I had not read any of John Green’s other books until now (haven’t even seen “The Fault in Our Stars” movie) but I did want to see how he depicted the thoughts of a girl with OCD and anxiety. Who is she, really? Where does her self begin and end? She sees a doctor and has medication - that she mostly, kinda, takes regularly - but these thoughts are almost another personality inside her head. She gets caught in spirals she can’t free herself from. And Aza and Davis get reacquainted.Īza’s romance with Davis, as everything in her life does, gets complicated by her struggle with anxiety and obsessive thoughts. Their conversation leads to one little idea, taking the two on a little canoe ride down the river from Aza’s small house to Davis’s huge one. That information might have stayed simply a tidbit of interest except for the fact that there’s a $100,000 reward for tips leading to Pickett’s capture. A few years earlier, Aza and Davis went to a camp together for kids who had lost a parent. Aza’s best friend, Daisy, notes the news and mentions to Aza, “Didn’t you know his son?” She did. Billionaire developer Russell Pickett is on the lam, just as he was about to be arrested for bribing public officials.
