I always start these reviews with just a couple of random thoughts I want to share, but I never know how to string them together, so...I'm just going to spill out all these thoughts. Try to keep up? (and I ain't going in order, peeps)
1. That part where Radar tells Q to accept that Ben is not Q, and Ben needs to accept that Q is not Ben, either?? WOAH. LIKE WOAH. And I keep catching myself judging my acquaintance-people, then realizing I need to take Radar's advice. Seriously.
2. (view spoiler)
3. Margo's description of Paper Towns/Paper People is seriously mind-blowing. Much like #1.
4. Q was such an awesome protagonist! His voice, actions, how Radar, Ben, and Lacey all are such awesome friends that they (view spoiler) is really...cool.
5. I love how, in the end, Lacey turns out to be much deeper and better of a person than we originally thought. Or maybe she just grew, after sharing a van with 3 boys on a road trip to find their "lost/missing" eccentricity of a "friend" who (view spoiler)...?
6. Margo's bad-buttedness (yep, being all appropriate and censored/whatever. yay!) was, to say the least, a bit unrealistic, but it was also so...bad-butted that I had to love it. Like, seriously? Gross fish everywhere, eyebrow-hair-removal, FREAKING BREAKING INTO SEAWORLD WHATWHATWHAT.
7. I can't believe John Green integrated Walt Whitman's "Leaves of Grass" so beautifully into Paper Towns!! And the detective going all poetic/metaphoric was nice. Odd, but nice.
I'm surprised at how "little" I had to gush about in this review, considering how much I've thought obsessed over this book since finishing it. It seems very sheeple of me, since everyone has been raving about John Green's books lately. But it's true!
