438 Words2 Pages

Summary (Goodreads) Sixteen-year-old Aza never intended to pursue the mystery of fugitive billionaire Russell Pickett, but there’s a hundred thousand dollar reward at stake and her Best and Most Fearless Friend, Daisy, is eager to investigate. So together, they navigate the short distance and broad divides that separate them from Russell Pickett’s son, Davis. Aza is trying. She is trying to be a good daughter, a good friend, a good student, and maybe even a good detective, while also living within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts. My Thoughts I know I 'm a little late to this since most people posted about John Green 's new book before or as soon as it came out, but I still need to talk about it. Like everyone else, I pre-ordered the book as soon as it came out. John hasn 't …show more content…

I don 't have a metal illness but a lot of my friends do and it can be hard to relate or understand what they 're going through, especially when you 've never gone through it. Now, I can 't really speak for it, but based on what I 've heard from my friends about mental illness, I thought that Green did a wonderful job portraying what it 's like to have a mental illness as a teenage girl. Even though it didn 't exactly have a happy ending, I loved Aza and Davis ' relationship. It showed not only what it 's like to date with a mental illness but what it 's like to date someone with a mental illness. The relationship was the perfect mix of cute moments and real struggles. I liked the added plot of the mystery with Russell Pickett. It made the story interesting. And I don 't usually like reading stories like that but when it 's not the center of the story I find that I enjoy the added suspense. Rating 5 out of 5 stars Turtles All the Way Down was an amazing read and I would recommend it to anyone. It addresses real world problems while still being a fun and entertaining book. John Green is a brilliant writer and I would recommend any

All this time, I just assumed the rightful story was the one portrayed in the Disney movie. That sounds funny to type out, and quite ignorant. Finding out that she never married John Smith was eye opening for me.

    This novel was exceptionally peculiar, which made the book nearly impossible to predict and held my attention until the very end. Matthew Quick was able to write a story I could easily relate to because of my passion towards basketball and common hardships teenagers endure. Moreover, frequent scenarios within the novel showed realistic struggles within violence that are very relatable and realistic in the 21st century. For instance, the internal struggles of high schoolers such as jealousy and trying to fit in. On top of this, it was astounding to see all three dynamic characters, Russ, Erin, and Finley develop throughout the story, as all three grew their friendship and learned from one another leaving you breathless.

At first, you might think that the novel is pale and boring but this book has its own sweet time to pick up the thriller type of genre that readers will not expect- It is definitely worth the wait.
