Before: Miles 'Pudge' Halter is done with his big non-event excuse for a life when he arrives at Culver Creek Boarding School and meets the gorgeous, clever, funny, self-destructive, screwed up, and fascinating Alaska Young. After: Nothing will ever be the same . . .
An award-winning, genre-defining, and stunning debut, Looking for Alaska is a modern classic coming-of-age story that brilliantly chronicles the indelible impact one life can have one another, and marked bestselling author John Green’s arrival as a groundbreaking voice in contemporary young adult fiction.
"What sings and soars in this arrestingly told tale is Green's mastery of language." -- Kirkus
