Paper Towns 1-100

Quentin is a slightly nerdy high school senior who’s not too high up in the high school food chain. However, ever since he was little, he’s been in love with the most popular girl in school, and his next door neighbor, Margo Roth Spiegelman. One night, she knocks on his window at about midnight dressed in all black and wearing black face paint. She tells him that she’s going on a mission and she’s chosen him to help her out. Even though it’s a school night, he can’t resist. That night, they go around town completing her eleven-part revenge scheme. She gets revenge on her ex-boyfriend Jase for cheating on her. She gets revenge on her ex-best friend Becca for sleeping with Jase. She gets revenge on her “friend” Lacey who’s never been a very good friend. She also tells Quentin that he can choose someone to get revenge on, and he chooses Chuck Parson, a guy who had picked on him for as long as he could remember. After that, they go break in to Sea World just for the fun of it. They have an amazing night together, and Quentin falls even more in love with Margo. Quentin went to school the next day after about only half an hour of sleep, and barely made it through the day awake. Margo, however, didn’t show up at school for the next two or three days. People started to talk, because she was basically the “queen of the school.” She’s the one who kept the bullies in line, and since she was gone, some of the school jerks, like her ex-boyfriend Jase started to terrorize the school. Quentin got them to stop by black-mailing Jase about the night he and Margo got revenge on him. The next morning, when Quentin wakes up, there is a detective in their living room asking questions about Margo because her parents filed a missing person report for her.
