         I am about half way through the book Paper Towns and I find it to be very interesting! To be honest I thought the book was getting a little boring after Margo went to Quentin's house. I felt like it was slow, but the more I read it started getting better and better.

        What I have read so far was that Quentin was in his room when he heard a knocking at his window... there was Margo standing there waiting for Quentin to open the window so they could talk. To Quentin Margo was a legend so when he saw Margo at his window he was in shock! He wasn't sure why Margo was really at his door so he began to talk to her. As a request she asked him to drive her around town to complete a list of tasks she needed to accomplish by the end of the night. Since Quentin is obsessed with Margo he agreed to this adventure.

        What I like about this book so far is that it shows the reader what Quentin and Margo's life was like when they were kids, and then it shows what is going on with their life now as teenagers. What I also like about this book is that it shows a lot of characterization within the text. By showing characterization it allows the reader to see what the characters really act like and what their personality is. I am looking forward to finishing this book to see what happens between Margo and Quentin.

         I am almost halfway through the book Paper Towns by John Green and I cannot put it down! I am really enjoying the plot to the story. What I have read so far is that Quentin is arguing with his friends because he told them he wasn't going to go to the Prom because he didn't have a date to go with. Quentin was jealous that his all time favorite crush Margo was going with another guy. Disappointed by Quentin decision, his friends try to set him up with a girl they think would be right for him.

    During the night Quentin is in his room when he hears a knock at his window. The person that was there was Margo. Margo the legend! Surprised to see her Quentin couldn't even believe that he was actually having a serious conversation with Margo! She came to him to ask him for help with something very important to her...What she asked Quentin to do was to have him drive her around town so she could complete a list of very important tasks by the end of the night....

         That was where I ended so far. I am very intrigued to see what the tasks are, and that is if Quentin actually agrees to driving her. My guess is that he will say yes, because to him Margo is a legend! I am enjoying this book a lot so I do not have many complaints. What I also really like about this book is that it really shows you the emotion of the characters. You can feel what the characters are feeling and I really like that in books. There are not many books that you can relate to how the character is feeling every once and a while.
