John Green is one of the premier young adult writers of this generation. He writes in a way, with distinct emotions from his characters, that makes the transition to film just work. We all saw that in “The Fault in Our Stars.”
Not surprisingly, “Turtles All The Way Down” has been made into a movie as well. After some delays, it will be released in Spring 2024 on Max (formerly HBO Max).
What should you know? While the book is a work of fiction, it is certainly informed by Green’s own self-reported anxiety and OCD. Very much worth the read!
