Turtles All The Way Down – A review

John Green had huge success with his 2012 Novel called The Fault in Our Stars. The success of this book makes it difficult to follow up however there is no holding back with his next book, Turtles All The Way Down.

Turtles All The Way Down is a book which has done it’s best to appeal to readers with very little fuss. The book follows a very safe recipe of appealing to the sentimental and cliche teen style story lines.

The story is based around life through the eyes of an Indianapolis teenage girl named Aza Holmes who also narrates the story. The story is based around her and her friend Daisy and their search for a billionaire called Russell Pickett. Russell Pickett has gone missing with allegations of fraud and bribery against his name. The reward for finding Russell Picket is $100,000 which appeals to the girls.

As the search begins, Aza meets and starts to fall in love with Russell Picket’s son, Davis. Davis is the typical troubled rich boy who is still finding it hard to come to terms with the death of his mum nine years ago. It turns out that if his father has died then the entire fortune of the estate will go to his pet tuatara. Interesting.

This base builds for a interesting novel with love and action along the way. There book is not perfect but it is a definitely pleasant literature experience.
