I finished the book, Paper Towns, this week. It was amazing and the ending tricked me up a little. I did not expect it to end the way it did at all, but I don't want to ruin it for you. I enjoyed this book more than The Fault in Our Stars because of the way it was written. Also, I didn't really know what was going to happen in this book, giving me an incentive to read it quicker.
The main character, Q, reminded me of the song, Smile, by Uncle Kracker. His reaction to everything Margo did reminded me of the chorus of this song. I attached the entire song in the link below:

The chorus is:
You make me smile like the sun,
Fall outta bed
Sing like a bird,
Dizzy in my head
Spin like a record,
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool,
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold,
Buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Oh, you make me smile
This reminds me of Q and his relationship with Margo because everything she does makes him happy and smile.
The next book I am going to read is the sequel to If I Stay, by Gayle Forman, There She Went. I have already read the first book and seen the movie. I am excited to read the next book and see if what I think happened will happen in the book.
Wow! Comparing one of the characters to a song is a brilliant idea that I will definitely start to utilize in my upcoming blog posts. Even though some people may not have read the book or nesasarilly know what it's about, referring to that popular song really helps give your readers insight into the character's personality. Great job!
