when he met Margo, she flipped his whole world around. When G met Anna in the library, she was a little mysterious. She was into dead people or living people that she wished dead. She wrote obituaries for everyone in town, even those still living. Likewise, Margo was also fascinated with dead people. She wanted know them or know about them and what there life was like before they died. ADD ONE MORE TOPIC!!!!!!! There are also important differences between the characters in As Simple As Snow and Paper Towns like the kinds of clothes they wore or the friends they chose. Anna was into black. She wore black everyday. Black shoes, black outfit, and a group of friends the same way however Margo was a regular girl with regular friends. She dressed the same as everyone else and had nice friends but she also had some deep secrets. G’s best friend Carl was different. Carl was only known for selling drugs to everyone around school. He even kept a well thought out report of everyone he ever sold to. Selling his drugs made him at least a little popular and everyone knew him. Q’s best friend Ben was also a little popular just not in a good way. Ben was known for being “Bloody Ben” because he had a kidney infection that caused him to have bloody urine. However he was still a loyal guy helping out Q when his girlfriend disappeared. ADD ONE MORE TOPIC!!!!!!!!! There were many similarities between the major events in As Simple As Snow and Paper Towns like what happened to the girls in the middle of the night and how it was handled. As for Anna, she left in the middle of the night with no warning. She got everything together and then in the middle of the night, she was gone. Margos story was the same way. Margo packed up in the middle of the night and told nobody where she was going. Maybe she was dead, maybe she was kidnapped, or did she just run away? Whenever Anna went missing, G was immediately out to find her. They were in love and if she was out there somewhere, she wouldn't want to know that he had gave up on her so fast. He did everything he could to find his girlfriend as well as Q where when Margo went missing he did everything he could to find her. After Anna was missing, G got a map leading to the valentine's day box in the middle of the woods. In the box, G found letters and valentines day cards from Anna. That was a real clue from Anna and I think it gave him hope that she was still alive because the box was there after she went missing. Whenever Margo went missing, Q also started finding clues. Q found his first clue in his bedroom door jam and it was a note from Margo saying, “You will go to the Paper Towns and never come back.” Margo and Anna each went missing leaving behind different clues either hoping to be found or just to get away. There were also many differences in the main events at the same time like who helped them find the one they loved, what games they liked to play, and even if they wanted to be found or just left alone.
When Anna went missing G left his hometown to go find her himself. Carl didn't even consider asking him if he should come, however in Paper Towns, whenever Margo went missing, Q was going out to find her and then Ben and Radar offered to go with him even with prom on the line they still risked their time to help out there best friend. Anna took G on a wild goosechase. Before she went missing, Anna played a lot of games. She was mysterious and she made G do things just for the fun of it and keeping secrets from him that could've hurt her like the night in the car with Bryce Druitt and there were two different stories between the both of them each of them blaming the accident on eachother. On the other hand, Margo only left behind clues because she wanted people to know that she was okay and she didn't want to be found.Margo needed to figure out who she was somewhere else around people that she didn't already know. Anna and G had created a secret code, “as simple as snow”. If they ever got seperated than they could use the secret code to find eachother even whenever they werent together bu twhenever Margo went missing, she didnt need a code becaus she ddnt think that people were ever going to look for her. Anna wanted to be found and nobody will ever know if she was found but then Margo didnt even want to be found and she was
anyway.
