Looking for Alaska

Looking for Alaska
by John Green






Rating: 4 stars

Genre: Young Adult, Contemporary, Realistic Fiction



Synopsis:  Miles "Pudge" Halter's whole existence has been one big nonevent, and his obsession with famous last words has only made him crave the "Great Perhaps" (François Rabelais, poet) even more. He heads off to the sometimes crazy, possibly unstable, and anything-but-boring world of Culver Creek Boarding School, and his life becomes the opposite of safe. Because down the hall is Alaska Young. The gorgeous, clever, funny, sexy, self-destructive, screwed-up, and utterly fascinating Alaska Young, who is an event unto herself. She pulls Pudge into her world, launches him into the Great Perhaps, and steals his heart.



Favourite Quote: “The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.”
