Turtles All the Way Down

from Book Shelter · host Book Shelter

The main body of the Book contains narrative passages and dialogue between the protagonist, Aza Holmes, and her friends, Daisy and Mychal, as well as interactions with Davis Pickett and his younger brother Noah, focusing on the disappearance of their billionaire father. These sections highlight Aza's internal struggles with anxiety and obsessive thoughts, particularly concerning her health and the nature of reality, often expressed through her fear of microscopic organisms and inability to control her own body and mind, contrasting with Daisy's more pragmatic and sometimes harsh perspective, and the unfolding mystery of Russell Pickett's whereabouts and the associated reward money. The text also includes glimpses into Davis's life after his father's disappearance, including his online journal entries, his relationship with Noah, and his growing connection with Aza. Finally, the excerpts touch on themes of privilege, friendship dynamics, the search for identity, and the impact of mental illness.You can listen and download our episodes for free on more than 10 different platforms:https://linktr.ee/book_shelterGet the Book now from Amazon:https://www.amazon.com/Turtles-All-Down-John-Green/dp/0525555366?&linkCode=ll1&tag=cvthunderx-20&linkId=8af4a30b5b1308ceb993879a56993362&language=en_US&ref_=as_li_ss_tlProduced by Podcai Studio:https://www.podcaistudio.com/
