When I do read a book that is different and special or find a new author whose books are of that variety of awesome that I am always looking for (I am like a Knight in the quest for The Holy Grail) it makes me want to sing its praises to the world. The latter reads are special and don’t happen very often and that is a good thing too because then you don’t become accustomed, and therefore impervious to “special”. In fact, I spend quite a lot of my time reading and the majority of books I read are average reads, you know, those books that are good reads, interesting reads even, but not earth-shattering reads. I start with the understatement of the century:I read a lot. How did I get the book: Review copy from Bloomsbury Why did I read the book: After reading two of his books in the past few months, I can safely say that John Green is a new favourite. Trailing Margo’s disconnected path across the USA, the closer Q gets, the less sure he is of who he is looking for. Q soon learns that there are clues in her disappearance …and they are for him. After their all-nighter ends and a new day breaks, Q arrives at school to discover that Margo, always an enigma, has now become a mystery. So when she cracks open a window and climbs into his life – dressed like a ninja and summoning him for an ingenious campaign of revenge – he follows. Who is the real Margo? Quentin Jacobsen has spent a lifetime loving the magnificently adventurous Margo Roth Spiegelman from afar.
