Missing Margo

Paper Towns by John Green is a recent read completed with my school’s book club.

I’m normally a John Green fan, but this book wasn’t a favorite.

Quentin is infatuated by his former childhood friend and neighbor Margo. He admires her from afar, until she barges back into his life one night. She takes him on a revenge mission, in which she gets back at her cheating boyfriend and friend. Quentin feels they may be able to build on this experience, but she vanishes.

He becomes obsessed with finding her. Luckily, she has left little clues along the way. While his closest friends are caught up with typical senior year activities such as prom and parties, Quentin determines to find Margo.

When he finally figures out her location, a small group decide to skip graduation to go on a road trip from Florida to New York to find her. They have a specific amount of time to arrive before she will leave.

Once there, Quentin will finally find out if there could be something between them or not.
