Book • 2018
In this debut novel, Hank Green tells the story of April May, a 23-year-old who stumbles upon a giant sculpture in New York City.

After her friend uploads a video of the sculpture to YouTube, April wakes up to find herself at the center of a viral sensation.

The sculpture, named Carl, is not an isolated incident; similar structures have appeared in cities around the world.

As April navigates her newfound fame, she must deal with the consequences on her relationships, safety, and identity.

The book delves into themes such as the impact of social media on fame, the culture of radicalization, and how society handles fear and uncertainty.
