Looking For Alaska by John Green


Another John Green novel, another awesome book. Duh. Amazing, devastating, breath catching, inspiring, and compelling. It's all of that and more. I swear, I have no clue how John Green writes such amazing and empathetic books that stir you right down to your heart.

So, customary things first. John Green, author of The Fault in Our Stars, An Abundance of Katherines, Will Grayson Will Grayson, and Looking For Alaska, is great. He's amazing. He's awesome. Alright, on with the book.

Miles Halter, the protagonist is fascinated with last words. Plus he's had enough with his safe life at home.So when he goes off to boarding school, lots of changes await him. Including clever, funny, screwed up and dead sexy Alaska Young. Alaska Young will pull Miles Halter into her labyrinth and shoot him into the Great Perhaps. Tragic, hilarious, and touching all at once, this book will make you laugh and cry at the same time, exactly like The Fault in Our Stars, except without cancer. 'Nuff said.

Once you pick this book up you will not be able to put it down until you finish the whole book. Be warned. I recommend this book to every single teen and older in the world. Yes, there are mentions about drugs and such, but get over it. Facts of life.

Absolutely amazing book. Tons of plot, enough romance, and adventure. It's a story to keep anyone up until 3am reading.

***I give this book a 101 out of 10!!!***
