Paper Towns
Part 2

As days pass there is no sign of Margo. With graduation right around the corner and their senior prom, it becomes out of the norm for her to be gone this long. Q begins to obsess over any clues he believes that were left for him, with his friends support right behind him. Lacey one of Margo's best friend and the school hottie begins to help the group with any information she can provide about her disappearance. She goes on to say that two days before she left, Margo was claiming that New York was the only place a human can live a half decent life.  Hey, but his best friend Ben got a date with Lacey to prom. He doesn't mind talking about prom for hours, so it works out for both of them.

The boys search her room a second time thinking that a song she circled on a record could have been a clue. The song talks about talking the door off the hinges, so they literally did that. No more than just a door with difficult hinges, they proceed to keep looking through all her books and records that no one knew she had. Time crunching because of her parents getting home soon, Q and the boys log into her computer to see if there is any information leading to her. (Radar is a computer nerd and can hack into anything.)

You can sense Q getting frustrated (as would I,) and really getting worried. He seems to feel like he really owes it to Margo to find her because she did show him going outside your routine can be actually fun and exciting. Q is one of those people that doesn't find being bored all that boring. The way he is rereading the book on her night stand over and over again is really showing that he feels like she really did leave him clues only he could figure out. Seeing as she always leaves clues for her parents, and they claim seem to go nowhere and it's just a never ending cycle. This is what I am not enjoying so far, he has become so obsessive over a girl who didn't talk to him for four years through high school, the kid can do better.
