Quentin, a high-school senior in Orlando, spends one memorable night helping Margo Roth Spiegelman, the girl next door, execute a plan of pranks and revenge. At school the next day she's gone. Margo has done this before, but this time she left clues: a poster, a few lines of Whitman's Song of Myself, a map with a pin. Q and his friends Ben and Radar piece together her path, which leads them over a weekend drive to a place that is not on any official map.
It's a good choice for fans of young-adult mysteries who also want a story about growing up and the danger of seeing someone as a prize rather than a person.
Inward-looking, contemplative and thought-provoking; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Empathetic Explorer. Which reader are you?
