BEST. NEWS. EVERRR!

John Green, the best-selling author of The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns, is working on a new book and it's coming out this year, Candy Girls!

Yup, you read that right! How soon? Penguin Teen revealed that the new novel is coming out on October 10. And the best part? They gave us some idea about what's the story about.

"Turtles All the Way Down begins with a fugitive billionaire and a cash reward. It is about lifelong friendship, the intimacy of an unexpected reunion, Star Wars fan fiction, and tuatara. But at its heart is Aza Holmes, a young woman navigating daily existence within the ever-tightening spiral of her own thoughts." (via PenguinTeen.com)

In his big reveal at a video conference, the author shared something really personal. "This is my first attempt to write directly about the kind of mental illness that has affected my life since childhood, so while the story is fictional, it is also quite personal," John Green said.

Ohhh. Sounds interesting and exciting because we've been big fans of this guy since Looking for Alaska. Hooray!
