My cousin recommended The Dinner a while back, so I was
looking around for it for a while. However, Dutch books are pretty expensive
compared to their English counterparts –which I find crazy since I live in the
Netherlands yet they keep their own books pricier over other language books-,
and I was determined to read the novel in its original Dutch version. Luckily,
as I was scouring through boxes of books on the market one day I came across a
copy for 2 Euros, and I immediately picked it up. That was already a few months
back. I finally got round to reading it. Review and summary after the jump.

The Fault in Our Stars, reviewed
I'm a professed Young Adult fiction fan. I find that teen angst can be used to convey many emotions and settings that are somewhat more difficult ( though not at all impossible) to bring forth in otherwise normal fiction. Though I'm more into the post-apocalyptic, dystopian side of the genre, I got to know John Green, as many others undoubtedly did, Through the YouTube page he shares with his brother, Hank. I bought The Fault in Our Stars about a week ago and immediately got into it. Read a synopsis and my review after the jump
