“Astonishing…. So surprising and moving and true that I became completely unstrung.” – The New York Times
It’s quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see.
Sixteen-year-old Aza never intended to pursue the mystery of fugitive billionaire Russell Pickett, but there’s a hundred-thousand-dollar reward at stake and her Best and Most Fearless Friend, Daisy, is eager to investigate. So together, they navigate the short distance and broad divides that separate them from Russell Pickett’s son, Davis.
Aza is trying. She is trying to be a good daughter, a good friend, a good student, and maybe even a good detective, while also living within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts.
In his long-awaited return, John Green, the acclaimed, award-winning author of Looking for Alaska and The Fault in Our Stars, shares Aza’s story with shattering, unflinching clarity in this brilliant novel of love, resilience, and the power of lifelong friendship.
John Green is the award-winning, #1 bestselling author of Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, Paper Towns, Will Grayson, Will Grayson (with David Levithan), and The Fault in Our Stars. His many accolades include the Printz Medal, a Printz Honor, and the Edgar Award. John has twice been a finalist for the LA Times Book Prize and was selected by TIME magazine as one o...

Hats off to John Green. YA是个tricky genre,然而写YA必须是他的calling了。

不小心瞎看了一个少年小说… 焦虑症的描写得不错,有一种喘不过气的淹没感。故事主线实在没有推动作用,不管是失踪的百万富翁还是女主的感情。剩下的就是些少年哲学,虽然让人腻味,却让我想到很多年前的自己:十几岁时什么都不懂,却对一切有着自以为深刻的理论,回想起来幼稚敏感,但居然有些怀念!
