Paper Towns
John Green
Paper Towns is a YA novel about a boy named Quentin, who spends a magical night of adventure with his girl next door neighborhood crush Margo Roth Speigelman. When Margo runs away, Quentin runs around following the clues she left him trying to find her.
This book was good, but with reading it i felt as if I became a book snob. This book has topped the YA bestseller charts for months now, and I honestly can't see why. Margo has very counterculture ideas which are nice to see, and the way she talks about orlando as a "paper town" is also very interesting. This book is also extremely funny, which honestly saved it for me. I seem to think that way about most of Green's books, that the plot and characters are predictable and cliche but the books are so funny that it ends up raising the books rating in the end. So Overall, I gave this book a four out of five stars. It was good, but I have a lot of problems with it.(Which again, might just be me being a book snob.) I'd be happy to discuss this book with anyone in the comments though.
Thanks for reading another one of my reviews, I'll be back soon with more.
