Every John Green Book Ranked, Because Your Summer Needs All the YA Love

On the surface, Margo is the quintessential manic pixie dream girl, but as Paper Towns unfolds, both the story's protagonist, Q, and the reader begin to see people are more than tropes. When the enigmatic Margo disappears, Q and his friends set out to find her in a quest that's as funny as it is poignant. But it's in the actual finding of Margo where the book sings, because this unusual girl's life proves to be far more complex and sad than Q and his friends could ever imagine.
