Miss Lulu on her new favorite perch. I tried to explain to her that she was sitting on my very own book, one that I wrote with much blood, sweat, and tears, but she wasn’t having it. #allthebrightplaces #catsofinstagram #cutecat #catsandbooks

Spotlight on Finch of 'All the Bright Places'

Who is Theodore Finch?


He is: brilliant, funny, and fearless. He is: misunderstood, troubled, and volatile. He plays music. He runs to stay alive. He collects facts about suicide. He loves Violet Markey. He is either Awake or Asleep, with nothing in between. When we meet him, he’s standing on the ledge of his high school bell tower, contemplating jumping.

I always create playlists for my books and sometimes for the characters themselves. Here are Finch’s Songs That Will Change the World.

Here’s an article I wrote for them on the Top 10 Books to Save Your Life. To quote myself: “What I love about books is they remind us we’re not alone.”
