"One more drive in the middle of the night just talking about the universe and everything in it. I would allow Augustus space to live a little longer in Hazel's world. And not just in her heart. Because sometimes the greatest tragedy is not that someone is gone but that they left before they could fully live. And Augustus, with all his dreams, his fears and his metaphors, he deserved to live. And Hazel deserved a memory that didn't end in an empty hospital bed."

"But she's met with a surprise. The wooden box has washed up on the shore, now empty except for a small note that reads, the river will carry us to eternity. Firmina smiles, knowing that Florentino's love will forever be intertwined with the river's flow and that their story will continue to unfold in the currents of time."

"I mean, I get the whole believe what you won't thing, but still, I wish they just stuck to the magical story. It felt more meaningful and beautiful that way. The twist just left me kinda empty. Like the magic was snatched away at the last second."

"If I could rewrite the ending, I would not just keep Augustus alive. I would give them both a future. One where their love evolves beyond hospital visits and support guys and groups. Maybe they travel. Maybe they write a book together. Maybe they become advocates for others fighting similar battles. But they live, they grow, they heal. Not perfectly, but powerfully. Because sometimes fiction is where we seek the justice real life denies us."

"Like we were all rooting for a second chance for love to change things. And then, boom, plot twist that left us in tears. If I could change it, I'd make him choose life. Maybe start a foundation with Lou, or even just travel together. Just slowly heal each other. It didn't have to be a fairy tale ending, but something with hope. At least you know. Anyway, that's my little rant. Thank you."

"Greetings to all the wonderful listeners out there. My name is Jahan Bijoo from Hindustan University, and to answer the prompt, the book or book series that I would love to change the ending of is the Divergent series, specifically the book Allegiant. So in that book, spoiler alert if you haven't read the book or have not read the series. So in that book, what happens is the protagonist of the story, Triss, is shot and dies."

"Hey, guys. So the book I'm gonna be talking about is the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I know a lot of people love this book, and they say that it changed their life, but for me, personally, it just didn't hit that deep. It felt kind of repetitive. Like the message of follow your dreams was just constantly hammered in over and over without much nuance to it. And the characters, I couldn't really connect with them either."

"I don't like it, and I genuinely don't like him as a writer. The other thing is, oh, my God, he will literally write 10 paragraphs, and he would be going on and on and on about something, and he can say that thing in, like, literally two lines. And I understand that the writers are supposed to do this. It is a type of. You know, it's a side of a type of writing a book. You."

"So I hate genuinely did not like to reading this book and I see so many people talking about how it's such a great book but please, if you're going to read it, don't be misguided into thinking that it's going to be like an amazing book because it's not going to be. So yeah, that's the book that I hate I'm going to talk about today."

"So in this regard I hope and I wish that she had escaped a terrible life and that she went with Leila for once and she could have had happiness and in turn led a better life. That's the ending that I would like to propose."
