the Year "Green finds the language to describe the indescribable. .
. . A must-read for those struggling with mental illness, or for
their friends and family." --San Francisco Chronicle
"A powerful tale for teens (and adults) about anxiety, love and
friendship." --The Los Angeles Times "Wrenching and Revelatory."
--The New York Times "Tender, wise, and hopeful." --The Wall Street
Journal "A new modern classic." --The Guardian "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.'" --USA Today "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." --Mashable "Green does more than
write about; he endeavours to write inside.... 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." --The Globe
and Mail "This novel is by far [Green's] most difficult to read.
It's also his most astonishing. . . . So surprising and moving and
true that I became completely unstrung. . . . One needn't be
suffering like Aza to identify with it. One need only be human."
--Jennifer Senior, The New York Times "Green's most authentic and
most ambitious work to date." --Bustle "An existential teenage
scream." --Vox "Funny, clever, and populated with endearing
characters." --Entertainment Weekly "An incredibly powerful tale of
the pain of mental illness, the pressures of youth, and coming of
age when you feel like you're coming undone." --Shelf Awareness ★
"A richly rewarding read...the most mature of Green's work to date
and deserving of all the accolades that are sure to come its way."
--Booklist ★ "In an age where troubling events happen almost
weekly, this deeply empathetic novel about learning to live with
demons and love one's imperfect self is timely and important."

will inform and enlighten readers even as it breaks their hearts. A
must-buy." --School Library Journal Praise for John Green - 50

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

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
