The boy Quentin has been infatuated with the neighbor girl Margot since she was a child, because of her mystery and maverick. One night in high school, Margot disappears after Quentin's unexpected pairing with Margot has done a series of crazy things in his life. Accompanied by his friends, he embarks on an adventurous road trip by stripping away layers of clues he thinks Margot has left him. The ending of the story is that Margot is indeed in the paper town (paper town), but everything does not seem to be what Quentin thought. The clues left by the so-called girl are just the marks left by the girl in the process of looking for the paper weight. The girl doesn't even know who she is and what she wants to do, so naturally she doesn't need a boy to love her.
Indeed, I thought Margo, Quentin and the lads had done too many firsts in their step-by-step lives. The first time I went to a party, the first time I didn't go home, the first time I drove more than 20 hours from Orlando to upstate New York. . . The "crazy things" made by being attracted to Margot have enriched Quentin's little remaining high school career, and he seems to have grown, but growth has been accompanied by tingling and sobering realities. He has always been crazy for the people he thinks are important, but the real important friends are the people who don't ask for return and pay for his madness. Maybe Margo never regarded him as an important person, but after being betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend, she pulled a simple boy to realize her revenge and walked away happily.
At the station at the end of the story, Margot said to Quentin: 'You can stay with me' and Quentin said: 'That's what I used to hear a thousand times in my dreams, but now, I'm leaving At this moment, who had always just tried to understand Margot but ignored himself, he decided to see himself clearly and see what was precious to him.
Margot is a special girl who thinks that the town she lives in is It's a "paper town" where houses are made of paper, and people are also made of paper. People have no feelings and don't care about what is important. Here, she lost herself. So she decided to go to the wiki in upstate New York to mention She arrived in a town with a population of zero, and became the first person to be recorded in the town. Although she didn't know what she wanted, there, she could escape from false interpersonal relationships, read and think as much as she liked, Gain peace of mind. She has no plans and looks forward to what will happen to her next.
Everyone's life is different, whether it's Quentin's desire to go to college, study oncology, get a medical degree, get married, have children, or Margot is still exploring her unknown life, life is not good or bad, you can still be persistent You are crazy about the things you think are important, but please don't ignore the people around you who cherish you who are willing to be crazy with you. Then, go on with your wonderful life no matter what.

Paper Towns quotes

  • Quentin Jacobsen: And for Margo? I heard someone say she was in the resurrection of a play on Broadway. I heard another person say she was giving surfing lessons off the coast of the Bahamas. But I stopped listening to those stories. Because whatever Margo is doing, wherever she is now, I'm sure it's something special. But hey... That's her story to tell.

  • Quentin Jacobsen: What a treacherous thing it is to believe that a person is more than a person. Margo was not a miracle. She was not an adventurer. She was not some fine, precious thing. She was a girl. It took me a long time to realize how wrong I was...
