Turtles All the Way Down by John GreenMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is such a real life, authentic book. It reminds me of It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini as well as Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger.
I'm becoming a big fan of John Green <3 The way he writes is so beautiful, poetic, and authentically heart churning.
It's such a teen fitting question of "Who are we? Who am I? What is our purpose? Are we just water and bacteria living in this balloon of a body? What makes us who we are? Circumstances, what we own what we like? It's interesting hearing the inside thoughts of a troubled teen, even though it's made up from John Green. He must have personally known someone with OCD to have written this book.
I loved Aza's best friend Daisy she was so funny and such a good friend. When they blew up at eachother I really felt like I was there with them, felt so real...
