. The font resembles the fog in the clouds, which makes it very suitable for the rest of the cover. Altogether, the front cover looks like a sky with some clouds. Above the two clouds is a yellow dot and it says that the book is a No. 1 New York Times bestseller. This is kind of an advertisement because the publisher of the book wants you to think that the book must be good as it is a bestseller. At the bottom there is a quote from a famous German-Australian author, Markus Zusak. He tells us about the feelings he had while reading the book and that he wanted to read more books by John Green.
On the back cover, there is one quote from the famous newspaper “Time”, which tells us how good the book is. The next paragraph is kind of an advertisement as well. Again, the designer of the book cover wants us to think it is an incredible good book. The last paragraph summarizes the plot very roughly. We can guess that Hazel and Augustus fall in love, although it is not written in the text.
As I have already seen the movie and read the book as well, I know what the plot is about and I know that I like it. When I went to the cinema to watch the movie, I was a bit sceptical because I normally do not like dramatic and sentimental films but afterwards I was very impressed how good it is and it was actually the first movie I have ever nearly started to cry. A few months later I decided to buy the book because one of my friends told me that it is pretty good. Again, I was very sceptical because I did not want to read the book in case I do not like it as much as I liked the movie. I was not sure, whether the author could describe the story as good as it is described in the movie and I thought that I would not like the book at all if it was not as great as the film. Another thing I was not really sure about was that I do not read a lot of fictional books. I mean I do read a lot but mostly no made up stories. Obviously there was a lot of doubt whether to read it or not but finally I ended up reading it – and I did not regret it.
