There's a movie?!?! What!?!?amybo82 wrote:I recently saw the theatrical trailer for the movie, and it looked pretty interesting! I'm excited to see it to compare it to the book.
Well, I guess I will see it in about 5 years when it finally comes to Japan. Straight to rental.

In my opinion Paper Towns is the most exciting book written by John Green, even though there is a dull period between the actual finding of Margo and figuring out she was gone. I honestly enjoyed all the characters in the book even though Margo rubbed me the wrong way in the beginning and honestly who chases after a girl who was basically already gone in the first place? I guess what I love about this book is the fact I can relate. Unlike TFIOS, I don't struggle with cancer, but like Margo if I could leave tomorrow I would, but Im not that ballsy. This book was very well written, you can tell by the immense detail given about every place Quentin traveled and the thoughts going through his head. I would recommend this book to any teenage girl who love John Green books of course. I would also recommend this to anyone who loves more of an adventure romance book, this isn't the typical "meet a boy, something goes wrong, problem solved, happy ending" this book takes you on an actual adventure.

Margo reminds me of Joey in Dawson’s Creek, especially the ‘deep’ part of her character (i.e. poetry, vinyl records, worn-out copy of The Outsiders). However, I also find Margo to be a bit more selfish – main reason why I have never grown to like her character.
I do like the scenes where Radar, Ben and Q are all together. Their bantering before and after class were especially funny. I know I am in a minority here, but I find the scenes with Margo and Q to be the least interesting of all.
