“Nothing ever happens like you imagine it will.�
Well, I have to say, and please don’t hate me, that was a lot better than The Fault in Our Stars! I mean A LOT BETTER!
I liked Quentin in this story, and it was noble the way he was so intent on finding Margo, alive, or dead or somewhere in-between. I did wonder what he was doing at times, he should have been studying, he should have been attending graduation, he should have been doing a lot of things, but instead he was so obsessed with finding Margo! I mean this girl really got to him, and he proved what a loyal, caring person he really was.
The storyline in this was split into three parts � the first part was Margo putting a very interesting plan into action, and allowed us to get to know her a bit. The second part was Quentin trying to work out where Margo had gone, and the third part was (view spoiler)
Anyway, I understand what people mean when they say that this book is a bit deeper than it seems on the surface, and I have to say that I liked the mystery, I thought the story was well-constructed, and that last part was really quite gripping!
And that ending! I liked it. Even though the very end made me wonder if they would change their minds? I liked it.
So thanks to everyone that voted this to the number 1 spot on out Group Buddy Read Listopia List! I don’t think I’d have read this if it wasn’t for you �

This is just what I thought reading the book. And I agree, Paper towns is way better than TFIOS.

I thought this one was way better than The Fault in Our Stars too. I would recommend this one over TFIOS.
OOOOOh! You have me intrigued at the idea of it being better than TFIOS! Since I seriously loved that book, this one has sat on my shelf a while, I think you have finally pushed me to read it! :D Thanks!
Yes! I liked this better than the fault in our stars.
ya i read this in one sitting, but i dragged and dragged on with the fault in our stars
I sure agree with you about this being way better than Fault in our Stars! I loved this book. Great review!
