Paper Towns by John Green
4.0
Surprisingly, I actually really liked this book. Margo is made out to be larger than life, but in reality she's just a girl who constantly wanted to disappear. Quinton needs to feel something and experience life, and Margo manages to force him into that. I like the search for Margo, following the clues she leaves behind. I found the mystery of what happened to her and who she is very interesting. The characters besides Margo and Q are not fleshed out well, but they all do a good job in supporting the story, which is their purposes. The road trip section was fun.
This is my second John Green book, and after wanting to throw Looking for Alaska across the bedroom, I never intended to read another. I made the right choice, though, because Paper Towns is thought provoking with a lot of metaphors and laugh-out-loud funny. As a lighter read but still with weight, I actually recommend this book as a John Green that won't necessarily make you cry.
