John Green’s writing pries open your eyes, wraps you in a warm blanket, and smashes all sense of time.

I loved the writing style of this book.  The adventure and mystery was so entertaining to read.  It felt a bit ridiculous but it was so enjoyable to read.  Though the ending wasn’t as satisfying as I was hoping for.

3.5

El libro se encuentra separado en 3 partes, en la primera conocemos a los amigos de Quentin y éste ayuda a Margo a realizar su plan de venganza. En la segunda parte, Margo se va de su casa dejando pistas, como siempre, para ver si la encuentran. Quentin y sus amigos intentarán encontrarla antes que sea demasiado tarde. En la última parte, descubrimos si Quentin encuentra a Margo a tiempo o no.

Grafica de una manera excelente el trauma de la adolescencia en el colegio (con todos sus actores) y lo importante y dificil que es ese paso que todos tenemos que dar en la vida cuando llega el último día de clases de la escuela secundaria, donde dejamos de ser chicos para empezar nuestra vida como adultos y todo lo que ello conlleva, aunque en ese momento no solemos darle esa importancia.

There are elements of beauty to this book, pure poetry, beautiful lessons on life, love and purpose. In saying that, there are also annoying, selfish characters, with flaws and mannerisms that are a bit too annoying to ignore.
