"It is so hard to leave--until you leave. And then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world." 
 oh I liked this so much better than The Fault in our Stars. I am probably the only one out there who didn't enjoy The Fault in our Stars but I'm totally ok with that I found it cheesy and the characters so unrealistic to be in Highschool. 
 But we're not talking about that, this is about Paper Towns. I didn't love the book but it was good I think my main problem it being so... damn... slow... The first part (view spoiler)[when Margo and Quentin pulled those pranks (hide spoiler)] was good and then in went down hill from there. But... (of course there's a but) John Green is such a good writer and it I enjoyed the overall story as a whole, so 3.5 stars to you Paper Towns! 
 John Green writing is addictive, the story may not be my cup of tea and it may be so fucking slow but I just sit there and marvel about his writing, that nothing else seems to matter. I only, by the way read John Green because I like him and his Youtube channel, well no, I only continue to read his books after reading The Fault in our Stars and hating it (...k no, not hating it but feeling strongly meh... about it) because I like him and so I feel as if I owe him to read at least another one of his books. But obviously thats crazy since it's not like I know the guy. Then there's the reason that the movies coming out and I have banned myself from watching a movie without reading the book first (in exception to Mockingjay because I have given up completely on that series). 
 Margo is just an awesome person. And Quentin has always admired her since the day they found a dead guy in the park (actually). Margo always goes on these crazy adventures, and is just so much fun to be around, so when one day when she shows up by Quentin's window to take him for one of these adventures with him it's a shock to him, the girl everyone wants to be around coming to his window to get revenge on countless people-what? But the next day, she disappears and leaves an elaborate trail of clue to find Margo and Quentin discovers who she was all along. 
 "Here's what's not beautiful about it: from here, you can't see the rust or the cracked paint or whatever, but you can tell what the place really is. You can see how fake it all is. It's not even hard enough to be made out of plastic. It's a paper town. I mean, look at it, Q: look at all those culs-de-sac, those streets that turn in on themselves, all the houses that were built to fall apart. All those paper people living in their paper houses, burning the future to stay warm. All the paper kids drinking beer some bum bought for them at the paper convenience store. Everyone demented with the mania of owning things. All the things paper-thin and paper-frail. And all the people, too. I've lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters." 
 (Sorry for the long quote) 
 Anyhow I liked it, it wasn't cheesy and dramatic, it was real. I could relate so much to Margo. The need to get out and live-to be free-I don't view everything as paper, the complete opposite actually but I share the desire to get out and live. 
 This book has definitely made me excited to read more John Green in the future-and the movie which I think will be great-I think if he has more books like this I'll enjoy them immensely!
