Review: Paper Towns

Synopsis:

At that time they played together and cycled through the neighborhood, but today she is a beautiful and popular girl in school and he Is just another nerd in her class One night, Margo invades Quentin's life through her bedroom window, her face painted and dressed as a ninja, summoning him to be part of an ingenious revenge plan.And he, As soon as the night of adventure is over and a new day begins, Q goes to school, hopeful that everything will change after that dawn and she will decide to approach him. In the next, or the next.
When she discovers that her whereabouts are now a mystery, Quentin soon finds clues left by her and begins to follow them. Driven toward a tortuous path, the more Q approaches Margo, the more he distances himself from the image of the girl he thought he knew. "




The book contains slang and dialogue from the day to day of teenagers that make you identify quickly with the characters!

The characters created by John, contain features that are impossible not to notice and compare with each other. One of the best features is the strong personality in the main girl of the book and the fact that there is a void in each of the characters.

Just like the characters, the book also contains very strong features that do not go unnoticed, like the tragic endings that make you cry and try to conform.

Paper Towns, does not shy away from John Green's standards, it's a thrilling book that makes you laugh, get emotional, miss the characters when you're not reading, and obviously be surprised in the end.

"Here is what is not pretty in all this: from here you can not see the dust or the paint cracking or whatever, but you can see what this place is for real. You can see how much is false. It is neither consistent enough to be made of plastic. It's a paper city. "- Page 68.

The book contains a completely enthralling and funny adventure. Fortunately, the book does not end with death, I confess I did not expect that ending but I loved it anyway. I particularly liked Paper Towns more than The Fault In Our Stars.


I hope you enjoyed it, kisses.
