Dissapointing

Q has more clues about were Margo could be by reading her clues and finding more of them. On the mini-mall Q finds even one more important clue as well in his house about Margo's location. He accidentally by doing somethings like throwing his pillow finds a clue and map, which Margo did not intend. In there was a map that showed many cities. But with a comment of anonymous person a which he thinks is Margo. So he is going on a trip New York to find Margo. But his friends are in the car waiting for him.  They finally get to the journey. Which is in the novel various chapter but its hours. Q has decided jobs for his three friends. Last they to New York and then  Algoe. Then they find Margo's car and finally her. They found that Margo did not intended in the reality for Q to find her. At last she offers Q if he wants to be with Margo travelling which he refuses. They got kissed and promise to keep in contact. The novel ends with Margo crying and Q kissing her. :(
John  Green!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am like this cat the end was disappointing you expect Margo and Q
to go again to Orlando and start a relation. :(

"Margo was not a miracle. She was not an adventure. She was not a fine and precious thing. She was a girl.” (Green 230).
In this quote from Paper Towns we can see the theme of  False Perceptions. Q sees Margo as one type of girl but he never really got to knew her well until that revenge night. After she left the school and got vanished. He discovers the true Margo. Then he realizes he got a false perception of her he got the completely wrong image of her it is not how he thought it will be, his imagination failed him. While Margo is Margo for herself. Also when Q discovered another new friend he had another vision of Margo. 

"I like the clues more than you" (Green 327) I liked how Radar and its nickname come with the reality. He is very good at seeing the truth of others he was the first one to discover the real Margo. But Q decided to ignore him. Green did great with this character because he can show us the great he is in finding the true and false of people. 

At last I finished the novel by John Green. Which I did enjoy a lot until the last part. Seriously always do not mostly like happy endings, in these one I hope a happy ending because it was really disappointing all those suspense created in the last part just only for Margo saying I am not coming back  and Q de3clining Margo's offer. I did really not like that.

Choosing by Color not by taste

Q & Margo went to the Suntrust Building were they look at the city and Margo talks about a awful city and a paper town city. (Were the novel got the name). Then they go to get revenge on someone Q choose that was Chuck. Last they went into Seaworld, enter illegal to there. At last they went to their houses. Margo did not come to schools which Q saw normal because she sometimes was absent to school. Margo disappear and a detective interrogates Q if he knows where Margo is. He saw something on Margo's room and discovered she let clues to find her. Some people say she is in New York. But Q with some of the clues he is trying to answer is going to look for her. Q finds more clues about Margo and he is getting to know better Margo and discovering she is not the girl Q thought of. Then with all those clues Q, Ben & Radar start to look for Margo and understand her clues.


The clues Margo left for Q is just like the
same us a treasure map Q's treasure will be find by
completing all the clues
"...people would want to be around someone because they’re pretty. It’s like picking your breakfast cereals based on color instead of taste." (Green 147).

I like how Green use the quote to explain how Q likes Margo because she is beautiful. He does not even knows well Margo but he still likes her. He does not know her inside her actions the way she is. Q sees just the outside the first layer which by him means beauty but does not know  how her second layer is her actions and way of being, just like that cereal because of the color not because of taste. Taste is how Margo acts and is while the colors are how she looks.

What Q sees.

What Margo is in reality.

"I’ve lived here for eighteen years and I have never once in my life come across anyone who cares about anything that matters." (Green 74)
Margo is good at finding flaws and not good things in all people but she uses this a weapon for herself that she can find flaws on everyone, but so people do not tell her nothing she hide her flaws. Then also we can make an relationship to one of the themes that is a false perception, Q had a 2D way of seeing Margo, not the complete Margo just the half of her his false perception. People always thinks to know people well while they finally know they discover is differently. Last the things that people do wrong on and Margo identifies them are her own flaws. 
That little flaw no one sees in people.

Last I really enjoying this novel Green is making excellent use of characterization in his characters specially on Q and Margo even Margo does not appear her clues for m are her kind of characterization. Last another theme was added as which can be friendship does not always look what you think.

Revenge comes with Karma?

Margo asked Q to take her to Publix and Wall-mart to buy her ingredients and materials for revenge against her boyfriend and two friends of her. They buy all the stuff and went to the house where her boyfriend was sleeping with a friend of Margo. Make a call to their parents to catch her with the boy in there. Later they got inside the house to take somethings and let a message, and took a picture of Margo's ex-boyfriend naked. Later went to  Margo's ex-boyfriend house which was a secure house because he is rich and throw a fish and break window and run away. At last at the house of a friend of Margo who did not tell her about her boyfriend. She and Q got a high active night doing revenge to those who deserve it.

Wow Margo is this character the same thing. Emily Thorne both are obsessed with revenge
and make plans to do revenge.


"I'M NOT PISSED AT YOU!' Margo shouted, and then punched the dashboard. (Green 43).

Margo and Q pass a hard time at the house because the father shoot a gun so he was a kind of crazy who shuts someone thinking is int their house. Returning to Margo her action for my point of view are bit of exaggerated she got the her revenge with her not more friend why she is mad she did everything right. Poor Q he is not for that life he is simple boy who likes a normal and calm life so also Margo actions with him should also address that  to respect him. Q talks a lot of Margo but we never actually see her motives or nothing just Q thinking. Every page Margo change her actions, more like a devil. Q does not know Margo not a bit.

Margo is the red devil we do not know her intentions never but someday she
will pay her crimes with society.
 When you say nasty things about people, you should never say the true ones... (Green 64).

I like this and think the author make an excellent use of words in the quote and illustrating this in real life. People always talk awful in the back of others but as humans that have respect we must never tell the truth of our intentions or thinking of that. When you talk wrong about someone in their back you are already hurting that person and telling the truth is worse. So just better lie rather that insulting that person. I relate this to karma I am a very scare person I do not like doing things that I am not supposed to because karma always makes a person pay.






At last I like this book it really good and also Green words in describing characters and scenes are great and makes you laugh of how he use them. Also the main themes I have seen until now are friendship and false perceptions of people of how Q saw Margo and how he meets the real her he got a big false perception of it.

Weird Actions

Quentin was a boy who lives in Florida and he describes that his biggest miracle was to live beside her love Margo a mysterious girl who she was friend with him for little them just become neighbors where they lived. Q is an boy with an ordinary life and follows a daily life routine that seems the same. Later he talks with his friends that are Radar he is called like this because he loves computers and a T.V series. Later his friend Ben Q's best friend who is now as Bloody Ben for and infection he had. There is an prom and his friends are going but not him. That same night Margo enters Q's bedroom and asks him to lend her his car and that he drives him. They go and start doing the plan of Margo but first they have to buy things at Publix and Walmart. With the money Margo take out from her parents account.

This was my first impression of the novel by the
name it sound weird.


While in the novel they were introducing Ben, Q and him are talking about prom and other things while Ben tells Q that a girl in his bus ask him if he is Bloody Ben.

"Margo's best friend, started a rumor the real reason he had blood in his urine was due to chronic..." (13 Green).

I ask my myself a question about Margo. Q says she was a cute and fine girl, she is normal and good seems to what Q describes. But Q's description is right because it seems not for me or he might be right. People often get with friends that are like them or like the way they are. But Margo's best friend looks like a bad person inventing false rumors about Ben which until now he is get bother because of it. What if Margo is like that or she is good we might think she is like that because of what she is going to do by night with the help of Q.

While Q's friend and him where talking about the prom and the dates of it Green's particular choice of words made a perfect little characterization for Q and how he is.

"Getting you a date for prom is so hard that the hypothetical idea itself is actually used to cut diamonds" (Green 16).

Green's choice in describing Q and the characterization for him looks great. It shows what his friends think of him according to dates. Later how he uses the the metaphor about cutting diamonds like Q is diamond and he impossible to cut him him to connect him to another half diamond. Or just is that he is a diamond now because he loves Margo, and he cannot be cut down into two because he does not finds his other half.

This is Q the diamond his friend tell him he
is that he cannot be cut in half.










While this Margo, the metaphor
like when the tow are together they can get connected


  








At last I like the novel, Green created a great story with Q and how he is shy and everything to Margo while Margo is all different. Later I think what is going to happen next is that Margo is planning something I think is against someone maybe his boyfriend because he mention him or maybe her parents who know as Q said she is mystery like the Riddler only she is not a villain.

The Right Thing

Melissa has now the demon after Heather died. She is acting very mysteriously and weird. Jane is is like weird with Cassie and she might know it because of what was the relation with her mother very confidential. Later Melissa tells Nick to help her find her book of shadows that is hidden on the woods because of the note she found hide from her mother. So Nick goes and help her to dig they found a big travelling bag that weight a lot. Melissa calls Cassie and Faye to help her break the spell in the lock. Cassie had dinner with her grandma that interrogated a lot to her and said that she expected her to be friends with Faye and Diana because her mother was friend of her mothers. Lastly she goes to help Melissa. Then Faye and Cassie see the bag that moved from the inside and ask Melissa what it is. They also called Adam and Diana to help them. After a while Melissa started to become more posses with the demon and was any more Melissa. Cassie decides to call her grandma for help, she then tells the truth to Jane and the two of them go to help them. Jane is a witch. The demon got out of Melissa and went to pass to Nick. The bag contained demons locked and The demon wanted to release them, Jane says that the only way to kill a demon is by drowning it or by burning it. They destroy all those demons. While Dawn and Charles are trying to locate the other five crystals with the red moon but they could not find them because the magic of the crystal was finished the plan they had with the circle was for them regain their magic again. Nick went and threat to kill Dawn if she did not help her, Dawn called to Charles to help her. Then Charles to get the demon out drown Nick but at the same time they killed Nick. Cassie discovered what happened sixteen years ago that the witch hunters try to make peace with the witches but was a tramp and the hunters set the boat on fire while some survive but some died Cassie saw an amulet that stop one of them to die she goes an looks for it. While Dawn and Charles know how to get their powers back but comes with a big price. Last the circle discovers the witch hunters are coming In here the novel ends I think it ended like this with an open ending for the sequel of the novel which it actually has one.


Seriously everyone believe that Melissa's mother hide the book
in something of this size.


This happens when Jane and Cassie are in the dinner and Jane thinks to tel her about her mother a bit
"Your mother keep a lot of things from me she didn't think I will understand you might feel the same way. When she was in trouble I did not see the signs. I never forgive myself" (Smith 224).

What I can really understand is the trust Cassie has to her friends and the circle while the circle is not her family. Later the trust she has on all of them even thought that Adam and Diana are good and always help her or beware of others. While Faye just uses her magic as if was a game like playing monopoly, and how she does not thinks of others. But she is loyal to them and trusts them considering that the actions of each individual are completely different. While on her house with her grandma she hides everything from her and does not have any confidence in talking her about anything. So then comes the theme of trust is Cassie confused on who to trust or she is stupid.

After Dawn and Charles killed the demon they get in the car to hide and talk about what they did while Charles feels regret Dawn is thankful she did not die. 

"It was the right thing to do".
"There is nothing right about that I killed a boy, a child. That is something that will never feel right".
"You save my life, thank you".
"But the price was the life of a child" (Smith 276-277)

So finally Charles is feeling bad what he is doing about the pain he is causing himself. To get what he wants he is crossing lines he does not respect life or child. They before said we don't kill innocent children. But now they still do it. Charles is feeling regret and sorrow. While Dawn was not like happy but was thankful she did not died but Nick did. So my question is how this two can live a normal live after their crimes to get what they need. they need to sacrifice the lives of others for fulfilling their own desires and wishes it is right. 

This Charles trying to drown the demon
but how demons die that way they
are not supposed to be immortal.



  

This are Dawn's actions she does not feel
wrong or cares for her actions
she just act to get what she wants
like Lady Tremaine with Cinderella. 



Last I liked the Novel it hold it secrets but it went to slow telling the story and some parts did get bored. The ending was good but it ended in climax in my opinion we can't know what is going to happen at last it hide things but it left open for the second novel. In theory I liked the book. The theme was trust and friendship because the novel is mostly about Cassie and her things with the circle. My dears readers and followers this the last time I write a blog of this novel. Hope you see me again.

Not what it Seems

So my predictions were true Header was alive but in a status of freeze she could not move or talk etc. Zachary last night had said that what Cassie's mother (Amelia) had done to Heather was worse than death. So Adam and Cassie on the morning went to the house of Heather's brother, then they learn she was like paralyzed, and Cassie told her "sorry" and she react and grab Cassie's hand. Heather's brother did not know what happened she had never done something like, then Adam and Cassie left. Every family of witches has a book a shadows the only available was Diana's book but Cassie had found the book that belong to her family. In there they saw the spell Amelia used. Later Adam and 

Being like this like
Header not comfortable.


Cassie were doing the potion to undo the spell and that Heather tells them what happen that night. Diana came and ask what they were doing she stop them and forbid them to break the spell. Then Faye decides to help her if Cassie let her see the book and Cassie accept. They go to the house of Header and try to undo it but it did not work. Later Header woke up and went directly to Cassie's house. Header explained to Cassie that were there is witches there can come some demons, and a demon had got inside her and her mother do that spell to help her stop the pain and to help her. Did not explain nothing about what happened 16 years ago. Diana explained Adam why she did not want to break the spell, because the sign Header had on the hand was a sign of demons. Header got fainted and woke up again but not us Header like a demon. She attacked Cassie then Faye. Nick at next door saw this and went running to help them with Melissa. Then Heather comes out of the house running and a car walk over her and killed her. Demons as Diana said can be trapped in insects or snakes. A weird insect like a slug came out of Heather and went to Melissa and it enter on her. Cassie discovers her mother did not do something bad instead it was good because it helped Heather.
This might had been Header in her attack.

While Adam and Cassie talked about Header. Cassie told Adam her mother could not do something like this because the mother she knew could not me capable of doing something like that. Then they found a way undo what her mother had done. I make a connection.

"Adam you saw her, if there is something we can do to help her we have too". (Smith 177)


When Cassie said this particular quote I thought of myself. Because she wanted to help her because of something wrong her mother had done. Because she wanted to undo what she did because that was wrong and wanted to know the truth about what happen. I connect this to my life because when I do something wrong I feel bad, miserable and want to do it better or help them. So I connect Cassie’s emotion of that moment to my emotions sometimes when you made a mistake and want to undo it. Even sometimes I feel like Cassie that she is worried about what her mother had done to Header. 

Diana told to Adam to not help Cassie undoing the spell because she thought it was dangerous, so Adam accept and stop helping Cassie. Then Cassie all furious start looking for a way to do it until Faye came and offer her help. 

"I thought you needed help".

"You are going to help me?"

"Sure, if you let me read your book" (Smith 186).

My question is why every person is like even in a book there are those type of people who always help other people but by a price they can do anything free. They have always to ask something in return. Why Faye is even like that to her she would had never to ask Cassie something in return after all the bad things she had done to the people and to her. Faye has a serious attitude problem because she owns Cassie that now she can control her powers and more. But no she can accept what is wrong with her and the problems she has with them. To conclude Faye is a girl with some serious problems in my way of seeing she is a witch but does not mean she owe many to Cassie and to accept that she has problems, and for God's sake stop asking things in return. 

My next blog is going to be last one I made for this novel. So the last I expect to be the best of the novel like the juicy part of a fruit even I do not like fruits. Well on the last part i think the members will do again what happen 16 years ago. Last I want to talk about the theme of the novel and I think is TRUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Revenge Matters?

Now that the Circle is bounded the members can do magic only if they are with other member and can make more magic if more members are, the six of them. For Faye is hard having no magic because she use every single day and moment magic. Then Sally is fine just with a cast o the feet, but she tells Cassie that she had some memories that she saw Faye with her look and then she was on the rocks. Cassie was on the Coffee Shop and Zachary a men that new her mother appeared. Then he start talking about her mother and that, finally he said to her that he knew she is a witch. Then he grabbed her and did not let her go, for luck Diana was there and help Cassie get away. On the abandon house the Cassie and Diana make a immediate reunion to talk about what happened. Sally talked to Cassie telling her that she had not sign up for any extras for the school, Cassie then sign up for helping the dance of tomorrow. Charles and Dawn discover that they bounded the circle so they decided to move quicker and to be beware of Zachary. Then Charles ask to Diana if she was fine because of what happened with Zachary, she tell her was all right but she ask why did he spend so much time with Dawn. Charles lied to her telling that they were dating. The five members went to the ball while Faye stayed to practice magic alone. Then Zachary came where Faye was and tried to kill her, he said that he cannot let that happened again just like 16 years ago: Faye could escape and ran to the ball. On the ball the feelings that Cassie has for Adam grow. Faye got there, and the 6 members start investigating Zachary. Charles goes to talk to Zachary to stop, while we discover that he had a girlfriend called Heather and it was friend with Cassie's mother. Then Zachary said the only way to stop them is to kill one of the members and was going to the ball to kill one of them. Melissa and Nick got a fight, then Faye goes and talk to him about treating her well because Melissa thinks they got a good relationship. Zachary gets to ball and tries to kill Cassie but the other members stop Zachary from killing Cassie. The group learns that Zachary wants revenge on them because her girlfriend died on the accident sixteen years ago, because of the fault of the parents. Charles and Dawn came and get Zachary, the members were save. Dawn and Charles take Zachary and make him a locator spell to know where he is, and threat him to kill him if get near to one of the members.
So the location spell is something like
a GPS to locate someone.


While Adam and Diana investigated what happened with Zachary in the student records they find that Header was Zachary's girlfriend and died the night of the accident sixteen years ago, Header died in the boat among other of the parents of the members of Circle.

"That's the fire that killed our parents, among the victims was Header".

"Header died too on the accident"

This sign in this city
should appear no new
people.
"He is blaming on what happen to Header to our parents; but he is taking it down on us". (Smith 120)

So Zachary wants to avenge Heater's death, it was the fault of their parents. But as all people in movies and novels they want to avenge the death of a love one by killing a love one of them. Which is far ridiculously. Everyone wants revenge sometime but it is not even. So Zachary's actions are wrong because he is taken revenge even not with the killers of Heather, he is down with six innocent children who have nothing to do with them. So his actions are a bit dramatic in my opinion but you can't make someone suffer because you suffer. Yes the actions of last generation of the circle was wrong but does not mean that you need to have revenge.


While Diana and Faye talked about the circle and its limitations now. Diana send Adam to talk to Cassie if she is fine. While Adam and Cassie are talking are feeling stronger feelings about them. Faye tells Diana to be aware that she can loose Adam. But she does not care much.


"Seriously Diana you are two minutes away from loosing him".

"I rather keep safe the Circle and the town". (Smith 148).


Diana's actions confused me a little. So we know Diana she is the leader of the group, tried to help Cassie when she came here an to accept who she is. Also she is not like Faye selfish, she thinks in the Circle that's why I think she is good and care for others. Also she is accepting to give up Adam for the safe of the Circle and the town which is not selfish and sacrificing her happiness for the save of others. That is what confused me because sacrificing love and happiness for others is very weird.

At last for the next chapters I think that Cassie's Grandmother is not going to know nothing about the circle. Dawn and Charles are going to try to make possible the plan which I think is getting back magic for them while Adam and Diana will end their relation and start a new one as only friends. I think that Heather may not be death just missing because after the accident sixteen years ago it will not be nice to know it just did not kill one of the parents but also other people. Cassie will try to get more power because of what her mother told her.
