Paper Towns by John Green is a wonderful non-fiction book. This book's theme is to go after the dreams you have in life, no matter what happens or what is left behind. In this book, a teenage girl named Margo has a the dream to travel paper towns, so she has left her home town to see all the paper towns in the United States. In the book, one of Margo's young childhood friends tries to find her. He goes everywhere eh think she will be. He tried to pick up on the clues she left behind to find her. He ends up leaving and missing everything to go find her. I found this book very enjoyable. I watched the movie and I think that the book is way better. It gives more detail to the mission and it take Q a lot longer to find Margo, which made me get into the book even more. I loved this book and I recommend it to everyone. I think you will enjoy it just as much as I did.

I am an English Literature teacher, so I always like to have some good resources when I look through books and wonder about the next school year for my high schoolers. After reading through this helpful book, I had a lot of ideas for my class. As a John Green fan, I always like how well he connects his readers to the teenage mindset, something that I think a lot of adults forget and deride too often. I thought this book really helped bring to light some of his more subtle metaphors, symbols, and motifs. I highly recommend it to anyone who has read (or would even like to read) Green's "Paper Towns."

Sidekick to Memory Man.. Nice book.

I first came across this book as I was prowling through Amazon kindle bookshelves in desperate search of something to read. (My own shelves' content had been thoroughly read several times over.) I had already read other books of this kind but never read John Green book before so I was eager to open this newest book and see what it had to offer me. Three hours later, I lifted my head dizzily and realized I had read through dinner, not paying any heed to my mother's calls, or my stomach's grumbles. Wonderingly, I got up and smiled.Paper Towns: by John Green is an amazing novel and would be good for almost anyone to read.Recommended

This young adult book kept my interest all the way through. I enjoyed the characters and the story, although I doubt many teens actually think the way these did. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading this genre.

I think this is a tween book...pretty overrated for an adult.

[Dada · Rating 2 out of 5]

average story, suitable for teenager readers, not so special.

[Joslyne C. · Rating 3 out of 5]

Loved 95% of this book . . . the last 5% was disappointing.

Using wonderful language, John Green again takes the reader on a journey, this time to 'paper towns'. At times funny, the story of teenagers in their senior year tugs at the heartstrings.
