Monday Morning Book Review--Paper Towns

Paper Towns by John Green--One month before graduation Quentin embarks on an adventure with next door neighbor Margo Roth Spiegelman. The next day Margo disappears and Quentin is on a quest to solve the mystery of her disappearance.

John Green has many fans and often appears on booklists for great reads. After reading two of his books, I must admit I don't completely understand the draw. His teenage male protaganists are girl-obsessed and enjoy the thrill of the unattainable girl...hmm could it be that I'm not a teenage boy that's why I don't get it? Try reading one for yourself, he's got a great reputation and my taste may not be yours.
