Debbi in Texas Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 The book trailer is due next Tuesday so I have gotten serious about getting it done. It is on Paper Towns. One part of the assignment is to have relevant music. I do not listen to music that would fit this book, so kind of clueless. Anyone have music to suggest?

The Girls' Mom Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 My daughter suggested this: She also said to check out the movie soundrack. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SproutMamaK Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Given his obsession with her and how he tries to track her down once she disappears, maybe this? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harriet Vane Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Come Sail Away, by Styx It's old but so, so good and very apropos to the book. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SproutMamaK Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Can I also just add that I loved this book as fiction for actual young adults? I wasn't exactly heavy reading, lol, and some of the plot was contrived, but I loved the real life feel of it. Guys obssesses over girl, guy thinks girl is leaving him a trail of breadcrumbs so they can be together because her world MUST revolve around him.... guys discovers girl did nothing of the sort and kind of just wants him to leave her alone, and that other people do not exist as props for his hero fantasy. :lol: It's not the greatest love story of all time, but goodness knows that a lot of teens (and adults!) could use that particular burst of enlightenment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momling Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 What about something by Woody Guthrie (since his poster is the first clue)? Or I'll Fly away by Gillian Welsh? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have liked it more if she would have at least graduated. I feel like the book glorifies partying and dropping out of school. But I liked parts of it too. I liked Q better than Margo, though.
