From the bestselling author of The Fault in our Stars and Looking for Alaska, soon to be a major TV series
Quentin Jacobsen has always loved Margo Roth Spiegelman, for Margo (and her adventures) are the stuff of legend at their high school. So when she one day climbs through his window and summons him on an all-night road trip of revenge he cannot help but follow.
But the next day Margo doesn't come to school and a week later she is still missing. Q soon learns that there are clues in her disappearance . . . and they are for him. But as he gets deeper into the mystery - culminating in another awesome road trip across America - he becomes less sure of who and what he is looking for.
Masterfully written by John Green, this is a thoughtful, insightful and hilarious coming-of-age story.
Imagine a hybrid of Scooby Doo and The Catcher in the Rye and you get a little of this novel's flavour
Green's prose is astounding - from hilarious, hyperintellectual trash talk and shtick, to complex philosophising, to devastating observation and truths. He nails it - exactly how a thing feels, looks, affects - page after page
Genuine - and genuinely funny - dialogue, a satisfyingly tangled but not unbelievable mystery and delightful secondary characters
