Turtles All The Way Down
Turtles all the way down is an expression of the problem of infinite regression. This is something that intrigued me when looking for a new book to read, as I remember this being an interesting concept in Sixth Form. The book is about a girl named Aza, who struggles with her mental health (especially after the death of her father).
Her and her outgoing friend take on a challenge after finding out local billionaire Pickett has gone missing, and there is a big cash reward for any information leading to the case.

Aza believes this may help her heath, and could stop her having the constant urge to pierce her own finger pad with her thumbnail, as the case mat act as a distraction.
The story is thrilling and the book is hard to put down. It combines mental heath issues with love, with friendship and with school.
I would give this 4.5 stars, as it also incorporated art and creativity, which is something I enjoy in real life, at uni and in my free time.
Thanks for reading!
