Quentin continues the endless search for Margo. He found an abandoned mini mall where she stayed but he missed prom while looking for her. I can connect to Paper Towns because I too have looked for something.

He was even willing to travel to New York because there were rumors Margo might be there. He is willing to do anything to find Margo which proves his determination even after many failed attempts.

He is determined to find Margo. Quentin has looked over the poem she highlighted hundreds of times trying to figure out what it could mean. Also, he ditched school ruining his perfect attendance to go looking for her. He knocked down walls and doors, went through smelly and creepy places, and traveled an hour to look for her.

Q is looking around for clues that Margo left, but he has to put them together. He finally found an address of her whereabouts but it is an abandoned town with nothing there except a vacant mall. Now, the wild goose chase continues with no end in sight. Quentin has shown determination throughout the book.

Margo and Q broke into Sea World, and they also broke into Q's enemies house for some payback. They then finished their 11 things to do that night but Margo wasn't at school the next day. People just assumed she was on another one of her adventures. Ben, Q's best friend, isn't a very likable character. He usually makes somewhat perverted jokes. Also, he acts likes he is better than everyone and knows everything.

The conflicts haven't been very deep and no one figured out it was Margo that vandalized their houses so the consequences haven't been revealed yet if they ever do happen.
