Paper Towns
By: John Green
Recomendation
I would recommend this book if you like to read chick flicks. This book is very addicting once you start reading it. Also, it's easy to relate to because a lot of teenagers understand how Margo is feeling. This is a good book if you want a little bit of a chick flick but also an adventurous book.

"All those paper people in their paper houses burning the future to stay warm. All the paper kids drinking beer that some bum bought for them at the paper convenience store. Everyone demented with the mania of owning things paper thin and paper frail. And all the people, too."
"It is so hard to leave until you leave. And then it is the easiest goddamned thing in the world."
"At some point, you gotta stop looking up at the sky, or one of these days you'll look back down and realize that you floated away, too."
