Paper Towns by John Green is a book about a boy named Quentin Jacobsen and his best friends, Ben Starling, Radar, and Lacey, as they search for missing Margo Roth Spiegelman, who Q both lives next to and loves. After sneaking into his house, Margo and Q go out for a night of pranking her friends and ex-boyfriend, ending with breaking into Sea World and almost getting caught. But the next day, she drops off the face of the earth, leaving clues to the only person she can trust – Q. I thought this was an amazing book that I couldn’t set down, and definitely felt it was worth reading.

In this book, Quentin and his two friends are focusing on the disappearance of their classmate Margo. Quentin lived next door to her and has a crush on her. When they were both ten, they went to the park and saw a local man who committed suicide. Quentin was traumatized, but Margo was fascinated. She tried to find out why he did it. She got information from both the police and neighbors. Yet, where did she go? I liked this story because it was adventurous.
