oh wait, no, i'm dumb-dumb, this is some meta shit, wow!
it's a john green self-insert screaming at john green to stop doing what john green does and i honestly love it, it's just so unlike his previous stuff and, honestly, it's really cool to see someone so ridiculously popular tackle this. open the floodgates, mr. Green, show the world what it's like, teach them to empathize.

aka John Green tackles mental health
the story is actually kind of down-to-earth so far, well, except for the missing billionaire, but, y'know, beggars, choosers, desperate fan staying up at 2am to finish the book

Turtles All the Way Down


Sem
Sem is starting Hilda and the Black Hound (Hilda, #4)
It's a great book with a beautiful colour palette, a great use of mixed lore from all over the world, and really witty humour.
I also did a full review of it in Russian at: http://ninegrid.ru/2017/08/08/hilda/

I can't tell whether I'm supposed to find the main female character obnoxious or not, but, just in case, I do. I really freaking do.

And Then There Were Four

Sem is on page 71 of 336 of The Music Shop
Reading an ARC of one of my favourite current writers is an amazing privilege, made even sweeter by the fact that it's a warm, inviting book tinged with Joyce's trademark melancholy. My review will be a blubbering mess of happiness and tears, guaranteed.
