Independent Reading: Paper Towns by John Green

Margo Roth Spiegelman is one of the main characters in this piece of text, but she is not psychically in the book for most of it, I'm wondering what would happen if Margo was in the book more. Not exactly that she was where everyone else was, interacting with them, no. I'm just wondering if I would've taken the book a different way and thought about it differently if maybe Margo's view was offered more throughout the book. I think it would have made the book a lot less mysterious. The whole book nobody knows where Margo is and that's what makes it exciting. if we were getting updates on her I don't know if I can say the book would have been as good. The whole book I thought that Margo wanted Quentin to find her, that she had left clues so that somebody would eventually find her. But when Q does find her, she doesn't respond in a very pleasing manner. "She spins around and grabs a fistful of my shirt and shouts into my face, "Where do you g I think it could be interesting to see into Margo's head and to see what she was thinking, but I think that the author didn't do that to almost give her character more character. Margo is made out to be a very special and different individual in this text. She acts normal, but only the reader and Quentin and some of the other main characters know, or try to know, her true self. I feel like Margo definitely thinks differently than others. Her mind goes deeper than most people are willing to try. I like that, though, it makes for a better character in my opinion.
