“Turtles All the Way Down” By John Green Review

Aza Holmes never intended to pursue the disappearance 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 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.

To be very honest here, this book surprised me a lot because it was much better than I expected it to be. I didn’t know anything about this book before reading it and let me tell you that this book is very good.

I started reading this book without knowing much about it, and it might have been a good things because I didn’t have any expectations for this book. 

The writing style in this book is very very good, its like the author knew what words to use to completely grab my attention. 

The plot here is very unique here because is about teen girl trying to solve a murder while she is dealing with mental health issue. A lot of these things the plot talked about mental health problems was really relatable for me personally.

I haven’t come across a plot like this one yet so I give the plot in this book some extra points. Because I really really liked it.

The characters in this book weren’t quite the perfect character, but they were good character not like in the previous John Green book I’ve read which was “Paper Towns” were the characters were so damn annoying and shallow. But this book and its characters were very good. 

I liked all of the characters in this book, because all of the characters in this book had their own unique personalities and they had something which made them unique. At the same time they felt like they were real human beings because they had so much personality. And the main characters problems with mental health with anxiety and OCD to be more specific made her feel even more real. Because her issues with mental health felt very similar to my anxiety and panic attacks. And I couldn’t help but relate to her a lot. And feel what she goes through because I go through the same things as she does.

This book will for sure stick with me for a long time because I liked it so much. But also the reason why it will stick with me for a long time is because it truly and accurately describes how it feels like living with anxiety and OCD. This book is very accurate with its descriptions about what goes through your mind when you are living with anxiety and OCD.

I Give This Book 5 / 5
