It all begins with a fugitive billionaire and the promise of a cash reward.
Turtles All the Way Down is about lifelong friendship, the intimacy of an unexpected reunion, Star Wars fan fiction, and tuatara. But at its heart is Aza Holmes, a young woman navigating daily existence within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts.
In his long-awaited return, John Green shares Aza's story with shattering, unflinching clarity.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM FOR THE FAULT IN OUR STARS
"Damn near genius . . . The Fault in Our Stars is a love story, one of the most genuine and moving ones in recent American fiction, but it's also an existential tragedy of tremendous intelligence and courage and sadness." --Lev Grossman, TIME Magazine
"This is a book that breaks your heart--not by wearing it down, but by making it bigger until it bursts." --The Atlantic
"Remarkable . . . A pitch-perfect, elegiac comedy." --USA Today
"[Green's] voice is so compulsively readable that it defies categorization. You will be thankful for the little infinity you spend inside this book." --NPR.org
"John Green deftly mixes the profound and the quotidian in this tough, touching valentine to the human spirit." --The Washington Post
"[Green] shows us true love--two teenagers helping and accepting each other through the most humiliating physical and emotional ordeals--and it is far more romantic than any sunset on the beach." --New York Times Book Review
