Quentin finds out that Margo has a boyfriend! This does not make Quentin happy, but he also finds out that Margo's boyfriend cheated on her with Margo's best friend so the reason that they are going on this road trip is because Margo wants to get revenge on her boyfriend and Margo's best friend. Quentin ends up helping Margo with her revenge plan by embarrassing her boyfriend and her best friend and it works very well. But then in the end Margo still isn't happy that Quentin helped her with this plan.

A song that reminds me of this book so far is Better than revenge by Taylor swift. This song is about a girl finding out that her boyfriend cheated on them and all she wants to do is get revenge. This song is perfect for what is going on in this story right now because Margo is going through this hard stage of finding out about her boyfriend and all she can think about is revenge and to get this revenge on him she drags Quentin in to all of it.

A good quote from this song by Taylor swift would be "She should keep in mind There is nothing I do better than revenge" This is showing how Taylor is warning her boyfriend that she is very good at getting revenge and she will get revenge on him. This relates to my book because Margo wants to get revenge on her boyfriend and she is getting as much help as she can to make it a really good sabotage on him. Another quote would be "She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum" This is showing how the pain that Margo got from her boyfriend cheating on her. It hurts a lot for Margo to go through that and this song perfectly relates to Margo's pain that she is feeling on the inside in her heart.

The book that I am still reading is paper towns. I read chapter 1 and 2 of this book so far and a lot has happened! In the prologue you find out that Quentin and Margo used to be friends when they were nine. And when they were younger they saw something life changing, a dead body. Quentin got scared and backed away but Margo was interested and she got closer to the body. Eventually their parents found them and took them both home and called 911. Later that night Margo went to visit Quentin at his window. Margo told him that she did and investigation about the dead man and she found out who he was and that he killed himself because he was getting a divorce. Then she left through the window. That was the last time that Margo and Qeuntin talked for a long time. Ever since then Qeuntin has had a crush on Margo. Then in the next couple of chapters Margo comes back to Qeuntin's window just like old times and asks to borrow his car, of course Quentin says yes and he follows her in the car.

I think that this book has been very interesting so far and it has definatly kept me hooked to read the rest of the book! I think that even though a lot has happened already, there is still a lot more room for more stuff to happen. I think that the reason that Margo and Quentin is going on this trip is because of the dead body that they saw when they were nine years old. John Green wouldn't just have a big event in thier lives happen like that and not have it come up later on in the story. This dead man has to contribute to Margo's life somehow because she seem really interested in home as a child.
