But to me, it seems that she just caused Q to move from being trapped in one way to being trapped in her web. He got so caught up in her that he ignored all the other things in his life--friends, prom, graduation, parents. I think I was really annoyed at how selfish Margo was in the end. However, I did like the mystery and the trying to figure things out. But to answer your question, I think Margo thinks she succeeded, but as the reader, I don't think she succeeded.
I wholeheartedly agree with that.

The best part is that they both figured out they were in love with each other, but their love for each other allowed them to let them be exactly who they were!

Ditto! I agree and feel the same.Ashley3255 wrote:I honestly think Margo did nothing but take advantage of him. Sure, she did make Quentin become a more free-spirited, careless person, but she got him so caught up in her that she caused him to chase her half-way across the states. He risked so many things for her, only to find out that it wasn't even worth it. She made him believe she cared for him, when in reality, I believe she just wanted attention. I didn't really like Margo, I'm sorry. XD

I absolutely think she succeeded. After that night he definitely stepped out of his comfort zone and did things he never would have thought possible. And I love what csimmons032 said about taking more bravery to let her go. That's really poetic and beautiful.
