Cancer books often
follow a depressing theme and Rachel Syme wants people to know that The Fault In Our Stars has much more to
offer. Syme uses comparison and unique syntax to share her love of this book in
her online review. She thanks John Green, the author of the book, and persuades
others to read it too.
To show the
creative plot of The Fault In Our Stars
Syme compares it to other popular cancer books. She opens the essay with a
description of another book. She explains her belief that cancer needs to be
written, for what it actually is. Either writing goes too far in the humor or
is too depressing in the discussion and “Fortunately, John Green is the kind of
writer to deliver it” (Para 3). By adding these comparisons into her review,
Syme makes it easier for the reader to determine if this is the type of book
they would enjoy reading. The reader has the ability to narrow down how the
story of cancer is shown from John Green’s perspective.
Syme writes the
review with creative syntax to parallel the interesting styles used in the
book. She writes, “Green graciously avoids the typical will-they-or-won’t-they of
most teen reads” (Para 5) to add her own touch into the essay. She makes it
very interesting to appeal to the audience so they read The fault In Our Stars. Syme attempts to express to her readers
that Green’s “Language is complex, his syntax adult” (Para 4). In the review she proves the many strengths
that the book posses.
Syme entrances her
readers with her unique writing styles and highlights the many great aspects of
The Fault In Our Stars with her
comparisons. She ends the review, “You will be thankful, too, for the little
infinity you spend inside this book” (Para 8) because she truly believes people
should read this book.
