I mean, 2016 was like, the practice dumpster fire for the inferno of garbage that is 2020. Like 2017-2019 was just people piling up garbage on top of the pile of burnt rubbish that was 2016, completely ignoring it and then someone set fire to that bigger pile of garbage in February

A spoiler is an automotive aerodynamic device whose intended design function is to 'spoil' unfavorable air movement across a body of a vehicle in motion, usually described as turbulence or drag. Spoilers on the front of a vehicle are often called air dams. Spoilers are often fitted to race and high-performance sports cars, although they have become common on passenger vehicles as well. Some spoilers are added to cars primarily for styling purposes and have either little aerodynamic benefit or even make the aerodynamics worse. - Wikipedia HA I TALKED ABOUT SPOILERS!!!

So I'm reading Turtles All The Way Down (NO SPOILERS I PROMISE) whilst avoiding most people in my life, and I realized something. Because I've been watching you two since approximately summer of 2009, it feels as though I can respond to a line that John wrote, or a song that Hank released, in the same way one might respond to a friend. It feels personal, somehow, to read things I've heard discussed on a podcast about chronic pain, or to read the word "deadpanned" and be reminded of Paper Towns. I'm reading this book and it feels like home. It's entirely new, an undiscovered compilation of thoughts and ideas and concepts, yet it's familiar in form and rhythm and tone. I love that. I hope that you read this, John. I don't expect you to remember the one time that we met, when I told you that I wrote my college entrance essay about the concept of Paper Towns and got into my first choice school, but nonetheless I hope that you read these words and know that the eight years I've spent in Nerdfighteria have changed my very essence of being. Thank you. - Kira Shaputis

My book arrived yesterday when I was at work while I had forgotten that it was arriving to me today at all. My boyfriend had simply texted me "You've gotten a package in a strange rectangular box." I was at a loss as to what it could be until I saw it physically and it hit me. My boyfriend was quite excited for me to get this book because I was so very much interested in how the mental health aspect would be displayed. He made me open it immediately as I had specifically preordered a signed edition . You see, I try to be a good friend, a good girlfriend, a good daughter, a good sister and a good employee but sometimes my Complex PTSD just simply doesn't allow me to be. Or at least it doesn't allow me to feel like I am anything at all. Certainly not special. When I saw that certain signatures were different than a simple scribble I had hoped to get one because that would be special. I quickly pushed such hopes aside because I had never been picked for anything in my life at least nothing special or cool. I live in an on again, off again thought spiral of past emotions. They were created to protect me from harm, but now only bring me back to the fear and the worthlessness I've felt much of my life while the sun now shines around me. Only a few days ago was I able to realize that one of my most consistent thought processes was just an old traumatic version of me that had burrowed itself deep into my being. It is called Insignificant. I am not special, I don't get special things because I am like cellophane. I opened the book to the page where the signature was and there was your signature with a hanklerfish and a small misplaced dot in the middle of the loop of your "J". Maybe I am special in the way I've never known and that my emotions have yet to fully allow me to feel. I have a few friends that understand if I don't want to come over for a month and choose only to send love via facebook messages because I am too worn to want to leave my home. I have a superior that understands when I need to take a moment to myself or didn't reprimand me when my boyfriend called me out of work (30 minutes before I had to be there) because my panic attack had such a hold on me that I couldn't talk. I have a cat that chose me and still loves me even though I didn't realize that she had done so until I came back a week later to maybe just see. I have a boyfriend that helps continue my therapy outside of the office I go to once a week. He used looking at that signature as a therapeutic moment "See you are special," he said "Special enough for me to want you here for so long and special enough to get what you wanted." Thank you, and I greatly look forward to reading the book.

I’m in the middle of Aza’s big spiral in the middle of the book and I’m stunned by the bravery you have for having writing from even a simulacrum of your own experience in such vivid awfulness. I hope you know by now that such bravery is a gift to the world.

John Green!!! Turtles All The Way Down is giving me so much life today!! I'm on page 42 and so far you're averaging like one delightfully genius quote or idea per page. It's absolutely ridiculous. I started a notes category on my phone of quotes from your book that I want to remember and share with people, but I have to pause a lot because there're so many! I expected to like this book, but holy cheese! It's above and beyond. Thank you so much for sharing your genius with the world.

Watching this video with Yello's "Tied Up" playing the background works on so many levels. HOW?! Also, congratulations John on another massive success. And congratulations to you, Hank, for being the super chilled-out brother. much love from Tasmania

want a visual representation of 2017? How about my hometown of Santa Rosa which my parents and I had to evacuate because... you know... ACTUAL GIANT FUCKING FIRES. I'm scared and don't know if I have a home to return to and this video gave me a moment of joy.

My Fiance and I just got our mutually owned signed copy of TAWD, and are reading a chapter together every night starting last night! :) I love it so far, and as a teen to the present I struggled with Anixety disorder in varying degrees. I feel like she fairly represents us

This is your first book that's been published since I discovered Nerdfighteria/your books (I read TFIOS a few months after it was published), and it has been SUCH A JOY to watch the whole process and to get so hyped, and today I finally got the book and I can't stop smiling! I love the physical book itself, the texture of the book jacket, the cover art, the end papers, the weight of it... AND I love everything I've read so far. What a true and utter delight. CONGRATS John and THANK YOU!

John: “If 2016 was a giant dumpster fire, what is a visual representation of 2017” Hank: “Is it just like what’s left after a dumpster fire fire?” John: “2017 - the year of burned garbage” 👁👄👁 Well ... What would 2020 be then?

Only 50 pages in so far, and to give my spoiler free thoughts, its really refreshing to read a character who suffers from symptoms of a mental illness that I'm struggling to get treatment for. Avoiding spoilers and fully identifying the behavior as what I got through, but it has been tremendously comforting to me to read. That's largely how I feel about your online presence in my life as well John, in so much as you are an example of what can be achieved with a mental illness somewhere in the anxiety spectrum. Much love and best wishes from another devoted reader xx

The show was amazing! And everybody was so kind (as expected in Nerdfighteria). As an aspiring writer myself, being able to attend this event and connect over videos, shared moments, and of course WORDS was an incredible experience. Also, John, your kids are absolutely adorable. They were jumping up and down so much during the show I was convinced that instead of totes and books, they were given mini trampolines :) You have so much to be proud of. DFTBA

I just finished reading your book. It wasn't the first book of yours I've read but it definitely is the one I love the most. It did not only move me- it kickstarted a thought process that hurts, but it's the kind of hurt that is necessary, that will help me to grow into a better person I hope. I identify with Aza. It felt like I was her rather than watching her acting out a story. I couldn't stop reading. I missed this feeling. Thank you. Thank you so so much.
