The main characters, Quentin and Margo are described as opposites compared to one another. For example, Margo is more of an adventurous person and is very social. Quentin has few friends and doesn't like taking many risks. Margo rebels against her parents strict image they have of her.
Margo's persona is more rebellious than the rest of the characters. A conversation between Quentin and Margo on page 26 says, "I swear to God that you will not be asked to commit a felony." This quote shows that since Quentin knows about what Margo is capable of and how she likes getting in trouble, he is nervous of what's to come. Margo's description is not only shown in the author's words but also shown in how the characters react to her.
Quentin is more laid back and enjoys being bored. "That's how you know you're having fun," Margo said. But it didn't feel like fun; it felt like a heart attack." This quote is showing that Margo's antics are new to Quentin and he isn't sure what he's getting himself into. Clearly this shows that Quentin is more of a person to follow the rules and not get in trouble but because of the effect Margo has on him, he does the opposite of what he follows.
