June Wrap Up

This post has just been sitting here unpublished for months. So I thought I'd just post it, at the time I put quite a bit of effort into it, I just never finished it. So, if you're interested, my June Wrap Up. In October.

So June was a very busy month for me, I had all of my uni assessments due in the last couple of weeks which was super stressful, because I'm not the most organised person. Somehow they were all completed, and I somehow was able to read some books at the same time.

The first book I read this month was:

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
★★★★★

 No, I am not a complete idiot. I *have* read TFIOS before. This was my third time reading the book as the movie was released this month! *Angel choir sings*. The book is amazing, the movie is amazing. If you haven't read/watched it yet (I would recommend you read it first, as always), you definitely should. Definitely one of the best books of our generation. And, just randomly, I hate the title stylised as TFiOS. I'm looking at you, John Green. [GOODREADS]

TRAILER: The Fault in Our Stars

Quick just watch it now, grab some tissues:

So I'm actually watching it again now for the 283297582742837 time. Also after watching the (leaked) trailer, I decided to reread the book, which I finished again today.

Anyways, the trailer is beautiful. It's so well made, the cutting is perfect, the selection of scenes is perfect for readers of the book and also people who have no idea about the story. The quotes are all straight from the book (I know cause I just read it) and are all said perfectly. That being said, I just don't *love* Ansel and Shailene, they just aren't as perfect as the ones in my head. However, I do love Nat Wolff as Isaac. I'm sure in the coming months I will begin to accept them more as their amazing characters. I also love the background music (We're on Our Way by Radical Face and What You Wanted by OneRepublic) it perfectly breaks up the trailer and engages me. DAMN JOHN GREEN AND JOSH BOONE.
