News quickly spreads that there are Carls in dozens of cities around the world-from Beijing to Buenos Aires-and April, as their first documentarian, finds herself at the center of an intense international media spotlight. The next day, April wakes up to a viral video and a new life. Delighted by its appearance and craftsmanship-like a ten-foot-tall Transformer wearing a suit of samurai armor-April and her best friend, Andy, make a video with it, which Andy uploads to YouTube. Roaming through New York City at three a.m., twenty-three-year-old April May stumbles across a giant sculpture. In his wildly entertaining debut novel, Hank Green -cocreator of Crash Course, Vlogbrothers, and SciShow- spins a sweeping, cinematic tale about a young woman who becomes an overnight celebrity before realizing she's part of something bigger, and stranger, than anyone could have possibly imagined.
