Book 1 Project: The Fault in Our Affliction Fan Memorabilia Pack

Meet the new Romeo and Juliet. We fall in love with The Fault in our Stars’ Hazel Grace Lancaster and Augustus Waters “the way you fall asleep, slowly, and then all at once.” Hazel and Augustus are two of the most beloved characters written in this decade, and despite the fact that they are fiction, with The Fault in Our Affliction Fan Memorabilia Pack, fans get the chance to enter the world of Hazel and Augustus, literally. Included in this pack is a “literal” heart of Jesus, an infinity necklace for girls and an infinity wristband for boys, a t shirt with cigarettes on it the says “it’s a metaphor,” all enclosed inside a box made to look like the fictional book talked about in the novel, An Imperial Affliction. With this pack you can relive the best lines, objects and moments from The Fault in our Stars!

            When Hazel and Augustus first meet at a support group for kids with cancer in The Fault in our Stars, their first encounter is quite hilarious. The support group leader Patrick says while praying that the group is “literally in the heart of Jesus,” this turns into one of the most memorable conversations of the novel: "We are literally in the heart of Jesus," he said. "I thought we were in a church basement, but we are literally in the heart of Jesus." "Someone should tell Jesus," I said. "I mean, it's gotta be dangerous, storing children with cancer in your heart." "I would tell Him myself," Augustus said, "but unfortunately I am literally stuck inside of His heart, so He won't be able to hear me." With the Fault in our Affliction Fan Memorabilia Pack, fans can get a “literal” heart of Jesus that inside stores the most memorable quotes from the novel that can be posted on notebooks, walls or anything! Fans can relive the hilarity of this joke and feel closer to Hazel and Augustus. What we’re offering here, essentially, is to connect with some of the most memorable moments and quotes of the novel, which is also offered with the infinity necklace/wristband included in the pack. Hazel tells Augustus that “some infinities are bigger than other infinities,” which fans of the novel will love because they can now be both stylish and be connected to Hazel and Gus! In the novel, Gus is also deeply in to metaphors. He often would pull out a cigarette, place it between his teeth, and yet, not smoke it. He said that “It's a metaphor, see: You put the killing thing right between your teeth, but you don't give it the power to do its killing.” This t shirt enclosed in the pack is both a way for Gus to live on even though he passed away, and it’s a conversation starter. It’s not every day someone’s wearing a shirt with cigarettes on it! Be a trend setter! In the novel, Hazel has an obsession with a book very relatable to her, An Imperial Affliction. She can relate to it like no one else can and it comes up again and again throughout the novel, making fans wish it was a real book. All the items in this pack are enclosed inside of a box painted to look like the book cover for An Imperial Affliction. Fans can feel like the novel is real and also create their own sequel to An Imperial Affliction with the extra blank pages inside the box.

            This fan memorabilia pack will allow The Fault in our Stars fans to relive the quotable and memorable moments in the book and feel as if they know Hazel and Gus themselves. It’s a way to continue the infinity and is something that can be passed down for generations. This pack is so one of a kind that its appeal will garner new fans to flock to the book immediately. Its appeal will also attract people to John Green’s other novels and could lead to more memorabilia packs. All the items represent ideas central to the novel as a whole, and with the pack fans can experience them for themselves. The items enclosed are special, and things that can be cherished forever, just like Hazel and Gus’ little infinity.
