Quentin Jacobsen has spent a lifetime loving the magnificent Margo Roth Spiegelman from afar. So when she cracks open a window and climbs back into his life--summoning him for an ingenious campaign of revenge--he follows.

AMAZING young adult book!
LOVED THIS BOOK!! this was the first book by john green that I've read that was fiction, i previously listened to "the anthroposcene reviewed" and have watched his history crash course videos in school so i wasn't sure if i would like this book or not but it was SO GOOD. i would definitely recommend this to more of an older teen audience or college age, maybe a little too mature for middle school but some could handle it and definitely too teenagery for older adults.
