Consider The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. Recommended by 4 sources.
“John Green's novel reads like a teen-first-person confessional: voice-first, wry, and often self-aware. Most of the pleasure comes from the banter between Hazel and Augustus, the book's knack for blunt one-liners, and its blunt focus on youth confronting mortality without sentimental erasure. The limitation is a tendency toward theatrical scenes and repeated metaphors that some readers find emotionally manipulative; if you prefer plot-driven novels or clinical distance, the lingering sadness and romantic idealization may grate. Best read when you want a quick, emotionally concentrated story.”
