Turtles All the Way Down by John Green, 286 pages.
John Green is always fun to read and to listen too. Aza Holmes has some problems with OCD, with her fear of Clostridium Dificile infections (among other fears), and with people too. Her best friend, Daisy, writes Star-Wars fan and is well-regarded for that. Aza and Daisy seek out Davis, a boy Aza had a crush on when she and he attended what she calls "sad camp," after seeing that his billionaire-under-indictment father has disappeared. As Davis and Aza reconnect, Aza has to decide how far to take the investigation she and Daisy have launched into the disappearance, while Aza figures out how to best help Davis, his younger brother (who is having a hard time being rich and parentless), and herself. A moving, intelligent, and compassionate book.
