About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Turtles All the Way Down by John Green, read by Kate Rudd.

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.

Kate Rudd reads extremely well, her characters are clearly defined and consistent and add to the way that you visualise them.
I enjoyed the novel itself, there are undercurrents if mental illness seen from the perspective of the girl herself as well as those around her; an interesting insight. It doesn’t contain too many mature themes so I would say it is suitable for young teen readers. The thoughts that the readers are exposed to are mind opening and quite moving. It doesn’t sugar coat mental illness to have a happy ending, rather shows that there is a way forward.
Highly recommend.

Beautifully written and skilfully read. Great for teens.

I love John green and it’s such a shame that the reading sounds like it’s been performed by a robot. John deserves better than this!!

Sounds like it’s voiced by a robot

Beautifully told with so many pearls to quote when life calls. OCD was described perfectly.

I wanted to keep reading/listening!

For the most part of this book I found the main character to be whiny and annoying, until at one moment I realised that was how I was meant to feel about her. I was ignoring her illness and what it felt to be HER.
I truly loved this book, because it’s true to life - it just goes on. Highly recommend to those who need their minds opened.
