Mi-a plăcut foarte mult.Am terminat-o în doua zile:)). A fost prima carte de John Green citita și cu siguranță voi citi și altele. Mi-a plăcut pentru ca se citește ușor, nu este greoaie.


Andreea-Paula Armanu a dat nota:

I expected more from this book as I liked other books from this author. Unfortunately, the plot of the book was quite boring, but it did have some philosophical quotes that I liked.

Recenzii

A thoughtful look at mental illness and a debilitating obsessive-compulsive disorder that doesn't ask but makes you feel the constant struggles of its main character . . .Turtlesexplores the definition of happy endings, whether love is a tragedy or a failure, and a universal lesson for us all: 'You work with what you have'.
A wrenching and revelatory novel
Imaginative . . . affecting . . . unforgettable
Written with a sure grasp of the thought processes of teenagers . . . Another winner
Tender, wise, and hopeful
Green's most authentic and most ambitious work to date
An existential teenage scream
Turtles delivers a lesson that we so desperately need right now: Yes, it is okay not to be okay . . .John Green has crafted a dynamic novel that is deeply honest, sometimes painful, and always thoughtful, delivered with the characteristic charm the author is known for. John Green, welcome back. We missed you.
A full-on emotional bleed-out . . .John Green hasn't created a book as much as he's created a place - a place to have your most indefinable and grotesque thoughts articulated, to ponder the disconnected reality you experience . . . No matter where you are on the spiral - and we're all somewhere - Green's novel makes the trip, either up or down, a less solitary experience.

Descriere

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.
