I have seen the trailer for this movie which got me interested in reading the book. Reading what the book is about got me even more excited. I hope to read it very soon!!

I've read this book it's kinda strange but funny at the same time! 😌

The book Paper Towns is book about adventure and mystery that includes twists and turns along the way that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Paper Towns is written by John Green and takes place in Orlando, Florida. The book is about a boy and a girl that are neighbors named Quentin and Margo and they are near the end of their senior year of high school. Margo has always loved going on adventures and solving mysteries, but Quentin not so much. Until, one night Margo takes him on an adventure. The next day Margo all of a sudden runs away and nobody knows where she is. Quentin decides to take the matters into his own hands and decides it's his job to find Margo. Using only the few clues Margo had left behind will Quentin be able to find Margo? The protagonist in this book is Quentin because he wants to find and save Margo and the antagonist is Margo, not because she is bad or mean, but because her actions of running away causes a conflict affecting Quentin. To anyone who loves amazing adventures and solving mysteries then this book is for you and I highly recommend it!

I love this book the movie is almost exactly like the book

This book was amazing!!! It has every single genre all mixed into one. I love both Margo, and Quentin. I definitely recommend this

Paper Towns by John Green seems like a romance story, but it is actually a mystery story mixed with some action, romance, and literature. Margo and Quentin have been neighbors since they were little, but they live in 2 different worlds. While Margo is the queen of their high school, Quentin is really unpopular and was kind of considered a geek. But one night, things changed, just when Quentin has hope to know Margo better, she disappears. This story is about how Quentin and his friends uses different clues Margo has left to find where she is, and how Quentin started to discover who Margo really is and how much he loved her. One of my favorite quotes from this book, " That's always seemed so ridiculous to me, that people want to be around someone because they're pretty. It's like picking your breakfeast cereals based on color instead of taste." In today's world, people always judge you by your appearance, instead of your inner heart. I would definitely recommend this to everyone, the characters, especially Margo, will let you think more and more about yourself and about this world, maybe because you're living in a paper town, too

I love this book so much! I swear it is my most favorite book of all time! I have read a ton of books and this one HAS to be my favorite! I haven't seen the movie yet, but I guess it's different from the book. I deffinatly recommend this book.

This book sounds amazing
